The Canadian Journalism Project (CJP) and its websites,
J-Source.ca (English) and
ProjetJ.ca (French), are projects of
The Canadian Journalism Foundation in collaboration with
leading journalism schools and organizations across Canada.
Our goal is to enable a national conversation about the achievement of, and challenges to, excellence in Canadian journalism and provide a convenient and trustworthy source of information and commentary. Launched in the spring of 2007, the site provides a source for news, research, commentary, advice, discussion and resources. It also includes links to other organizations that recognize and support excellence in journalism.
J-Source and
ProjetJ will always be works in progress. Your comments, suggestions and offers of support are very
welcome.

Initial development of the Canadian Journalism Project was made possible by grants from the Edward S. Rogers Sr. Graduate School for Advanced Communications at Ryerson University, the Canadian Media Research Consortium and the Ryerson Research Assistants Fund. The database of award-winning journalism was developed under a project grant from the Faculty of Communication and Design, Ryerson University with essential support from Ryerson's Digital Media Projects team under the leadership of Mark Huras. Special thanks to founding Editorial Committee members Mary Doyle, Brian Gabrial, Abby Goodrum, Linda Kay, Bill Reynolds, and Stephen Ward.
