Measles is set to become endemic in Canada by the end of the year per Canada’s chief public health officer. Yet all we’re seeing are these little scattered “outbreaks” in most provinces and across the U.S.

No epidemic here, no siree Bob. How alarmist of you.

NPR published a story 5 days ago about three high ranking Trump officials with clear ties to Hitler-admiring antisemites and it barely made a ripple. These are the kind of stories that used to end political careers. Now the subjects of the stories just hold up a middle finger and keep plowing ahead.

I think we can do better. Let's get this decline down to at least 65%.
In April, the number of Canadian-resident return trips by automobile from the United States totalled 1.2 million, a steep decline (-35.2%) from the same month in 2024 (Chart 4). April 2025 marked the fourth consecutive month of year-over-year declines. www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/daily-quo...

CBC isn’t dying—it’s thriving.
Record digital reach. Millions tuned in.
Defunders won’t mention that.
But Canadians still choose public media when it counts.
