publicbroadcasting.ca

Publicbroadcasting.ca strives to be a source of Canadian arts, culture, media and sometimes politics. The focus is on the emerging and independent and the content is almost exclusively and unapologetically Canadian.
The home page is dominated by the publicbroadcasting.ca blog - a group blog that welcomes new, volunteer, contributors from all over Canada. The site receives no funding or grants from any public or private organizations, and no ad revenue. The writers are free to write what they like about anything they like. The only editorial rule is that they can't do anything that is actually illegal.
the Notice Board is for posting upcoming events, new releases, calls for assistance, job postings (paid or volunteer), casting calls etc., by Canadian artists or their representatives, cultural organizations, non-profits and educational institutions. If you fall into one of these categories and would like to submit something, send it to [email protected] - at this point the notice board has not been abused by spammers or people posting unrelated material. If this becomes a problem the notice board will be moderated and notices will have to be approved
