Viewpoints
«Viewpoints» is the latest podcast and news magazine produced by the Community Radio Fund of Canada. It provides an overview of what’s happening across Canada, thanks to some 20 radio reporters posted across the country (British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario, North West Territories, Québec, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia) and working for the Local Journalism Initiative (LJI). The Local Journalism Initiative (LJI) supports the production of original civic journalism news content that covers the diverse needs of underserved communities across Canada. Politics, society, environment, community, arts and culture take the air on «Viewpoints» hosted by Boris Chassagne. The Community Radio Fund of Canada works in collaboration with the National Campus and Community Radio Association (NCRA/ANREC).

In Sackville, New Brunswick, EOS Eco-Energy, an environmental organization, faces an uncertain funding future. To Nova Scotia, where a pilot project concludes with flying colors. The YourHealthNS app will be expanded to all Nova Scotians. In Ontario, a citizen committee urges Kitchener’s City Council to declare social isolation and loneliness, as an epidemic. And we’ll stay in Central Canada where the Elora Singers are all smiles, as they celebrate the 45th Elora Festival and the 127,000 dollar boost they received from the Trillium Foundation.
Thanks to Rick Conrad, Kate Stockmann, M. P. Holmes, and Erica Butler. To our national editors, Maureen McEwan and Victoria Fenner. Host and producer, Boris Chassagne. Viewpoints is brought to you by the Community Radio Fund of Canada and your local radio station.
