In early April, Egale Canada wrote an open letter calling on the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to begin public consultations on the removal of Fox News from the list of non-Canadian programming authorized for distribution in Canada due to Fox News being in clear violation of Canadian broadcasting standards - as Fox News incites hate, violence, and discrimination in its programming against 2SLGBTQI people and other equity-deserving communities. On May 4, 2023, the CRTC opened a Part 1 Application (2023-0210-8 - Egale Canada) for the removal of Fox News from the list of non-Canadian programming services authorized for distribution in Canada. TAKE ACTION TODAY! Interested parties and the public can submit their comments through the CRTC’s website until June 2, 2023. Use the CRTC's intervention comment form to stand with Egale in calling for the removal of Fox News from the list of non-Canadian programming services authorized for distribution in Canada. |
