Making Headlines, Live: Calumet Media Streams QCNA's Career Day

Last Friday, the Quebec Community Newspaper Association (QCNA) hosted their annual general meeting at the Château Cartier hotel in Aylmer, and Calumet Media was right there in the thick of it, helping stream the entire event live on YouTube. Beyond the usual business, the QCNA also held a Job Fair and a lively panel discussion, all designed to spark interest in journalism careers across our communities.

We know what you’re thinking: journalism careers, how does that affect my local Quebec business? While the panel discussions featured a dynamic mix of newspaper and radio professionals—including Sophie Kuijper Dickson, editor of The Equity—and educators, the bigger picture here for entrepreneurs is the power of live communication. Calumet Media’s role in making this event accessible to a wider audience, no matter where they were, highlights a valuable tool for any local business owner.

Whether you’re launching a new product, hosting a community event, conducting a live Q&A with customers, or offering a virtual workshop, live streaming breaks down geographical barriers. It’s a direct line to your audience, building engagement and trust in real-time without needing everyone physically in the same room. We handled the technical heavy lifting for the QCNA, ensuring a smooth, professional broadcast, so their important message could shine without a hitch.

The full stream is about three hours long (with a few natural breaks, so feel free to jump around!). If you’re curious about the future of local news or just want to see how a professional live stream looks in action, grab a coffee and check it out:
