The Wire Report covers government decision-making, regulatory oversight, legal rulings, infrastructure and technology. Designed for the players in Canada’s communications media landscape—from bureaucrats to politicians, business leaders to regulatory bodies, and academics to investors—the Wire Report’s niche reporting covers not just politics and policy, but the people who are making and affected by decisions in the telecom, broadcasting and the digital sectors.
The Wire Report is independently owned by Hill Times Publishing Inc. and run by an experienced, independent editorial team. We have no positions to advance, no biases to nurture.

Our unique, comprehensive and independent coverage is based on access-to-information requests, interviews with industry sources, in-person coverage of CRTC hearings, Parliamentary committee meetings, industry conferences and announcements, time spent digging through regulatory and court documents, and more. Independent reporting means news you can trust.
