Yes, Carney Daddy (Moscrop) is flat out creepy, but I guess the subtext is that Pierre is the creepy weird scary uncle that you never want to be near.

I'm just pleased that this mentioned that #Postmedia is actively attacking the liberals. That needs to be stated over and over until Canadians bankrupt the yankee "fuck canada" propaganda corp.

Oh, and Rachel is interviewed.

@dmacphee #Postmedia is an American hedge fund founded by Anthony Melchiorre with a large foothold in newspapers and tabloids, known for its close ties to the Republican Party, and it currently owns 2/3 of our #CdnMedia and controls what we read. It is not interested in advocating for Canadians nor in positioning political issues accurately. And we have #ChairmanHarper to thank.

@MEActNOW Hope all US foods will be banned here in Canada #PMMC. Our #CdnMedia which is 2/3 owned by an American hedge fund #Postmedia, founded by Anthony Melchiorre with a large foothold in newspapers and tabloids, is known for its close ties to the Republican Party. It also controls what we read. Will they be reporting the danger this entails? I highly doubt it.

@cbcnews @calgary-cbcnews Our #CdnMedia which is 2/3 owned by an American hedge fund #Postmedia, was founded by Anthony Melchiorre and has a large foothold in newspapers and tabloids. It is known for its close ties to the Republican Party and it controls what we read. US interests do no,want to advocate for Canadians nor position political issues accurately. So of course, #FourthEstateFilth like #RebelNews gets front and centre seats.

This is all bullshit.

#Postmedia divided the country, by turning one of our biggest newspapers into an #American #Mouthpiece.

#StephenHarper divided #Canada, just as he's helping undermine democracies all over the world with his #IDU organization.

#MaximeBernier, #ErinOtoole, and finally #PierrePoilievre divided the country with their embrace of #Trumpist #WhiteNationalism.

#Trudeau tried to keep us together, and did pretty good considering the opposition.

@cheridinovo 2/3 of our Canadian media is owned by #Postmedia, an American hedge fund, founded by Anthony Melchiorre. It has a large foothold in newspapers and tabloids & is known for its close ties to the Republican Party. This is who controls what we read. They are not interested in advocating for Canadians nor in positioning political issues accurately. And we have #ChairmanHarper to thank.

the worst traitors of all may actually be in our own news media. “While allegations of interference involving elected officials have dominated public and media discourse, the reality is that misinformation and disinformation pose an even greater threat to democracy,” wrote Justice Marie-Josée Hogue in her long-awaited report on the subject that was released this past week in no fewer than seven volumes. “Some spread disinformation about candidates and elected officials who express views that diverge from their own interests. Their goal is to try and prevent these candidates from getting elected, and to affect policy choices and positions.”

canadiandimension.comHere’s one easy trick to combat foreign political interference in our mediaPostmedia has largely replaced local news coverage with paid content, including a long-running campaign for the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers, and under new CEO Andrew Macleod ordered its editors to hew even harder to the right politically. We are thus in effect paying foreign-owned media to feed us propaganda, an irony perhaps not lost on Justice Hogue.
