Our specialty is the intersection of business, technology, and government, with a special focus
on the regulatory sphere. We provide daily coverage of breaking news and longer-form features
about the wireless, wireline, broadcast and streaming sectors, as well as digital advertising,
privacy, copyright and other Internet-related issues.
The Wire Report publishes exclusive stories with in-depth analysis you won’t find anywhere
else.
With an Ottawa office steps away from Parliament Hill and just across the river from the CRTC, we
offer direct coverage of developments at the CRTC and the House of Commons and Senate. We also
keep a keen eye on the Copyright Board, the Federal Court and Federal Court of Appeal,
Innovation Canada’s spectrum management branch, and Canadian Heritage.
Our unique, comprehensive and independent coverage is also based on access-to-information
requests, interviews with industry sources, in-person coverage of hearings, Parliamentary
committee meetings, industry conferences and announcements, time spent digging through
regulatory and court documents, and more.
Our audience includes decision makers, policy analysts, consultants, regulatory and legal staff,
financial analysts, communications lawers, executives and academics across the country.
Since the launch of The Wire Report at the start of 2010, this premium, online business news
service has quickly become the most authoritative and respected in its niche.
The Wire Report’s website represents the largest and only dedicated archive of its kind in
Canada, with a searchable collection of news reports from 2000 to today.
