CitizenSHIFT and Parole citoyenne, social active web initiatives from the NFB have launched their very own blogs! Now you can interact with those working behind the scenes to get quality, grassroots media for you to watch, listen, read, and share.
Check out CitizenSHIFT's blog : The Basement
And Parole citoyenne's blog: Je-Nous-Vous

CitizenShift is a unique media integrated social platform that aims to connect with, and engage citizens for insightful, constructive debate, through creative storytelling online.

CitizenShift takes the form of a web magazine that integrates:
video
audio
photography
blogs
text and other media formats

CitizenShift gives viewers an information-rich, entertaining experience, where issues are explored on a grassroots level, are contextualized, debated, and tell a story that make people think, and hopefully, react. CitizenShift maximizes on new technology to further democratize media that can affect social change.

The site is driven primarily by documentary filmmaking, and the belief that access to media can be an empowering resource for individuals and communities alike. We hope this site can be a tool for social transformation and a common space where filmmakers, creative people, thinkers, and active citizens can be creative, gather information, share knowledge, reflect, express themselves, be entertained, or interact with others to exchange ideas and debate relevant social issues.
