Poilievre is from Calgary. But this riding is a gigantic expanse of rural areas that span south east of Calgary to east of Edmonton.

The NYT refers to voters of Die Linke, a socialist party with roots in Marxism-Leninism, as “liberal.”

Israel reportedly dropping leaflets telling Gazans: “Trump’s mandatory plan … will impose forced displacement upon you whether you accept it or not” (trans. via @dropsitenews.com)

Our reporting was cited in Parliament multiple times and played a role in the pressure that ultimately led to a pause on new arms export permits to Israel.

We published an unprecedented exposé of HonestReporting Canada’s tactics and supporters.
