There are 22 community stations participating across the country in the Local Journalism Initiative that is being run through the Community Radio Fund of Canada.  As part of our support to the program, we are hosting two staff at the NCRA/ANREC office until at least March 2021 to help stations complete the project.

The National Campus and Community Radio Association is thrilled with the outcome of the Canadian Federations of Students and York Federation of Students’ court case against the Ford government’s Student Choice Initiative (“SCI”).

“The Student Choice Initiative has had a destructive impact on campus stations across Ontario leading to loss of operating funds and lay-offs. The SCI directly interfered with our campus stations’ ability to conduct the normal activities of supporting and training students across the province.” - Barry Rooke, NCRA/ANREC Executive Director

The results are in from the biggest PSA campaign launched by the NCRA/ANREC. We had 50 stations participate to broadcast for free several PSA's outlining Canadian facts about the changing environment. We reached over 500,000 Canadians with a PSA played 5800 times!
