@pascalestonge.bsky.social Is this the way that a newly funded CBC is going to treat its customers?

Listened to the show today Ian on you-tube wondering why the comment section was turned off since I thought the purpose of the show was to get feedback on how Canadians felt? Glad you re-framed the question I think that helped. tRump must love all the attention he’s getting like the 2yr old he is!

Kevin O'Leary to @ianhanomansing.bsky.social on Cross Country Checkup, rough quote: "The Canadian dollar has dropped 40% against the US dollar under Trudeau."
Fact check: the CAD has dropped 34% from the 2011 peak, but just 4% of that drop happened under Trudeau. The big drop happened under Harper.

We ALL knew this was going to happen.
We called @ianhanomansing.bsky.social and @brodiefenlon.bsky.social out about it, and contacted the CBC directly.
And yet, here we are.
Cross Canada Checkup is laundering fascism and promoting the illegal invasion of Canada by the USA.

Oof. NPR and CBC are completely missing the moment
They are situating it as if Trump/Musk would open this question up to a democratic process
Why would Canada get a referendum?
They are violating the law constantly

Fucking hell. Ian Hanomansing just suggested people should "do fact checking online" after the program.
This is journalistic malpractice. I can't.
The only thing this broadcast has illuminated, information-wise, is Hanomansing's narcissism.

I am beyond disappointed in the @CBC for airing their chosen topic on Cross Country Check-Up this afternoon. They are failing Canada. They are letting the enemy in and normalizing the attack. It's shameful and frightening. Heads should roll. #BothSides #CBC @ianhanomansing.bsky.social

Stop being neutral and treat the words as what they are: a threat that should be fought with every fibre Canadians have in their bodies! Now, it’s not a time for pleasantries and neutrality; it’s a time to fight and defend Canada!
Lots of thoughtful social media criticism of our question for Sunday's Checkup and we listened. The new question: what do you think of Trump's comments about Canada becoming the 51st state? The show's being simulcast on more than 100 NPR stations. It's a chance to make your voice heard.

🍁Canada🍁 On Pierre Poilievre, it is worth reminding everyone that his endorsers are rightwing Alex Jones, Elon Musk, Conrad Black, Jordan Peterson, Ben Shapiro + Joe Rogan. All of these individuals supported tRump and are politically aligned with Pierre Poilievre’s ideology. #NeverVoteConservative

WHY are you co-hosting a show with an American to explore whether Canada should be the 51st state.
WHY is that even a question!!! The answer is #No #Never

CBC trying to explain how a "conversation" about whether Canada has a right to exist as a nation will be good because they have asked an American DJ to co-host.
Like asking Ukraine to join a "conversation" with Russia about their borders.
But don't worry it will be done with "care."

There have been a few times when Checkup has been hammered on social media for a program we haven't done yet. I'm in a show meeting right now. The gap between what's being posted and what we're actually planning is enormous. Our regular listeners should expect the same care we use for every show.
