“What do you do with someone with an allergy? What do you do with someone who’s immunocompromised, or someone who for religious reasons…or deep convictions, decided that no, they’re not going to get a vaccine? We’re not a country that makes vaccination mandatory.”~ Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Brandon Gonez Show, May 9, 2021
Given how the media bailout has turned the press into an extension of the government propaganda apparatus, why would the Liberals stop now?
Conservative leadership frontrunner Pierre Poilievre responded on Thursday to an attack article by Global News, where he called out their bias and called the outlet a “Liberal mouthpiece.”
While observing Canadian politics over the past five years, certain tactics and trends employed by government-media can be identified. One of the most insidious goes like this:
“Accuse your opponent of that which you indulge in on a regular basis.”
Few examples are more prescient than accusations from government and media regarding so-called “conspiracy theories.” At this stage of the game, such theories can be characterized as “anything Justin Trudeau and his Liberal Cabinet do not like.”
‘Shame on those responsible’: Float in Sundre, Alta. rodeo parade called out as racist
I see representations of Trudeau and Singh on a manure spreader labeled The Liberal. That’s not racist. That’s an accurate depiction of the LPC.
“It is not just the government that reminds me of the Islamic Republic. The current state of the legacy media, paid for by Justin Trudeau, is just as bad as anything I saw in Iran, arguably worse.”
“If I hadn’t seen the truth with my own eyes while on the ground here in Ottawa I would not be able to believe the level of lies and fake news being spread.”
The legacy media has a double standard when it comes to covering protests in Canada. According to the media, protesters on the political right are “angry and racist” but protesters on the left are righteous and worthy of interviews. Plus, a recent protest in Brampton debunks the media’s fake and dishonest narrative of “angry and racist” protests targeting leftist politicians.
Canadian mainstream media, which is itself subsidized by the government, was caught spreading fake news stories about the Freedom Convoy.
Of course they did, the directions came directly from the PMO.
While there were abuses at residential schools—which were a result of the Canadian government’s desire to provide free compulsory education to children living on reservations where there were no schools—what we’ve seen is a bunch of crazy lies.
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was forced to cancel plans to attend a fundraising dinner on Tuesday evening after two speakers at the event said protesters hurled racial slurs at the mostly South Asian attendees entering a convention centre in Surrey, B.C.
Trudeau did not enter the building and spoke to a crowd for about three minutes by Zoom instead of making a speech in person.
He said no one should be intimidated or stopped from exercising their democratic freedoms “because that’s what this country is all about.”
Funny thing is there seems to be no video record of the alleged slurs that I can find, that sort of thing would be fire on Twitter. Please prove me wrong.

Smells like LPC propaganda served up by a bought-off press.
Have you heard the latest from the chattering classes about Pierre Poilievre?
They have proof that he’s a racist and a white supremacist because he used the term Anglo Saxon.
I wish I was making this up but there are actual stories out there making this claim by supposedly serious journalists.
We’ve all seen this movie. The political class & their left media minions are attempting to paint all criticism of immigration policy as white supremacist and the result of The Great Replacement bugaboo. God forbid you attempt to defend your culture, only Quebec and other government approved victims are allowed to do that. And heaven help us if you defend the rule of law against the left’s open borders madness. Didn’t you absorb the learnings of your CRT indoctrination class you evil white skinned oppressor?
In Canada our mainstream political parties and their corporate cronies favour a mass immigration policy that furthers their interests not yours. They care only about meeting their magic numbers and not the consequences of their choices. The following statement will have me labeled a proponent of The Great Replacement Theory: Sound immigration policy should benefit citizens not corporate earnings or the vote whoring lust of venal politicians. Call me what you want, I won’t stop discussing our destructive immigration policy.
Unfortunately for Canada dissent is being criminalized. Time to ditch your oppressor’s political parties.
It’s time that progressive politicians condemn left-wing extremist violence with the same lack of equivocation as most conservatives denounce right-wing extremism
Former Conservative minister and senior RBC executive Michael Fortier and his family were asleep in their Montreal home at 1:30 a.m. on May 4, when he was woken by a neighbour banging on his drain pipe to warn him that the Jaguar and Land Rover parked in the driveway were on fire.
Well John that would require that your associates in the media also condemn “left-wing violence” and call out progressive politicians when they fail to do so. Facts are that the media for the most part are willing minions of the political class that seeks to criminalize “right-wing views.” Antifa, BLM, the Eco-Terrorists etc are their foot soldiers and they will continue to willingly turn a blind eye.
Unless Canada intends to put most of its news media permanently under some form of government subsidy, Ottawa must get serious about a long-term plan for the sustainability of the industry. And that means not forcing people to give news away for free when other people are trying to build subscription-based business models.
Everyone knows the devastating impact the technological revolution of the past 30 years has had on, in particular, traditional newspapers. Thousands of jobs have been lost—and not just by journalists. Dozens of titles, many with long and distinguished histories, have slipped beneath the waves of change while just as many are poised to follow.
This week, Canadians tuned into the Conservative Party’s boring and uneventful leadership debate. We don’t blame you if you tuned out of the debate, but you may have missed the media scrum with candidates after the debate, in which independent media journalists ran circles around so-called reporters from the legacy media. While the legacy media pushed their favourite pet cause – climate change – independent media asked candidates thorough questions to help Canadians get a better understanding of the candidates.
