Taxpayer-subsidized media doesn't know the difference between a man and a woman. Please define "pregnant people," @CTVNews.
@CTVNews Pregnant “people,” not women. I knew this was a @CdnPressNews story just from reading the headline. This kind of hyper woke nonsense is actually in their style book. A good example of why PostMedia made the right call to drop its CP subscription.
Troubling reports this morning in Quebec, where stolen food is reportedly being sold in parking lots near grocery stores. This is unreal.
The CBC lured notable Canadians under false pretences to smear Sir John A. MacDonald and mock interviewees. Canadians deserve answers for this unethical and inappropriate behaviour. I’ve written to the CEO of CBC asking for a full explanation regarding their media sting. We will continue to hold the Liberal Government and the CBC to account.
I've received a lot of hell of late for calling myself a "Devil's Advocate," mostly by people who don't like the devil in principle. And, hey, fair. But every day in this country -- this weird CBC Comedy scandal being just the latest example -- I'm reminded why every institution needs just one Problematic Asshole in the ranks. The civet in the perfume. Just one person to break groupthink and be willing to ask: "Yeah, but..." Friction and challenge are crucial to any creative process. Had that person been involved at any stage in this instance, not only would it have prevented this incredible mess of optics but, also, gasp the CBC probably could have produced a much better, funnier, show.
I found out recently that I was deceived by social activists in an elaborate scheme dating back to January. A production group with what I now know has a fake name and fake identities gave me a friendly interview about my book A Day with Sir John A, and about Sir John A Macdonald, back in Feb. They connected me with a fake company called Heritage Figures Canada with a fake website and "hired" me to perform consulting work for them. We had what I now know were fake meetings, fake documents, fake commercial shoot, fake prototype of a Sir John A collectible. Then in a second filmed interview last week, they turned on me, and it was revealed to have all been a setup in order to demonize Sir John A and smear me. It turns out this is a taxpayer-funded CBC and APTN project. There is so much more, I will make a video. They also deceived @FrancesWiddows1
