@cdnpress.bsky.social Picrights is going to destroy longstanding relationships. I don't appreciate it when my photos are used repeatedly with no compensation, and one thumbnail-sized image is used, and one will get a $300 demand from some unknown organization threatening legal action. Poor ethics.

Conservatives would rather roll over than fight for our nation. Voters with the separatist Bloc Quebecois will stand with Canada.
I saw this on my parliamentary trips to Europe and NATO. None of Poilievre's MPs bothered to show up. Bloc MPs came and worked with us to advance a strong Canada agenda.

The same firm ran a campaign to save CBC — and Canada Proud's push to defund it
“It's like the Trump administration promoting Biden in an ad campaign,” said Ahmed Al-Rawi, Director of the Disinformation Project at Simon Fraser University. “This is unreal, like science fiction.”
