“In my view it is no exaggeration to say that at this juncture, information manipulation (whether foreign or not) poses the single biggest risk to our democracy. It is an existential threat.”

canadiandimension.comHere’s one easy trick to combat foreign political interference in our mediaPostmedia has largely replaced local news coverage with paid content, including a long-running campaign for the Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers, and under new CEO Andrew Macleod ordered its editors to hew even harder to the right politically. We are thus in effect paying foreign-owned media to feed us propaganda, an irony perhaps not lost on Justice Hogue.

the worst traitors of all may actually be in our own news media. “While allegations of interference involving elected officials have dominated public and media discourse, the reality is that misinformation and disinformation pose an even greater threat to democracy,” wrote Justice Marie-Josée Hogue in her long-awaited report on the subject that was released this past week in no fewer than seven volumes. “Some spread disinformation about candidates and elected officials who express views that diverge from their own interests. Their goal is to try and prevent these candidates from getting elected, and to affect policy choices and positions.”

Peterson [...] received funding from Russian broadcaster RT. “Enough idiot green moralizing,” Peterson’s rant continued. “Enough carbon tax. Enough bloody net zero. And how about this? Enough multiculturalism and destruction of the Canadian identity.”

some MPs had been “semi-witting or witting” dupes of foreign powers attempting to interfere in Canadian politics. While heavily redacted, the NSICOP report pointed a finger directly at foreign-funded Canadian news media

Trudeau initiated what is best described as a war-effort-scale economic transformation that I am completely on board with. Informed by my IT job: Never be left at the mercy of a single point of failure.

I can't imagine anybody but Carney overseeing this project. Poilievre would undo it and sell us out, the NDP lack the experience and connections to be successful. So Liberals it is, just for the hump.

But let's dump the banker and focus on what's important in four years, m'kay?

Ah Carney, Carney, Carney. The man and the direction he'll take with the Liberal party.

On one hand he appears to be the very embodiment of neoliberalism itself, something a lot of us progressives have railed against since, well, forever.

On the other hand he appears to be exactly what we need at this particular moment in time, precisely because he's the very embodiment of neoliberalism.
