Introducing PaulMartinTime.ca
PaulMartinTime.ca is an independent source of news, analysis and humour about our new Prime Minister. We're living in Paul Martin Time; we might as well know what that is.
HALIFAX, Canada -- December 12, 2003 -- On the day Paul Martin is scheduled to be sworn in as Prime Minister, the comprehensive online destination for news and analysis about Paul Martin was unveiled: PaulMartinTime.ca.
"As of today, Canadians have a Prime Minister that they don't know very much about, in terms of his character or his policies," said Rob Maguire, a researcher working on PaulMartinTime.ca. "With PaulMartinTime.ca, we're providing Canadians with a non-partisan source of news coverage and analysis that wasn't available before."
The name of the site is inspired by PaulMartinTimes.ca, an effort by the Paul Martin leadership campaign to present their story directly to the public. "Instead of presenting Paul's public relations spiel, we'll be keeping track of his movements by presenting them in the context of his actual policies, past and present," said writer Dave Ron.
The web site will also feature discussion forums and reader submissions. One section, the Martintrospection Blog, invites readers to try to understand Paul's point of view by writing weblog entries from the point of view of the Prime Minister. Inspired by the Prime Minister's own "blog" entries, the blog invites visitors to speculate about what's going on in Martin's head.
Video and audio webcasts will also be featured on the site.
"We think that PaulMartinTime.ca will play an exciting role in Canadian discourse in the coming months," said web developer and researcher Dru Oja Jay. "We hope to combine debate about our national priorities with a focus on the facts on the ground."

Ceci est un média alternatif de publication ouverte. Le collectif CMAQ, qui gère la validation des contributions sur le Indymedia-Québec, n'endosse aucunement les propos et ne juge pas de la véracité des informations. Ce sont les commentaires des Internautes, comme vous, qui servent à évaluer la qualité de l'information. Nous avons néanmoins une
Politique éditoriale
, qui essentiellement demande que les contributions portent sur une question d'émancipation et ne proviennent pas de médias commerciaux.
This is an alternative media using open publishing. The CMAQ collective, who validates the posts submitted on the Indymedia-Quebec, does not endorse in any way the opinions and statements and does not judge if the information is correct or true. The quality of the information is evaluated by the comments from Internet surfers, like yourself. We nonetheless have an
Editorial Policy
, which essentially requires that posts be related to questions of emancipation and does not come from a commercial media.
