Keeping the Bill C-11 Implementation Secret, Regulating User Content, and Citing Non-Existent Benefits
The Online Streaming Act (Bill C-11) was the subject of hours of debate yesterday in the House of Commons as the government presses to get the bill out of second reading and onto committee for hearings and further study. Setting aside the claims of “censorship” on one side and “you don’t care about creators” on the other, there were some notable takeaways from the debate, including the government digging in on keeping the policy direction to the CRTC secret, acknowledging (perhaps inadvertently) that the bill does regulate user generated content, and several comments from MPs that promise outcomes that are simply not part of the bill.
Police Department Restricts Officer Recruitment To Female And ‘Racialized’ Candidates
OPS directed TND to a news release put out Monday indicating the department was looking for 80 new officers, and that its “outreach strategies will be designed to encourage increased applications for female, Indigenous, and racialized candidates.”
No End In Sight For Government Spending Spree Across Canada
This budget season, most Canadian governments preached the importance of fiscal responsibility while failing to introduce an effective plan to achieve their own objectives. Many provinces and the federal government continued to borrow and increase spending without reasonably working towards a balanced budget, despite every jurisdiction experiencing an unexpected influx of revenue.
Biden Administration Shipping “Pallets” Of Baby Formula To Border Amid Nationwide Shortage
GOP Rep. Kat Cammick says the Biden administration has been shipping “pallets” of baby formula to illegal migrants in U.S. holding facilities, amid a nationwide shortage that has sent mothers across the country in search of the newborn foods.
“Biden is sending pallets of baby formula to the border,” the Florida lawmaker said Wednesday in one of two online postings. “Meanwhile, store shelves across America are empty and moms are being told they don’t know when more is coming in.”
Nina Jankowicz Said She Wants to Be Able to Use Her Power to Edit Your Tweets
Jancowikz starts off by telling her fellows in a Zoom call she’s in that she’s verified and while others are verified they shouldn’t be, not because they’re not real people, but effectively because they have different opinions than her and are not “trustworthy.”
She then expresses the idea that verified people like herself should be able to “edit Twitter” in the same way people can edit Wikipedia, and be able to “add context to certain tweets.” She, of course, gives an example that involves Trump.
“If President Trump were still on Twitter and tweeted a claim about voter fraud, someone could add context from one of the 60 lawsuits that went through the court or something that an election official in one of the states said,” said Jankowicz. “Perhaps your own secretary of state and his news conferences. Something like that.”
‘Supply Chain Disruptions’ Are Not An Accident, They’re The Logical Result Of Stupid Lockdowns
These “supply chain disruptions,” as everyone is painfully aware, are doing everything from starving babies to shooting up the price of everything, as Wednesday’s 8.3 percent annual inflation number affirmed again. They are also not random, and they’re not a virus’s fault. They’re the direct and foreseeable consequence of ill-advised global lockdowns that nearly all of our nation’s political leaders refused to take into account when they and corporate media colluded to gaslight the world into accepting them.
