You can sympathize with the CBC’s outrage at being designated “government-funded” media on Twitter.
The CBC and its defenders (including the prime minister and several cabinet ministers) have shrieked and wailed and hyperventilated all week that CBC only gets $1.24 billion of its annual budget from the federal government. The other $651 million it earns all on its own.
Do you remember when you first passed the driver’s test? It took me three tries (largely because I was so nervous) but I finally passed. Although I didn’t have a car, the sense of freedom that the license gave me was like nothing I had ever felt before.
Asked this week about the need for Ottawa to create a foreign influence registry, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau invoked the internment of Japanese-Canadians in the Second World War and warned against the dangers of creating “registries of foreigners in Canada.”
The one thing has nothing to do with the other, as we will show. So the question becomes, why is Mr. Trudeau sowing confusion about a registry that exists in the United States and Australia, and which, somehow, has not led to the mass incarceration of citizens in those countries?
Race baiting is what Trudeau does.
U.S. officials are concerned that Beijing has potentially compromised American defense agencies via banned video surveillance equipment sold in disguise to government suppliers, according to the recently leaked Pentagon documents.
One of the leaked documents (written by the Defense Intelligence Agency, DIA) names the Chinese video surveillance camera producer Hikvision, which has been banned in the U.S. under the National Defense Authorization Act since 2019, purporting that the company frequently engages in “white-labeling”—a process in which their products are being rebranded by resellers in order to access markets that are restricted for the original brand.
The Ontario government’s new bill to give the province more control over school boards, in order to get back to focusing on reading, writing and arithmetic, is welcome news for parents who are concerned that schools are increasingly focused on indoctrination rather than education. The fact that the left-wing media and those involved in the education system are so perplexed about why reform is necessary highlights how out of touch they really are.
Taking over the boards is a good start but unless they are prepared to shut down the insane teacher’s colleges like OISE and bust the union there is no hope for public education.
Mehdi Hasan of MSNBC has a plagiarism problem. It appears that, as with the cases of John Oliver and James Corden, Britain is not sending its best. The pundit also seems to be as much of a chameleon as Kamala Harris and Kirsten Gillibrand, taking whatever position gets him ahead.
CBC’s Twitter drama: ‘Media needs to stand their ground’ to ‘What’s the fuss?’ – Canadians divided on news label controversy
Twitter CEO Elon Musk has once again changed Canadian public broadcaster CBC’s Twitter designation in an update Tuesday morning following a strong reaction from Canadian politicians and members of the public.
Looks like they spoke to liberal politicians, CBC employees and their families.

The orb remains in the “unresolved” category. Consensus says today’s hearing was a waste of time mostly.
Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador harshly criticized the U.S. government over an ongoing investigation into the Sinaloa Cartel. The president stated U.S. authorities not only sent informants into the criminal organization but also tapped the communications of military forces and their response to cartels.
Once upon a time, Chrystia Freeland attempted to relate to Canadians’ cost-of-living concerns with a personal anecdote — and it didn’t produce a fairy-tale ending.
“I personally, as a mother and wife, look carefully at my credit card bill once a month, and last Sunday I said to the kids, ‘You’re older now. You don’t watch Disney anymore. Let’s cut that Disney+ subscription,”‘ Freeland told Global News in an interview that aired on Nov. 6.
She went on to say: “I believe that I need to take exactly the same approach with the federal government’s finances, because that’s the money of Canadians.”

Lu Jianwang, whom the FBI arrested Monday for conspiring to act as an agent of the People’s Republic of China (PRC), is pictured with New York City Mayor Eric Adams and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, and even attended an apparent fundraiser for New York Democratic Rep. Grace Meng, according to multiple Chinese-language news reports and photographic evidence. Lu allegedly operated an overseas police station on behalf of the Chinese government.

This is supposed to kick off at 10:30 AM but may be delayed as there is a non-public committee meeting scheduled prior to the live event. Note – I do not know the YouTube hosts as this is the first time I have watched their channel but so far so good…
The case for reforming medicare is not so that we can get even with the doctors. Yet that – reform as vengeance – is essentially the basis of Pierre Poilievre’s campaign to defund the CBC. The CBC says things that conflict with Conservative Party dogma. Therefore, a Conservative government will take away its funding. It isn’t a lot more complicated than that.
Alec Baldwin has asked a judge to dismiss a case brought by Halyna Hutchins’s parents and sister, calling it “especially misguided”, while supporting a separate settlement to benefit the cinematographer’s ten-year-old-son.
Hutchins, 42, was fatally shot by Baldwin, 65, in an accident on a film set near Santa Fe, New Mexico, in October 2021.
