    Running head: NEWS MEDIA FRAMING OF BILL C-51 News Media Framing of Bill C-51: A Content Analysis Ashley Stewart Major research paper submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Master of Arts in Communication Date: August 17, 2015 Department of Communication Faculty of Arts University of Ottawa Supervisor: Dr. Sherry Ferguson © Ashley Stewart, Ottawa, Canada, 2015 NEWS MEDIA FRAMING OF BILL C-51 i Abstract The government introduced a controversial new Anti-Terrorism Act (Bill C-51) on January 30, 2015, in response to the changing nature of threats to Canadians. This study sets out to examine how the mainstream media framed the debate over Bill C-51 from the introduction of the bill to the government’s introduction of amendments on March 31, 2015. Using agenda setting and framing theories, this study looks at the relationship between the media agenda and the policy agenda. The bill received significant coverage over this period, dominating the media agenda. Using content analysis, this study conducts an in-depth analysis of The Globe and Mail’s coverage of the issue to examine which stakeholders and opinion leaders were most frequently cited, the major arguments for the legislation and the perceived shortcomings and risks associated with the legislation, and the number and nature of the suggested solutions (to make the legislation more acceptable) that found their way into the government’s proposed amendments. Key findings indicate that, although the government introduced amendments that addressed some of the concerns expressed, these amendments did not include the most frequently mentioned concern: the lack of Parliamentary oversight.
