Ideas 53:59 Lisa LaFlamme: In Defence of DemocracyAs a journalist, Lisa LaFlamme says reporting the truth has always been at the core of how she approaches a story. In her 35-year career in journalism, she has witnessed democracy at its most resilient and at its most vulnerable. I heard an expression the other day that democracy is such a cliffhanger right now, that even Gen Z is paying attention. It is the public's right to have accurate, fair, unbiased information. Lisa LaFlamme has won 13 Canadian Screen Awards including the Gordon Sinclair Award for her 'exceptional body of work in broadcast journalism.'
