Corus Entertainment announced the elimination of 43 unionized television positions as part of a broader reorganization. Most of the affected roles are in Western Canada; Corus says the changes are intended to improve efficiency and sustain local news delivery, while unions and critics warn the cuts deepen local news deserts. The layoffs come as the company faces declining ad revenue, a pending recapitalization proposal, and regulatory scrutiny; stakeholders including Unifor and minority shareholders raised concerns that cuts precede ownership changes and may undermine regional journalism capacity.
