Canadians get much of their information about the political system through the media, giving the media an important agenda-setting role. Since media companies filter out information about certain political views and activities as well as disseminating them, it is important for political scientists to scrutinize what the media are saying and to try to determine what the public opinion really is. In this section of the Canadian Politics site, you will be able to connect to a range of media, journalism, and public opinion sites.
