For a few seconds there I was worried that this was the new F**K TRUDEAU and God help me I am so done with that shit.
But FUND the CBC? HELL YES.
Fuck PP
As a neighbor down south, I read PP as planned parenthood. I know that’s not the case but I looked at ddg for Canada pp and that’s what I found. I’m really not trying to be dense but I would like clarification (because I’m a certified dumbass and don’t get nuance or hints at times)
Thanks and I’m trying to understand!
Pierre Poilievre, leader of the conservative party and our version of a Trump wannabe.
Also known as “Milhouse” or “Spineless Coward”
Thank you, I appreciate the response
Ok, you got me.
^GOOD L🍁CK TRUDEAU 🥸
Thought the same thing, actually elated after reading the bottom text because it wasn’t.
There was already someone on an overpass on Monday with a giant Fuck Mark Carney sign where I live.
I’m going to call that just a touch premature.
All the users coming here to complain about censoring swear words:
How did you get screenshots of my face as I opened this post???
That’s actually a pretty clever ad.
Definitely got my interest.
CBC are currently hiring 30 journalists across the country. I hope this means we wean ourselves off cheap US news and start investing in our own damn countries news, weather and culture. Given the US is repeatedly expressing their desire to violently annex us, investing in our own news seems like a no brainer. But also fuck the CPC who want to defund it and increase the flow of invader news media into Canada.
The CPC in all its forms have hated the CBC because they point out what the parties are doing wrong/scandals. The CPC does not like light on their actions, they feel targeted
The CPC are perfectly fine with foreign oligarch-owned, cheap US invader media and want more of it in Canada.
This is postered on a wall near me. I got really offended until I walked closer and saw the smaller text.
Good job whoever came up with it.
god I hate how neoliberals write stuff like this. The entire press release says nothing functional, except “the cbc is important” and then some easily fluffed assertions about what their plan ‘would do’. It’s really clearly written to avoid anything too committal.
The CBC came out already saying they want to see their funding doubled so they can provide even more journalism and provide CBC gems ith no ads without the paid option.
Sure, I’m all for increasing funding to the CBC. Just complaining about how neoliberals do everything. If the minister wants to increase funding to the CBC, say it in the press release. If she doesn’t, say it. This cagey say-nothing fluff is bullshit and people should find it offensive.
Here is a video of current Liberal heritage minister Pascale St-Onge saying she wants to change the funding formula and bring per capita funding up to the G7 average, up to $62/person, doubling it. Relevant part starts around 1 minute in.
It remains to be seen whether Mark Carney will be receptive to this.
It had been said before… Like a month ago. And how can they promise anything when parliament is prorouged? There’s a limit to what the federal government can and cannot do without parliament right now.
Not everything is a “NeOLIbeRaLs” problem.
Then don’t release a press release and a plan? Your comment doesn’t make sense in context.
It was what she wanted to SEE. Very clearly messaging towards people to not vote conservative aka the party that wants to completely dismantle it. Why are you getting so worked up over this lol
I’m not particularly worked up, I’m only responding because you’re continuing to bring it up. My whole problem is that what she wants people to see doesn’t actually tell anyone her plan. She has a plan, someone else posted her talking more openly about it. Her press release doesn’t actually say what it is, just reassures people without making any even vague commitments. I find that irritating. Honestly I think you should too. It’s one of the most transparent ways politicians try to avoid accountability.
NDP always for me.

the CBC 🇨🇦
Been watching a lot of news from multiple sources lately and the CBC coverage is SO GOOD compared to its US counterparts. Another amazing source I rely on every day is TVO. Steve Paiken is a god. The interviews and panels are like being in the company of adults after running a day care all day.
I mean … Comparing anything to US News outlets is kind of setting the bar really low, isn’t it?
They have outlets that are held out as more or less serious than others, but outside of PBS, it’s all a mess of news, opinion, delusion, and propaganda.
PS: Oh, and drug advertisements for the domestic audience
The CBC is the only large news organization in Canada that isn’t owned by foreign fascist placating billionaires and spreading anti-Canadian fascist propaganda. They can’t control it so they want to kill it. Save the CBC.
Oh yeah?? okay it’s not that big, but it spends wisely.
Yes.
Whoa…so all those pickups had flags that said FUND TRUDEAU?
It’s atrocious how US owned media has turned Canadians against a home-grown news organization. I’m not saying the CBC is perfect but they are important.
