“The LJI reporter will be assigned to the underserved communities of Morrin,
Carbon, Rowley, Rumsey, Hussar, Standard, Rosebud, Delia, Craigmyle, Big Valley,
Rockyford, Starland County, Kneehill County, and Wheatland County. Civic
institutions they would be covering could include:
– Provincial and Queens Bench Court
– Drumheller Town Council
– Civic Councils in: Delia, Morrin, Hussar, Carbon, Standard, Big Valley, Munson
and Rockyford
– County Councils: Starland County, Wheatland County, Kneehill County
– School Boards including Golden Hills, Prairieland, Christ the Redeemer and
other regional governance boards (i.e. Solid Waste)
The reporter will consistently attend municipal council meetings and school
board meetings. The reporter will also explore how these bodies interact with
provincial and federal decisions. We will brand the content within our
publication and online with place lines or special headers distinguishing
regional news or school news. Our coverage of schools will go beyond simply
meeting coverage but flesh out important stories that affect their community.
On the civic side, our coverage will also go further than simple meeting
coverage, it will also encompass coverage of projects within the community,
issues in front of the council, and how council’s decisions affects residents.”

×

“The ECA Review will position the new full-time journalist in Hanna in their
proposed Business Hub. The addition of a full-time LJI reporter with a
journalism degree would augment and further expand the number of communities and
civic meetings the ECA Review could cover. The publisher, office manager,
reporter and new hire will work as a team to add new communities and realign
current assignments to minimize travel times for full-time journalists and
freelance reporters. Objectives:
1) Expand coverage of civic meetings in eight towns and villages and two school
boards;
2) Establish physical presence in Hanna, similar to our satellite office in
Stettler;
3) Provide more breaking news stories and features throughout the region;
4) Connect with more community leaders and residents.”

×

“The LJI reporter will cover La Ronge and the communities and industries
surrounding it, including First Nations communities. Ideally the reporter will
be from a First Nations community in the area and have a working knowledge of
the major Cree dialect. We will create a special section on the National
Observer website for this coverage, and frame it with an explanation that this
is a special project funded by LJI. This section will have its own URL
NationalObserver.com/LaRonge and it will have localized branding and feel to
it.”

×

Cardston Alberta and surrounding communities: Aetne, Glenwood, hill Spring,
Mountain View, Spring Coulee, Magrath and Raymond. The LJI reporter will be
expected to attend all major civic events and meetings including town and county
councils plus the local court and school board. He will also do follow-up
stories.

×

Town & Country News is a weekly heritage newspaper established in 1956. We are
the only local news source serving communities across the County of Grande
Prairie. Our readership area covers 5,863 sq. kilometres and is sparsely
populated and includes five municipalities: Sexsmith, Beaverlodge, Hythe,
Wembley and the County of Grande Prairie. The LJI reporter will be required to
regularly attend municipal, band and school board meetings to produce content
that objectively drills down to the core issues. We will also cover the issues
that may arise from the Alberta government asking for increased inter-municipal
collaboration from all jurisdictions. We will also increase coverage of our
local First Nations community (Horse Lake).

×

One full-time reporter will cover the two islands. When possible, this reporter
will cover the other remote islands in this underserved area as well. We will
create a special section on the National Observer website for this coverage, and
frame it with an explanation that this is a special project funded by LJI. This
section will have its own URL NationalObserver.com/CortesQuadra and it will have
localized branding and feel to it.

×

The oil industry has and enormous impact on all aspects of life and also local
politics. The LJI will allow to report on civic issues of a wide variety,
including the oil industry, municipal politics, education and indigenous
communities.

×

The publisher will use the LJI funding to add six hours per week to the existing
reporter to allow for more detailed RCMP coverage as well as begin coverage of
proceedings in provincial court and Court of Queen’s Bench in Hinton that would
include being present for docket day and working with the Crown prosecutor’s
office and the court system to provide coverage of any relevant cases that go to
trial. The reporter will also cover our two school divisions (GYPSD and
Evergreen’s Catholic).

×

The LJI reporter will cover council meetings for Pincher Creek, Pikani Nation,
Village of Hill Spring and Village of Glenwood. We also will have regular
sessions with provincial and federal government and cover meetings of the
Livingstone Rage and Holy Spirit school division, local police and fire
services.

×

Great West Newspapers owns the Gazette and approximately 14 other titles in
communities surrounding Edmonton and Calgary. We would like to produce several
series of articles that dig into issues impacting the communities we serve.
These complex issues are ones we have not traditionally had the resources to
take a hard look at. These proposed stories would include localizing decisions
made at the provincial level with deeper looks at how legislation affects the
communities we cover. The reporter would be based out of Great West Newspapers’
head office, which is in St. Albert. They would travel as needed and collaborate
with our other newsrooms across the province for sources and background
information. Our intent is for this reporter to produce a mixture of both
long-form and short-form stories. We envision many series on issues that are
important to Albertans during this reporter’s tenure.

×

The LJI reporter will be responsible for writing concise informative news
stories on breaking news, updates on local issues and events, cover town council
meetings, Pembina Hills School Board District meetings, Chamber of Commerce,
work with RCMP to provide community updates, court proceeding reports, education
articles on Canadian Law and citizen responsibilities, and search out and report
stories on other topics of public interest. The LJI reporter will interview
civic leaders on local, regional, provincial and federal initiatives and
programs. S/he will research civic information including local by-laws,
taxation, citizen responsibilities, seniors programs, youth and family
initiatives, etc.

recreation, leisure, anything that pertains to the community, The Fox Creek
school keeping up to date with school matters and reporting, Fox Creek Chamber

date with court, what’s going on with the community in regards to policing, Any
and all other news in Fox Creek.

This LJI reporter is to serve the Indigenous population of Syilx Territory in
the Okanagan Valley. The gap we intend to fill is in providing in-depth civic
reporting, covering Indigenous institutions and other public institutions that
serve Indigneous citizens. Issues that impact local Indigenous people in Syilx
Territory including but not limited to: (1) the local implications of BC being
the first Canadian province to implement UNDRIP, including local efforts to
establish self determination and economic development; (2) land management and
forestry issues; (3) accountability and efforts being made to address
disproportionately high levels of local children and families impacted by the
child welfare system; (4) local impacts and efforts to address the opioid
epidemic; and (5) economic development initiatives in this large area to provide
insight on how First Nations communities are working to give themselves tools to
become self-reliant as well as providing employment opportunities to their
citizens in ways that reflect their cultural and spiritual values in relation to
the use of their traditional territories.

developing a depth of knowledge and sourcing that will not only provide regular
content related to the justice system for community media, but will result in
more nuanced, balanced and comprehensive coverage of major cases that appear in
these courts as they arise. The LJI reporter assigned to this beat would be
headquartered out of the offices of the Alaska Highway News, where s/he would
have access to office facilities, administrative support and colleagues to
liaise with and be within reach of all necessary courthouses for regular
attendance. S/he would do a daily court docket for all the communities mentioned
in Part “C” above to supplement the community news coverage of 10 different
community newspapers.

The Narwhal proposes to hire an environment beat reporter to provide news
coverage of environmental issues affecting Yukon Territory and the Arctic. No
existing media outlet–be it local, regional or national–has an environment beat
reporter covering issues in Canada’s Arctic. Given the profound ecological
changes underway and huge development projects proposed for the region, this is
a major gap in civic reporting. A dedicated environment reporter based in
Whitehorse can address this gap by filing regular new reports that will be
available to all media and serve the public interest. Due to the high cost of
travel in the region, we are very keen to have a reporter in residence in the
North. The Narwhal’s Yukon/Arctic reporter will monitor and report on the
processes and decisions of the civic institutions that are charged to regulate
industrial developments such as the Yukon Environmental and Socio-Economic
Assessment Board, the Yukon Department of Energy, Mines and Resources, the
Mackenzie Valley Land and Water Board, the National Energy Board, the Impact
Assessment Agency of Canada, and local municipal councils.

×

The Tyee wishes to cover health issues in British Columbia through the Local
Journalism Initiative. BC is a province with a number of major health research
institutions producing new findings at a rapid clip. The population of the same
province is extremely diverse, living differently because of income levels,
cultural practices, geographic locations and job-related challenges to
well-being. Yet BC’s news media has very few dedicated health reporters with the
mission of making such connections. The Tyee is a proven incubator of in-depth
explanatory feature writing, garnering a wide and influential audience. A health
reporter based at The Tyee would be given the resources, editorial support and
platform to mobilize knowledge and bring to attention opportunities to improve
the well-being of British Columbians.

×

both environmentally and economically. Coverage will be balanced and include
both the warnings that need to be heeded but also new solutions that will
provide hope that a greener future is still within reach.

This issue is keenly felt in the Dehcho, where Cabin Radio has recently reported
on shortages of adequate public housing stock, a failure to address deficiencies
in housing, the abandonment of housing, and the infestation of housing with
vermin and bedbugs. However, those housing issues are applicable to almost all
Northwest Territories communities and urgent investment in housing here is both
a federal and territorial priority.

The Intelligencer wishes to cover the town of Trenton through the Local
Journalism Initiative. Trenton is home to a major Canadian Forces Base, gets
little news media coverage while playing an oversized role in the region because
of its military ties. Located just west of Belleville, with a population just
over 20,000, the city is a lively tourist destination in summer. The largest
employer in the city, the military is the main driver of the economy in a busy
region along the Highway 401 corridor. Local government could be better covered,
while gaining access to stories related to the base would broaden the picture of
the Belleville region. The Intelligencer has been covering the area for a long
time. The LJI reporter would work closely with the local editor and staff to
prioritize which communities and stories should be covered. Both breaking news
and investigative journalism would appear in both print and digital platforms.
This type of civic journalism can be accomplished by covering municipal councils

The Pointer wishes to hire an LJI reporter to be assigned to a specific
investigative beat, covering local/provincial land use policies and the
development industry. Peel Region, the focus area of The Pointer, is expected to
grow by approximately 1 million additional residents over the next three
decades, by far the largest single growth-region in the GTA. The public needs
aggressive accountability journalism to ensure that future land use and
development is done with the public interest in mind, not to serve private and
political interests. An LJI reporter will focus on the GTA West Corridor, also
known as the GTA West Highway plan, that certain interests are promoting after
the previous provincial government scrapped the project. The encroachment into
the Greenbelt by certain interests will also be a key focus, along with the
alarming developer take-over of the massive Mississauga lake-front
re-development initiative. Numerous other development plans that do not conform
with sustainable, anti-sprawl, smart growth policies will also be heavily
reported on.

×

The Recorder and Times is seeking an LJI reporter to cover Gananoque and
Leeds-Thousand Islands, located about 50 km west and southwest of Brockville.
While the population is roughly 10,000 to 15,000 total, spread out over the
area, the number of hamlets and villages in the region are not well covered,
particularly the local councils and public meetings. Staying ahead of these
stories and not relying on locals to tip us off when something major is
occurring would provide a better service to the region. We have the contacts and
the audience that would make us a logical choice to offer more journalistic
penetration into the region. The LJI reporter would work closely with the local
editor and staff to prioritize which communities and stories should be covered.
Both breaking news and investigative journalism would appear in print and
digital platforms.

×

The Chatham Voice wishes to hire an LJI reporter to better cover the
Chatham-Kent area. Chatham-Kent council has its regular meetings covered by 2
radio and 1 daily news reporters, usually. But staffing levels at these outlets
just don’t allow for detailed investigative journalism. It’s event-coverage
journalism. At this point, we are unable to attend municipal council meetings or
school board meetings. An LJI reporter would allow the Chatham Voice to delve
deeper and in a more timely fashion into items and issues that come up through
municipal council, as well as the regional boards of education. Currently too
many one-and-done stories take place. Many times, follow-up stories are
warranted, but no one has the personnel to assign to these. The goal is to
provide more information for area residents on what is transpiring here, the
good and the bad, in terms of municipal government and day-to-day delivery of
services.

Peterborough is the fastest-growing city in the country, with a population
increase of 3.1 percent from 2017 to 2018, according to Statistics Canada. Given
the growth and large geographic area, there is an unmet need to cover a wide
range of socioeconomic issues. Currently, the area struggles with sporadic media
coverage that is unable to report on critical issues that impact the area. An
LJI reporter is much needed to cover topics such as education, employment,
economic development and the emerging dynamics between growing student and
senior populations, as well as urban and rural issues. There is a great need to
report on large civic institutions including, but not limited to, Peterborough
Regional Health Centre, Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board, City of
Peterborough, Trent University, Ministry of Natural Resources, etc. While there
area few news outlets in the area, there is a lack of full-time reporters to

The Sudbury Star seeks an LJI reporter to cover Elliot Lake and Espanola,
located 70 km west of Sudbury and with a population of about 20,000. While the
regional economy was once dominated by forestry and mining in particular, the
resource-based industry has given way to the sizeable retail, health and
educational centres in the area. Municipal councils and local governments,
particularly those west of the city of Sudbury operate with little oversight
from the public with limited media coverage. Like many rural areas, the
population is shrinking and the town is fighting to stay afloat as urbanization
draws the population into the bigger cities. The region has also seen a rise in
the number and intensity of forest fires in recent years,m a major threat to the
population centres and industrial community. The LJI reporter would work closely

The Timmins Daily Press wishes to hire an LJI reporter to cover the Timmins and

longer the driver of the economy it once was, the fourth-largest city in
northeastern Ontario continues to thrive as a service centre for the region.
Much like in other parts of Canada, population movement towards larger urban
centres is changing towns. How cities like Timmins deal with a decreasing
population and contracting industries is fodder for stories that are not well
covered. The LJI reporter would work closely with the local editor an staff to
prioritize which communities and stories should be covered. Both breaking news

The Wakaw Recorder proposes to cover Wakaw, Rosthern, Cudworth, Bruno, St. Louis
and One Arrow First Nation and the surrounding rural area, where it has bult
strong relationships with local officials and organizations. Other important
gaps in civic journalism we would cover in the area would be town and local RM
meetings and announcements, as well as functions for the local library and
non-profit organizations. Our detailed plan for civic content will include
weekly town/RM updates, weekly updates from the local MLA office and monthly
updates from the local MP; and also have content driven by issues needing to be
addressed by local authorities, as well as events, meetings, etc. that are
happening in our coverage area. This structure will allow us to cover the
minimum of 5 short articles per week easily.

Through the LJI, the Quad Town Forum proposes to cover four towns, eight
villages and five rural municipalities wholly within our coverage area – along
with numerous ‘organized hamlets’ that fall under RM jurisdiction. I’m
comfortable estimating that a new full-time hire would be able to spend 100-120
hours per month (2.5-3 full work weeks) on municipal council coverage, while
also providing invaluable news coverage and support on other stories (school and
health boards, for example, both of which are based in Regina) with the
remainder of their working hours each month.

×

The StarPhoenix proposes to cover rural issues in two northern towns, 11
northern villages and 11 northern hamlets in northern Saskatchewan.
Unemployment, limited access to services, additions and other ills are big
issues for those living in this area. Areas of focus would be La Lache and the
Village of Pinehouse, where operations are currently under review by a judge due
to allegations of mismanagement. While we would certainly undertake some
reporting in local court coverage, the majority of the work would be covering
the rural municipality and village councils and their related activities. The
LJI reporter would work closely with StarPhoenix editors to prioritize which
communities and stories should be covered, and would be able to tap into the
expertise of our reporting staff. Both breaking news and investigative
journalism would appear in our print and digital platforms.
