Publisher Rudyard Griffiths and Editor-at-Large Sean Speer discuss The Ottawa Declaration on Canadian Journalism, an open call by a number of journalists and digital news outlets to reject government subsidies. They explain why they signed the declaration, including the negative consequences of public subsidies such as the harm to innovation and the public's trust in the news media. They also discuss Prime Minister Trudeau's recent comments that housing values cannot fall for current homeowners and the inherent tension with his government's efforts to improve housing affordability.
The Roundtable features The Hub's publisher, Rudyard Griffiths and editor-at-large, Sean Speer. The Roundtable is produced and edited by The Hub's content editor, Amal Attar-Guzman.
