Interested in knowing more about the roller coaster that is Canadian journalism? I spoke to Tyler Olsen of the @fvcurrent.bsky.social and a couple of UFV’s communications professors to get the scoop. Read more here: ufvcascade.ca/a-journey-th...

Pretty gross how so much of our media is tip toeing around the obvious. Call it what it is - to fail to do so is embarrassing and dangerous. Not open for discussion.

A bunch of losers went out and threw Nazi salutes in Alberta, Canada yesterday while holding racist signs.

Might be time for the media to stop calling them “hand gestures” and start reporting on this big fucking problem for what it is!
Man dressed in all black holding a sign that reads “deport them all” while doing a Nazi salute on the side of the road Three men join the first on the side of the road, all in black, each holding a sign that together read “deport them all.” They’re all throwing up Nazi salutes The three men are now? In the same position on the side of the road, holding three separate items. The first has a sign that reads “deport them all,” the second has a red ensign flag (which has been adopted in canada by white supremacists as a symbol for a white canada), and the third is holding a glad with a Celtic cross (another adopted hate symbol used by white supremacists) One man is seen throwing a Nazi salute at the side of the road while holding a sign that reads “import third world become third world”
