🚨 Rebel News lost its court battle for official journalism status.
The judge found only 10 of 423 posts met the standard for real news.
The CRA ruled most were opinion, rewrites, or activist fundraising—not journalism.
The ruling makes one thing clear: propaganda isn’t journalism. That's a win!

Absolutely! I've been saying this for years, and I believe older women in particular like me, have developed a keen sense for spotting these kinds of tactics b/c we have seen it time and time again. We can now see right through them, which is exactly why so many women chose not to vote for him.

Be in the know

46% of 16 to 21 year olds say they would rather a world without internet, and 70% say they feel worse about themselves after using social media.
It’s long past time governments stepped in to address the consequences of leaving the internet to the private sector.

Gee what does it say about PP that he is going to try and get re-elected in the MOST conservative riding there is in all of Canada? over 80% of voters were blue there - he does not like competition, questions or playing fair. #cdnpoli #truthmatters #getoveritpierre

And he’s leaving absolutely nothing to chance: “Even by the standards of rural Alberta, Battle River—Crowfoot is a strongly conservative riding.” ~Wikipedia
