Vivian Bercovici: On Oct. 7, terrorists invaded Israel — and their sympathizers took over Canadian streets

Every time I drive on Road 232, a main artery through southern Israel, I see phantoms.

Since moving to a kibbutz in southern Israel in July, Road 232 has become my lifeline, as it is for all residents of a region that is dotted with small towns and villages. This beautiful, pastoral area is where much of Israel’s fresh produce is grown.

And who are the guilty parties.

Canada’s decline is due to the machinations of a corrupt elite.

They are the people who encouraged mass Islamist immigration and surrendered our institutions to the radical liberal-left.

They called us racists and Islamophobes while flooding the nation with incompatible cultures which they in turn championed as equal or  better to our own. 

The made us poor by depressing wages and profiting from the shortages created by their mass immigration scheme.

They made laws to silence dissent and co-opted the news media to further their agenda.

They hate us. Once you accept that it all makes sense.

‘Broken’ news industry faces uncertain future

From disinformation campaigns to soaring scepticism, plummeting trust and economic slumps, the global media landscape has been hit with blow after blow.

World News Day, taking place on Saturday with the support of hundreds of organisations including AFP, aims to raise awareness about the challenges endangering the hard-pressed industry.

Liberals offer the worst possible reaction to CTV’s doctored Poilievre clip

CTV News made a seemingly necessary decision Thursday afternoon in the aftermath of one of the craziest Canadian network-journalism fiascos in recent memory: After an internal investigation, it says it discovered two video editors were involved in “altering a video clip” — which is to say doctoring, truncating and taking entirely out of context a quote from federal Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre about an urgent need to bring down the government.

CTV announced Thursday that it has now parted ways with those editors.

Terry Newman: CTV delivers another shameful example of anti-Poilievre bias

With a federal election that could come any day now, and the Liberal government’s public favour continually waning, some, shall we say, unorthodox media practices appear to be afoot, particularly in terms of how Pierre Poilievre is being presented to Canadian viewers. The Conservatives are always complaining about progressive media bias. This is what they mean.

Liberals call media criticism an ‘attack on Canadians’ after CTV edited Poilievre’s comments

Slimeball

Liberal Government House Leader Karina Gould claimed criticism of media is an “attack on Canadians” after CTV National News was forced to make an on-air apology for deceptive edits, per Blacklock’s Reporter.

They lie about everything. It’s a sickness.

Conservatives ‘won’t engage’ with CTV until network admits ‘malicious editing’ of clip

Conservative MPs will refuse to engage with CTV and its reporters until the network acknowledges that a recent clip of leader Pierre Poilievre was “maliciously” edited.

While CTV issued an apology, Poilievre’s director of media relations Sebastian Skamski said it wasn’t good enough.

CBC’s The National shows hours of political conventions in the US, but only minutes of Canadian gatherings

Multiple political conventions have happened across North America in the last one-and-a-half years, and journalists have been busy covering them.

But while The National, CBC’s flagship program during the nightly news devoted loads of coverage to US conventions while mere minutes to Canadian ones.

I don’t watch their coverage because of CBC’S TDS and its knee-jerk anti-Americanism.

Peter Menzies: Subsidized journalists are praising the government hand that feeds

Some news organizations have begun to bare their teeth and their bias in the fight to retain federal subsidy dollars.

In doing so, they are displaying a willingness to unashamedly defend Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government, in order to preserve the funding regime it established for media unable to adapt to the digital age.

MacDougall: Press must call out PMO’s lies

At some future point, historians will need to judge precisely when the free press died in Canada. And while historians are rarely able to identify the exact moment of an institution’s death, this past week is in with a strong shot.

Not that you’d know it. The much-vaunted “free press” certainly isn’t saying much about its own demise. The mighty Parliamentary Press Gallery, a not-infrequent thorn in my side when I was director of communications to Stephen Harper, has been quiet as a mouse. Strike that. The gallery is the dog that isn’t barking.

DeepDive: New polling shows government funding of the news industry could further erode Canadians’ trust in the media

Canadians are losing their trust in the media. According to a report from the Reuters Institute at the University of Oxford, overall trust in the media among the Canadian population has fallen from 55 percent in 2016 to 40 percent in 2023. Among English-speaking Canadians, trust in the news is even lower with just 37 percent saying they trust the media in 2023.

In a country where immigrants are the majority, anti-immigration politics are obsolete

Among the less commented-on results of the Toronto-St. Paul’s by-election was the performance of the People’s Party of Canada, the populist-nationalist party led by former Conservative cabinet minister Maxime Bernier. If you missed it, here it is: they got 234 votes, or 0.63 per cent of the total.

What a disappointment this must be for the PPC, after winning 2.67 per cent of the vote in the riding in the past general election. But it’s in keeping with the trend nationally. In the 2021 election the PPC took nearly 5 per cent of the vote. Nowadays it’s mired in the two-to-three-per-cent range.

Coyne bullshits for a living, but this nonsense is below even his typically low standards.

Canadian government gives generously to Canadian media … to foster independent journalism?

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Canadian government has proposed a new budget, including $42 million in additional funding for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC).

The increased subsides are purportedly to ensure that “Canadians across the country, including rural, remote, Indigenous, and minority language communities, have access to high-quality, independent journalism and entertainment.”

Because nothing fosters “independent journalism” like having the government pay your bills! Canadian taxpayers rejoice!
