Have your say about changes to federal magazine programs

It's April, already, and a deadline looms to have your say about proposals for re-designing the Publications Assistance Program (PAP) and the Canada Magazine Fund (CMF). The Department of Canadian Heritage has made specific proposals for reform and is seeking comment.

While various industry interest groups have participated in roundtables held across the country and will be making formal responses, individual publishers and others with a stake in magazines should not be slow to wade into the discussion. It is critical to the way magazines are going to be delivered and supported in the years to come.

You can read the proposals and the background information here. And you can comment on them at periodicals@canadianheritage.gc.ca.

You have until April 25.
