Key Messages Disjunctures occur between what is covered by the Canadian news media and empirical studies of environmental threats to communities. Canadian newspapers overtly ignore and subtly downplay through discourse environmental threats to marginalized local communities faced with pollution. A wide array of avenues for future research are suggested to contrast different forms of news media and compare the scale of both coverage and discourse
