🎄 Santa cleared Canadian airspace. His reindeer too.
Meanwhile Pierre Poilievre still hasn’t obtained federal security clearance. That’s not a meme, it’s a fact CBC has reported.
This is why CBC matters. They report the uncomfortable truths others ignore.

From 1973 to 2022, Canada and Denmark were at war.
Over the course of the war, several soldiers on both sides were wounded....by hangovers. And it was all fought over a tiny island the size of a city block.

On December 6th 1989, unchecked misogyny and hatred caused 14 young women to be murdered at École Polytechnique. We say never again but I witness this same hatred building each day, on this very platform. Let's truly remember #December6 and make sure never again means just that.
