The Canadian Media Guild is a democratic trade union, duly recognized and certified under federal and provincial labour legislation.  We currently have nearly six thousand members, all of whom work in the Canadian media.  We have collective agreements with the following employers including several hundred members who work at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation on a freelance basis:

The Aboriginal Peoples Television Network   Canadian Broadcasting Corporation / Société Radio-Canada   Canadian Broadcasting Corporation / Société Radio-Canada

Agence France-Presse   The Canadian Press   Thomson Reuters

ZoomerMedia   SHAW Media   CJRC Radio Gatineau

La Television Educative Et Culturelle De L’Ontario Francais   TV Ontario

Our members hold a wide variety of jobs.  They are the announcers who read the news on air or determine and create the content of the programs themselves.  They are administrative support staff, information technology professionals, camera operators, audio engineers, editors, photographers, graphics designers, and customer service representatives to name a few.  Much of what you see in your daily newspapers, on television, radio or new media sites comes to you thanks to the hard work of Canadian Media Guild members.
