"This decision now stands as binding precedent. It places real legal constraints on future governments and ensures that the Emergencies Act cannot be repurposed as a political convenience. It restores the act to what Parliament intended: a narrow, exceptional tool, not a blunt instrument against dissent. The government spent millions defending the indefensible. It lost completely. And in doing so, it handed Canadians one of the most important civil liberties rulings in a generation. That is worth celebrating.” @cvangeyn nationalpost.com/opinion/christ…

Heather Exner Pirot "We have an opportunity to be an energy superpower, but instead we're choosing to be an energy colony of the United States again." Poilievre "We're never going to cut our American allies off of our energy." Tasker "The Trump administration is warning Canada against using energy as leverage in the CUSMA Review. But with the president's tariffs pummeling Canadian steel, autos and lumber, that's exactly what the government is preparing to do." @ExnerPirot @JPTasker

I mean there's Bills C18, C11, C9, the QCJO, banning journalists from your own campaign kickoff, from the Liberal convention, and from getting answers from certain government ministries. Then there's the PPG controlling access to the hill. But yeah. Go press freedom.
Mark Carney@MarkJCarney

Journalism empowers us with the truth and protects our democracy. In a world where it’s increasingly under threat, Canada continues to support a free and open press — and we are stronger for it. #WorldPressFreedomDay

That time Carney made foreign interference ground zero in Parm Bain’s riding one of his first campaign stops, with the president of the Chinese Community Service Association (CCSA) which was linked to foreign interference that assisted Parm Bains in defeating Kenny Chiu. Chiu had introduced legislation to create a foreign agent registry to combat the PRC. The CCSA is a known United Front organization. Independent journalists from Western Standard however, were banned. Happy World Press Freedom Day.

Western Standard reporters get the police called on them but this is OK

Adam Zivo@AdamZivo·
The CBC published an article about the online harassment of female journalists – but, rather predictably, made the story exclusively about @atRachelGilmore. It's essentially written as a puff piece promoting her career. If they actually cared about this issue, they would've also interviewed @CarymaRules, who, unlike Gilmore, has actually been repeatedly assaulted for her work. They didn't do that, though, because it would've required them to acknowledge leftist political violence, something which the public broadcaster is hesitant to do because its "journalism" is, in practice, often just progressive activism.
