ArmchairMayor.ca partners with CFJC Today to expand civic soapbox

cfjctodayFirst we take NewsKamloops, then we take CFJC Today.

Those words are borrowed from Leonard Cohen as a tongue-in-cheek way of saying ArmchairMayor.ca expands its audience as of today via the popular CFJC Today website.

Following the demise of NewsKamloops.com at the end of September, ArmchairMayor.ca was fired up again to make sure there was a venue for the local columnists who had contributed faithfully first to The Armchair Mayor News and then to NewsKamloops.

Now, we have a new partnership with CFJC Today. Starting now (Nov. 16, 2016), Mel Rothenburger’s Armchair Mayor column will be published on CFJC Today along with Bill McQuarrie’s Plain Rhetoric, David Charbonneau’s Eyeview and Daniela Ginta’s The Way I see it.

Those columns will also still appear on ArmchairMayor.ca via a click-through to the CFJC site. As well, however, ArmchairMayor will remain active and continue publishing the other contributors that have become an integral part of the site.

Mel Rothenburger will also do a weekly on-air editorial on CFJC-TV.

And, we’ll have access via ArmchairMayor.ca to editorials by James Peters and Doug Collins of CFJC.

We look forward to this new partnership and hope our readers will enjoy it.

  2. Forgot to mention, adding a comment to the various op-pieces in the Armchairnews is easy and sensible.
    On the CFJC site you need to cross-connect via a third “party” which is, personally, a big turn-off.

  3. Sound good as long as they are not in the “driver seat”. CFJC-TV and affiliated are about the ads not about discussion/information. But hopefully they will get better with this partnership.
