Now is the time to be getting information from Canadian Owned and Operated media.

There will be disinformation campaigns unlike any other election.

There will be disinformation campaigns unlike any other election.

And the AI-generated disinformation will be wild.

~~Riiiight, commercial media in Canada being famously uncompromised and unbiased...~~

Edit: cited resource does not recommend Thompson media, CTV, Global, etc

I put a lot of work to ensure the list contained high quality, Canadian Owned and Operated media, as well as having acquisition resistance.

Your list was very helpful to me as I found some great news resources.

All you gotta do is watch what PP says. After all, he hasn't said anything true in years from what I can tell.

The sooner the better : the big contracts we need to sign with EU need to be signed by a PM with a clear mandate. It will give confidence to our partners.

Also, strategically within Canada, Carney will be subject to disinformation campaigns that will over time erode a bit his honeymoon relationship with Canadians. Use the peak anger around April second to his advantage and get elected before he can make mistakes : some decisions will be the right call but damaging to some Canadian because hardship is hardship.

Just yesterday i peaked to Apple news and the Canadian politics content where overwhelmingly critical with poorly constructed opinions. I quickly remembered why i focus on a very selected short list of Canadian owned medias.

Yeah that makes sense.

A novel concept in this day and age, apparently.

Do the conservatives even have a platform yet?

I mean aside from "not trudeau" and "axe the tax" which are now irrelevant.

They’ve been spamming some attack ads about some fake strawman Carney on YT pretty damn aggressively. And idk if I’d ever call whatever they’ve had these last couple years a platform.
