CBC gets about $1.5 billion in our tax money + constantly breaks its own Journalistic Code of Conduct by not airing balanced reports. Shameful.

[cbcwatcher @cbcwatcher]

CBC’s coverage of the Canadian wildfire smoke choking US cities this week has been a textbook case of omission

The network ran multiple interviews with climate activists framing the fires as unquestionable proof of climate change. Yet in the only segment even touching forest management — this piece highlighting complaints from Michigan Republican lawmakers — CBC quickly pivots to Carney government talking points about “global cooperation” and “climate change being a global problem,” while giving almost no airtime to practical forestry solutions

Where is the discussion of:
* Proactive clearing of pine beetle-killed timber?
* Scaled-up controlled burns (including Indigenous-led practices)?
* Regular removal of deadwood and underbrush?

Where is the historical context on Canada’s steady decline in active forestry labour and management intensity since the late 1980s? Those are measurable policy and resource choices, not weather

An average Canadian cannot let their roof rot for years, then blame “climate change” when it collapses in a storm. Yet when it comes to our publicly managed forests, CBC treats neglect of basic maintenance as off-limits for debate. Instead, the network allows activist guests to declare the cause “unquestionably climate change” with zero pushback or counter-analysis.

Forest management is not a partisan issue — it is land stewardship

Canadians cannot lecture Americans about transboundary pollution while neglecting basic land stewardship. In the 1970s and 1980s, Canadian politicians repeatedly scolded the US over acid rain drifting from Midwest coal plants, demanding action and treaties because it was damaging Canadian lakes and forests. They didn’t simply blame “global climate patterns” and move on — they insisted on accountability for preventable emissions and management failures on the American side and Americans followed through

Responsible coverage would examine both long-term climate trends ANDthe on-the-ground failures in prevention and maintenance. CBC has chosen the former while burying the latter. That’s not journalism; it’s advocacy. Canadians and our American neighbours deserve better

This all merits an Ombudman complaint @brodiefenlon @CBCOmbud

Chili Con Carney conned Canadians into believing he was the Trump whisperer. Carney failed at his core campaign promise and pretty much everything else. Life is more expensive. Investment is fleeing Canada and wasteful Liberal spending tops that of Justin Trudeau’s regime.

[KerryDiotte @KerryDiotte]

@MichelleRempel is absolutely right about this! Liberals broke our immigration system. You agree?

[Michelle Rempel Garner @MichelleRempel]

Should people who are in Canada illegally get social welfare benefits?

Of course not.

But that's not what's happening.

[KerryDiotte @KerryDiotte]

@MPRandyHoback Excellent tour. Glad our office could arrange and take part.

[KerryDiotte @KerryDiotte]

Former Net Zero crusader Carney has called off the CLIMATE CRISIS. Pierre nails Carney’s hypocrisy. Please share.

[KerryDiotte @KerryDiotte]

Do you agree Canadian taxpayers should not pay welfare to illegals?

Classic episode from a couple years back, that’s true. But, if anything, Canada has gotten worse under Trudeau 2.0 aka PM Mark “Chilli 🌶️ Con” Carney.

[KerryDiotte @KerryDiotte]

Renowned Liberal show host Bill Maher says Canada 🇨🇦 has lurched too far left, fails badly on affordability and is too woke. Do you agree?

[KerryDiotte @KerryDiotte]

Carney is proving to be an epic failure. Check this grim news. His savvy banker image is an illusion.

[KerryDiotte @KerryDiotte]

Mainstream media is gradually catching on to Carney who’s failing as PM and is getting downright snarky with them. #AboutTime

[cbcwatcher @cbcwatcher]

Mackenzie Gray just went 2-for-2 on Carney

Trump trade progress?
Carney: face snort “I’ll keep you posted.”
Gordie Howe bridge tolls & opening?
Carney: “Willing to clarify aspects of the current arrangements.”

When Carney's rambling superpower meets direct questions, you get the face, the snort, and the curt non-answer

[KerryDiotte @KerryDiotte]

Canadians are gradually waking up to Carney. He’s all talk. No action.

[Rachael Thomas @RachaelThomasAB]

The polls say Canadians are giving Mark Carney a pass.

The economy says otherwise.

Under Carney, Canada has seen the worst first-year growth record for any prime minister since at least 1963. GDP has shrunk, consumers are pulling back, and the housing market remains weak.

At some point, excuses stop working and the record speaks for itself.

LIBERAL COVERUP!

[Aaron Gunn @AaronGunn]

BREAKING: The Liberals have moved to shut down debate on their billion-dollar bailout of billionaire Vancouver developers.

Refusing to answer straightforward questions on where this idea came from, who lobbied for it and which developers, banks and foreign investors stand to benefit the most.

Cover up? This is crony capitalism at its worse.

Liberal logic that’s more nonsensical than logical.

[Pierre Poilievre @PierrePoilievre]

Mark Carney’s announced today that he is keeping the Liberal shipping ban on Canadian oil, while American tankers are free to ship in the same waters.

That is a costly and nonsensical decision.

Conservatives will keep fighting the shipping ban to get our energy to Asia and get paycheques in our pockets.

[KerryDiotte @KerryDiotte]

Wise words below from “Dief the Chief" the nickname of legendary Conservative John G. Diefenbaker, the 13th prime minister of Canada 🇨🇦. I met the man at a conference in Ottawa when I was a student at Carleton U. He was genuinely nice.

A Liberal Government of Canada ad has been running non-stop on national TV. Spoiler alert. It’s all about windmills and ‘clean energy.’ No ethical Canadian oil and gas pipelines mentioned. At the end of the ad it points you to this: https://t.co/ARK313s8cX

Something smells very rotten!

[Pierre Poilievre @PierrePoilievre]

BREAKING: I’ve written to the Ethics Committee Chair calling for an urgent investigation into Carney’s condo bailout.

Who lobbied to force people who can’t afford groceries to bail out billionaire Liberal donors and powerbrokers?

We are fighting to stop the Liberal Club from getting richer by making you poorer.
