Founded in 1990, The Canadian Journalism Foundation (CJF) is a non-profit organization that promotes excellence in Canadian journalism by celebrating outstanding journalistic achievement. Our signature events include an annual awards program featuring a must-attend annual industry gala where Canada's top newsmakers meet Canada's top news people. Through J-Talks, our popular speaker's series, we facilitate dialogue among journalists, business people, academics, and students about the role of the media in Canadian society and the ongoing challenges for media in the digital era. The foundation also supports journalism websites, J-Source.ca (English) and ProjetJ.ca (French) and by fostering opportunities for journalism education, training and research.
