Vanessa Destiné is a journalist, commentator and activist. She started out as a journalist at Radio-Canada and then at Québecor, and now she is a media freelancer, which allows her to work for Radio-Canada, Noovo, ARTV and Télé-Québec (where she educates youth on fake online news). Vanessa has managed to carve out a place for herself in a homogeneous industry that is often hostile toward those who don’t fit the “mould” and she is not scared to express her opinions, even if they go against the status quo.
