Thank you, Martin.
I will quickly read the motion in two languages, because most people don't seem to have it with them right now. It's going to go into the record.
This is from Martin Champoux:
Whereas:
(1) The news media is in crisis due to the dominance of foreign digital companies;
(2) Hundreds of newsroom positions across Canada have been cut since the beginning of the year, and hundreds more are likely to be cut in the near future;
(3) Canadian broadcasters, journalists’ associations, news unions and many experts agree that urgent action must be taken to ensure adequate, diversified news coverage in all regions of Quebec and Canada;
That, pursuant to Standing Order 108(2), the committee undertake a study to determine the appropriateness of holding a national forum on the media and that the committee determine its terms of reference.
That the committee hold a minimum of four meetings and report its recommendations to the House.
Shall I continue?
