🚨 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!

A Florida weatherman telling his viewers he can no longer be confident in his forecasts due to cuts to atmospheric science is the kind of resistance content I’m here for.

Kudos, Sir.🌦️

This election, Canadians showed up—for facts.

CBC’s 2025 coverage hit record highs in viewership and trust. While Poilievre tried to silence it, voters chose to protect it.

Thank you for standing up for public media.

One of Mark Carney's first priorities should be depolarizing our politics and protecting us from foreign-funded disinformation and other deliberate attempts at division.

The best way to do that? Electoral reform. #cdnpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2025/04/30/o...

Bad take. Albertans are not so brittle, our opinions are not so homogenous, and we are much more committed to democracy than Preston seems to believe.

Picking up your ball and leaving because you "lose"? That's loser talk.

But we're not losers. Albertans will continue to support a strong Canada.
Opinion: Mark Carney poses a threat to national unity
If he remains prime minister after this election, there is a very real possibility that Western Canada will move to secede

Bombshell story here. Turns out the supporters of the coal mine in southern Alberta aren't grassroots at all. They're helped by an energy lobbyist.
