In 2019, Parliament removed the crime of spreading false news from the Canadian Criminal Code, a provision that existed in the 1954 version. This raises questions about the trustworthiness of the government, especially when it comes to handling public health and media accountability. The government has been criticized for its financial practices, restricting access to effective treatments, and promoting vaccines without thorough investigations into their safety. Meanwhile, mainstream media outlets like CBC and CTV are perceived to operate without consequences for misinformation. This situation challenges the belief that elected representatives are looking out for the public's best interests.

The cost of maintaining Trudeau's proposed 100,000 new hires is significant. As of 2023, Canada’s federal public service employs nearly 360,000 individuals. Over the next 20 years, sustaining this workforce will cost taxpayers close to $1 trillion. This immense figure emphasizes the unsustainable nature of the federal bureaucracy and highlights the pressing need for reform.

We've stopped the $8,000,000 in taxpayer subsidies for Politico subscriptions. The team is working to cancel the payments immediately. Large organizations inevitably miss things. Claims of widespread waste and abuse haven't been substantiated with evidence. We haven't seen proof of the alleged misuse of funds.

Trump has frozen millions in USAID funds for foreign media, causing outrage among liberals. Reports reveal that USAID has been funding outlets like Politico and the New York Times, raising concerns about the U.S. government influencing global journalism. Trump’s recent hold on USAID has cut $268 million from media in over 30 countries, affecting 6,200 journalists and 707 news outlets. This situation parallels past revelations about social media collusion with the government to shape public opinion. Critics argue that while they highlight U.S. involvement in foreign affairs, the real issue is that many media outlets are funded by the U.S., including the BBC, which is the second-largest recipient of U.S. funding after the UK government.

Canada is not living up to expectations due to high inflation and dissatisfaction with the government. Moving to Canada for a better life has backfired for some, leading to a call for people to stay in their home countries. The media is seen as controlled and not accurately portraying the issues faced in the country. There are concerns about Canada becoming like North Korea under current leadership.

Canadians face high costs for basics like food and housing, yet politicians give themselves raises annually despite not necessarily earning it. The focus on carbon tax debates in the House of Commons seems misplaced when politicians are increasing their own salaries. The opposition leader, Pierre Poliev, and MPs receive hefty salaries and benefits funded by taxpayers. This self-serving behavior is criticized as selfish and unnecessary. Translation (if needed): Despite the high cost of living for Canadians, politicians continue to give themselves raises, which is seen as selfish and unjustified.

Employers incur significant costs, including matching CPP and EI contributions totaling $539 million annually. Operational expenses, such as office space and equipment, add another $720 million per year. Additionally, each employee is eligible for lifetime pension benefits averaging $32,800 after 20 years, which, when indexed for inflation, can exceed $61 billion over 15 years of retirement. Altogether, these expenses result in a taxpayer burden exceeding $250 billion over 20 years.

Major ad agencies, like Publicis, receive billions in federal contracts annually, impacting media bias. Taxpayers fund this, supporting government-favored outlets. Calls for cutting these contracts, similar to divesting from ESG investments, until agencies stop biased practices.

Political Polling Liaison Strategies has been releasing polls daily for the past week after never appearing on the 338Canada website before 03/12/2025. This began right after Mark Carney won the Liberal leadership race. Liaison Strategies, a Toronto-based firm, has received over $7 million in government grants from Canadian Heritage since 2020. The firm's recent surge in polling data on 338Canada coincides with the Liberals gaining a slight lead. The sudden influx of polls could be a strategy to inflate Liberal support and create the illusion of momentum. This could backfire by motivating Conservative voters, who may believe their party could lose if they don't turn out. The situation is described as not normal, and viewers are encouraged to stay skeptical and vote.

Justin Trudeau has significantly increased Canada's federal workforce to create an illusion of job growth amid economic challenges. This public sector hiring, which has added about 100,000 federal employees since he took office, allows the government to showcase employment gains. However, it imposes a substantial long-term financial burden on taxpayers, costing approximately $8.2 billion annually at an average salary of $82,000 per employee. This approach raises concerns about the sustainability of such growth and its impact on the economy.

Canada's tax system heavily burdens the average worker, with $22,376 taken annually from a $55,000 income through various taxes, including income tax, employment insurance, and property taxes. This leaves only $32,624, which is further diminished by a 13% sales tax, reducing purchasing power to $28,380. Essentially, workers spend half the year working for the government. In return, they face a government that has restricted freedoms, imposed health mandates, and overseen a failing healthcare system, rising crime rates, and homelessness. There are concerns about legislation targeting free speech and plans to eliminate private car ownership by 2030. The current governance is seen as a threat to the freedoms fought for by previous generations.

The professionalization of journalism is crucial for ensuring trustworthy information. Currently, anyone can claim to be a journalist in Canada, posing a significant problem. Unlike other professions, journalists have no mandatory regulations. Should partisan media like Rebel News or Epoch Times be treated as activists rather than journalists? With 46 professional orders in Quebec, why not establish one for journalists given their impact on society? Upholding a code of ethics and verifying journalists' backgrounds is essential to combat fake news and protect the public's right to accurate information.

Speaker 0 accuses the Liberal government of attempting to censor Canadians online through bills like C-11, C-18, and C-63. They claim these bills give the Liberals control over online algorithms, squeeze out independent media, and criminalize thought. The speaker alleges that cabinet ministers are competing to oversee the latest online censorship law. Speaker 1 responds by stating that Google agreed to pay $100 million to support Canadian journalism. They accuse the Conservative Party of opposing this initiative, which they claim would prevent deaths and hinder the media from receiving funding for local content and journalists. The speaker deems this opposition unthinkable and immoral.

The journalism industry is in a free fall, with numerous layoffs and closures. The Los Angeles Times recently laid off 115 employees, including their entire DC bureau, sports teams, and tech and business section. This is just one example of the ongoing layoffs in the media industry, with tens of thousands of journalists losing their jobs in the past year. Digital media sites and local news have been hit hard, while even major magazines like GQ and Vogue are facing impending layoffs. Even if young journalists manage to find a job, salaries are stagnant and low. It's important to recognize the crucial role journalists play in our world.

Some professionals, like family doctors, may be negatively impacted by the new capital gains tax inclusion if they rely on corporate investments for retirement. Efforts are being made to recognize foreign credentials to address healthcare labor shortages. However, existing doctors who heavily rely on capital gains for retirement may feel the new tax changes are punitive. The goal is to bridge the medical coverage gap and create a fair Canada for all generations.

We're allocating half a billion dollars annually, totaling $14.5 billion over time, to organizations like the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, NPR, and NPS, essentially funding opinion journalism with taxpayer money. NPR, for instance, recently acquired a $200 million office space and pays its hosts and chief diversity officer exorbitant salaries using taxpayer funds. Despite this financial support, their viewership is declining. Therefore, I've introduced legislation to defund these entities. With a staggering $36 trillion national debt, it's unacceptable for taxpayers to fund what I consider to be biased journalism, regardless of its political leaning. These entities have the right to exist, but not with taxpayer money.

In my Ontario riding, the carbon rebate means $11.24 back, which can make a significant difference. The majority of households will be negatively impacted by the carbon tax. The Canada carbon rebate benefits 8 out of 10 families, particularly those who need it most, and supports the economy during tough times. Since 2019, 8 out of 10 low to middle-income Canadian families have received more money back than they paid.

The speaker discusses Canada becoming interesting in January and February due to protesters in Ottawa. The job of reporters, according to the speaker, is to go out and ask protesters why they are on the streets, why they are there with their kids, and why there is a bouncy castle in the middle of Ottawa, to discover the story. The speaker claims the Government did not want that and that the Prime Minister decided in advance that the protesters were all the modern excommunications—Nazis, white supremacists, anti-Semites, probably homophobes, misogynists, probably transphobes, etc.—and then he brings in the Emergency Powers Act. The speaker asks what the mainstream media would do at such a time, and asserts they would question it, but claims the Canadian mainstream media did not and instead acted as an Amen Chorus of the government. Several examples are provided. A CBC host described the Freedom Convoy as a feral mob. A Toronto Star columnist said, “sorry for the language, it's a homegrown hate farm that was then jet fueled by an American right funded rat fucking operation.” The speaker notes that CBC claimed two indigenous women who were scared to go outside in Ottawa because of racist violence did not bother to mention that indigenous drummers had led the truckers in an 0 Canada rendition. The National Observer allegedly stated that many black and indigenous freedom convoy supporters were, in fact, duped by the truckers. A Globe and Mail reporter claimed, “My 13 year old son told me to tell protesters I'm not a Jew” out of fear of antisemitic violence, without mentioning that one of the convoy leaders was Jewish. The speaker argues this demonstrably rancid and corrupt behavior is rooted in a system where in Canada, the media is funded by the government. It is stated that in 2018, election year, there was a coincidence with the government funding; the Canadian media allegedly received $595,000,000 over five years, and the Toronto Star estimated it was going to be getting $3,000,000 from the Government in the first half of the year. The government is described as able to tell banks to shut down people’s bank accounts, and able to tell the media what to do, with the media then doing the bidding of the government camp. The speaker concludes that this is not a free society’s media.

In 2019, the Canadian government removed the crime of spreading false news from the Criminal Code. This raises concerns about trusting a government that takes our money, restricts effective treatments, and fails to investigate the safety of promoted vaccines. Additionally, the parliament we elect allows mainstream media to freely lie without consequences.

It turns out the federal government might be more corrupt than we thought. Politico, known for dismissing the Hunter Biden laptop story, apparently had a "technical error" that prevented paychecks from going out. Some joked it was due to Trump freezing USAID funding. But, digging deeper, it seems Politico received millions from USAID and the government, making it a taxpayer-funded propaganda outlet. Roughly $30 million was traced to Politico, with estimates suggesting 90% of political subscriptions are fake or taxpayer-funded. The investigation uncovered $473 million from USAID to over 4,000 left-wing media outlets, including the New York Times and BBC. This money also funded boycotts against non-left media, like Elon Musk's X. The concern is what the government gets for these millions, election interference, state-funded propaganda, and a censorship industrial complex. This allows the left to censor alternative voices as misinformation, covering everything from COVID to war in Ukraine, and the radical left's corruption.

The Liberal NDP Coalition government held an emergency meeting with the Auditor General of Canada to discuss the $54 million ArriveCAN app scandal. The RCMP is now investigating potential criminality related to the app's contracts. However, the government shut down the Auditor General's testimony after just 30 minutes of a scheduled 2-hour meeting. Serious allegations of fraudulent contract practices have been made, and there is concern about how an app could cost taxpayers such a large amount. The opposition party vows to expose the corruption and hold those responsible accountable. They believe the NDP liberal government is not worth the cost.

The Biden administration reportedly paid POLITICO $26 million over four years, including $8 million last year. The government claims this was for subscriptions to Politico Pro, which offers exclusive reporting about the federal government. Subscriptions cost between $10,000 to $75,000 a year. Politico Pro is allegedly not for government employees but for lobbyists seeking contact information for regulators. The speaker questions why government officials would need to pay for inside information about their own departments. The speaker claims the payments were a bailout and a payoff.

In 2019, Bill C39 removed the crime of spreading false news from the Canadian Criminal Code. This change was discovered when comparing the 1954 and 2020 versions of the code. It raises questions about trusting the government, which is accused of stealing money, restricting effective treatments, and not properly investigating promoted vaccines. The parliament, elected to protect citizens, has granted mainstream media outlets like CDC and CTV the freedom to lie without consequences.

After 8 years, the NDP Liberal government is facing corruption allegations regarding the Green Slush fund. The chair of the fund resigned after funneling over $200,000 of taxpayers' money into her own company. An independent report suggests that this is just the tip of the iceberg. The Minister for Innovation claims that they have commissioned an independent investigation and frozen the fund. The CEO and chair have both resigned. The Minister defends the government's actions and promises to get to the bottom of the issue while continuing to support companies and invest in green technologies.

Media outlets receiving significant funding from the government raises concerns about their objectivity. Millions of dollars flowed to organizations like Politico and the BBC, echoing past scandals like payola in the music industry. The USAID's spending on journals and publications, while sometimes justifiable, saw a dramatic increase under the Biden administration, reaching $8 million annually for Politico, compared to $1.3 million under Trump. This represents a significant portion of Politico's revenue. Similar concerning funding patterns emerged with the BBC and Thomson Reuters. While the New York Times received comparatively less, the increase in funding warrants scrutiny. This situation requires investigation to ensure transparency and maintain public trust in the media's independence. The information is still developing, but citizen journalists are already using publicly available data to shed light on the issue.
