CBC/Radio-Canada is Canada’s public broadcaster — and it should stay that way. #Debate2025

By Evan Dyer, CBC(April 4/25): I'm a senior reporter covering the Conservative campaign this week. Weve seen unprecedented efforts at message control from the Poilievre campaign that have broken with tradition in a number of ways. The CPC is the only party to bar media from its campaign plane and buses. The Stephen Harper, Andrew Scheer and Erin O'Toole campaigns all allowed media to travel with the leader, and charged sometimes exorbitant amounts of money for the privilege. The other parties do the same, and also charge. Poilievre takes fewer questions than other leaders, a maximum of four per event, and insists on choosing which reporters are allowed to ask. After a week following the campaign, neither I nor my CBC colleague Tom Parry have been permitted to ask any questions. Sometimes, CPC staffers try to get reporters to say what they plan to ask - a question a reporter is not supposed to answer. However, we have seen local media pressured into answering. Obviously, if a reporter declines, that could factor into the decision of who gets to ask questions at all. The decision on who asks questions is always last-minute. A CPC staffer holds the microphone, ready to pull it away. No follow-up questions are permitted. On occasion, CPC staffers have gotten physical with journalists, such as on the public wharf at Petty Harbour, N.L., where there was pushing and shoving. Today, in Trois-Rivières, we asked to be allotted a question. Party staffers said yes, so long as it was asked by my colleague Tom Parry. We responded that I would prefer to ask it. At that point the party took away our question and gave it to another outlet. The difficulty of trying to keep up with a campaign that has its own chartered aircraft is a logistical problem that can be mitigated to some extent. But the extreme message control makes it all but impossible to bring the same level of accountability to the Poilievre campaign that other campaigns are subject to. It also protects the campaign…

Conservative leader Pierre #Poilievre is a chickenshit.

Trudeau: I want to speak first directly to the American people… your government has chosen to do this to you. Your government has chosen to put American jobs at risk. They have chosen to raise costs for American consumers on everyday essential items…

Can someone cancel Scott Jennings on CNN.. i don't watch many American news channels, but the smirk on his face while he talks about the Velveeta fascist makes me cringe.

February 17th is Presidents Day, in the USA, or as we Canadians now call it, "International Day of the Racist, Pathologically Lying, Malignant Narcissist Tainted Twat that wants to Annex Canada, Day."
We celebrate it by drinking beer & eating chili & pickled eggs, & sending farts in a jar to DC.

It's just a Saturday night elevator tour.

White letters on blue background starts with“it’s remarkable to find ourselves at odds with our best friend and neighbour.” The letter outlines measures the province of Nova Scotia will take in light of the tariffs. They include limiting access to provincial procurement for American businesses, doubling Cobequid Pass toll costs for commercial vehicles from the US, and directing the NSLC to remove all American alcohol by February 4.
