More recently, I had the chance, in a committee hearing, to raise the issue of the CBC’s commitment to X. Here’s what CBC’s top executives told me about why the CBC isn’t on Bluesky or Mastodon. youtu.be/lJUeQZlvD-E?... #cdnpoli
CBC stays on X to reach audiences despite hate speech concerns - but isn't on Bluesky or Mastodon.

In case you've seen the story about “grok now only generates images for paid users”, it's untrue. Apparently everyone just reported it because… it was what grok told them 🤦🏼

No, Grok hasn’t paywalled its deepfake image feature
X’s sexual deepfake machine is still running, despite Grok saying otherwise.

Bill 9 gets Royal Assent but if the Government thinks the fight is over, they continue to underestimate us. By invoking the notwithstanding clause, the Government is attempting to shield these reprehensible laws from being struck down for unjustifiably violating Charter rights. It will not work.
