FRIENDS of Canadian Broadcasting - Welcome!
Description
Formed in 1985, FRIENDS of Canadian Broadcasting is an independent, Canada-wide, non-partisan voluntary organization supported by 66,000 households whose mission is to defend and enhance the quality and quantity of Canadian programming in the Canadian audio-visual system. FRIENDS is not affiliated with any broadcaster or political party.
FRIENDS relies upon individuals for donations to finance its watchdog role, public policy initiatives, public opinion leadership and research activities directed at our priorities. The largest single gift to FRIENDS in 2002 was $1,200 from an individual donor. We do not accept contributions from organizations which hold a licence from the Canadian Radio-Television Telecommunications Commission (CRTC), Ottawa’s broadcast regulatory agency, or from organizations affiliated with licensees.
FRIENDS of Canadian Broadcasting is a not-for profit organization directed by a Steering Committee. Noreen Golfman, Associate Dean of Graduate Studies at Memorial University, chairs our Steering Committee and Ian Morrison is our spokesperson and manager of ongoing operations.
