Join us March 30 for frank talk and urgent collaboration as we ready ourselves for the 2019 federal election campaign.

Begin the day with BuzzFeed editor Craig Silverman and a frontline briefing on the world of fake news and online misinformation.

Get a preview of what’s to come in 2019 from a panel moderated by CTV Ottawa Bureau Chief Joyce Napier, featuring academics, pollsters and close observers of the political and digital landscape.

Close the day with CBC’s Rosemary Barton and a lightning round on what we can do about it. We’ll hear from newsroom leaders from The Logic (Murad Hemmadi), theToronto Star (Susan Delacourt), the Discourse (Lindsay Sample), National Observer (Mike De Souza)the Ottawa Citizen (Michelle Richardson).

And we want to hear from you.
