The U.S. has covertly destabilized nations. With Canada, it’s being done in public says LPC propaganda outfit

Former senior Canadian intelligence officials say Canada needs to be on the lookout for campaigns aimed at destabilizing the country amid U.S. President Donald Trump’s escalating 51st state threats.

And they told CBC News that the most potent weapon wielded by the Trump administration to advance the cause of annexation would likely not be the intelligence agencies directed by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard.

“I would regard Mr. Musk as a problem,” said Ward Elcock, who headed CSIS for a decade including during the 9/11 attacks and also served as national security adviser. “I think that’s on a number of fronts.”

Lauren Southern, a well-known personality in conservative circles, testified Thursday before the House of Commons public safety and national security committee in the wake of a U.S. indictment linking Tenet Media to the foreign influence operation.

“I’m not being influenced by anyone,” Southern told MPs during a testy hour of testimony.

Social Media Companies Should be Penalized for ‘Questionable’ Information, House Report Says

Parliament should penalize companies like Google and Facebook if they fail to identify and control “undesirable or questionable” content on the internet, according to a House of Commons heritage committee report.

The November 2024 report included a recommendation that social media platforms put in place mechanisms to detect content that may be the product of disinformation or foreign interference. The report said the platforms should be required to “promptly identify such content and report it to users” and that a failure to do so “should result in penalties,” as first reported by Blacklock’s Reporter.

Canadian linked to Russian influence campaign refuses to answer MPs’ questions

The House of Commons is being asked to consider whether Lauren Chen — a Canadian influencer accused of aiding a Russian propaganda campaign — should be found in contempt of Parliament after she refused to answer MPs’ questions during a parliamentary committee hearing Tuesday.

Chen was summoned to appear before the House of Commons public safety and national security committee in the wake of explosive allegations in the U.S. linking her and her husband to a foreign influence operation.

In September, the U.S. Justice Department unsealed an indictment against two Russian nationals, accusing them of setting up a conservative media outlet as a front for pro-Kremlin propaganda.

CHR – How Hunter Biden Laptop Got The CBS News Treatment

CHR – It’s the question I get asked the most, “What happened in October 2020?”

With new allegations this week about suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story in the last Presidential election, I can’t help but reflect on my own experience at CBS News — what I believe was a missed opportunity to rebut false claims it was Russian disinformation.

Inside the world of Martin Sellner, millennial influencer of Europe’s far right

The Post spent time with Sellner to understand his secretive movement and how his rhetoric found its way into the Trump campaign and Austria’s election on Sunday.

SCHNELLRODA, Germany — In a food hall adorned with pastoral scenes of rural German life, Martin Sellner, self-proclaimed champion of mass migrant deportations, fielded question from a rapt audience. An ash-blond young mother raised her hand. She remarked on the importance of improving Germanic gene pools, then asked whether a people of such “progress and innovation” should honestly see themselves as run-of-the-mill humans.

“Good question,” Sellner said, responding with an answer that touched on biology, population trends and extraterrestrial invasions.

When asked directly, Sellner, 35, a far-right Austrian provocateur, will say he is no racist — but argues that each race would be happier in its own geographic corner. His Generation Identity movement, he says, adheres to nonviolent activism to protect ethno-European culture, citing Mohandas K. Gandhi and the Arab Spring as inspiration.


Trump’s deportation “rhetoric” is due more to Eisenhower than Sellner but that sort of thing just doesn’t sell smear jobs.

The Washington Post’s liars are propagating a disinformation campaign created by Germany’s government to smear the AfD with their “plan” to deport millions of non-native Germans.

“Following revelations in January that Sellner discussed remigration during a secret meeting with members of Germany’s AfD, tens of thousands of protesters took to the streets of German cities for days, suggesting both the extent of his enduring toxicity and the measure of his power.”

Thankfully Euroconservative exposed this lie – Correctiv Director Met With Chancellor Scholz Days Before Publishing AfD Disinfo Piece

The managing director of the disinformation-peddling media outlet Correctiv met with German Chancellor Olaf Scholz days before the ‘secret’ Potsdam meeting, and the publication’s subsequent, grossly deceptive reporting on the gathering. 

The outlet’s  ‘investigative reporting’ from the meeting—in which it spread brazen lies about a non-existent Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) plan to deport millions of German citizens with migration backgrounds—propelled a wave of anti-AfD demonstrations across Germany and prompted calls for the traffic light coalition to ban the increasingly popular insurgent party.

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.

The website Reliable Recent News has been identified by officials in Europe and the U.S. as a repository for pro-Kremlin articles that are distributed through a network of affiliated sites disguised to appear as legitimate news outlets.

Expanding WHO’s Role: Canadian Stakeholders Eye “Misinformation” Control

Canada wants to expand the scope of the World Health Organization, WHO’s global pandemic agreement (treaty) by adding more censorship measures.

The initiative is to add social media “misinformation” (and censorship thereof) to the discussion of the draft treaty. In anticipation of the “next pandemic,” Canada also wants more attention to be paid to what it considers diversity, equity, and inclusion.

The treaty’s purpose is to give WHO an active role in directing how the United Nation’s 193 member countries deal with pandemics or other health crises. However, the negotiators failed to agree on the text of the document by the May deadline this year.
