So I'm delighted to announce today another significant investment in local public service journalism in communities where CBC has little to no presence. This year, CBC News will add 33 local journalists and create 11 new bureaus, increasing its Canadian footprint from 66 to 77 locations. Taken together, it's a historic investment in local journalism by the CBC. (Evan Mitsui/CBC)To be clear, we are committed to preserving and improving on the diversity of trusted news sources that local communities can rely on. In order to showcase all of this new local journalism, we recently launched 44 additional regional web pages on CBCNews.ca.
