CBC News, established in 1941, serves as Canada’s publicly funded news and information provider. Operating nationwide, our coverage spans local and global events, offering a unique Canadian viewpoint on current affairs. Our objective is to inform, enlighten, and engage citizens in the democratic process.
With a presence in over 75 local offices and stations across Canada, as well as in key international cities like London, Mexico City, Mumbai, New York City, and Washington, our journalists are dedicated to delivering comprehensive news coverage. We deploy temporary bureaus, known as pop-up bureaus, when specific stories or regions necessitate additional attention.
