Well shit. Color me shocked. Who would have thought that Trudeau, the same duplicitous piece of shit who's always sucking himself and the media off, would actually bribe journalists with millions of dollars to make him look good?
Guess we know why he has such a hate-boner for Rebel.
I don't know Canadian law very well, but I'm going to go ahead and guess that this has to be illegal in some way, right?
Although, knowing progressive liberals, they found some loophole to exploit.
Not like anyone will be reporting on it anyway! lol

Honestly? They probably just called it an aid package of some description and made it legal.

that'd be a tough sell if they excluded some media outlets--which they did. This probably won't sink Trudeau on its own because he has too much big big big fish supporting him, but I can totally see it and all his other scandals convincing the fish to support O'Toole instead. Tragically.

Trudeau is done, get ready for the epic disappointment that will be O'Toole.

Welcome to Canadian politics, where best case scenario is that the government is so ineffectual that it grinds to a halt and nothing gets done.

One can make an argument that this is the best case scenario in any government.

I figured they'd get around that by simply asserting that they're not real media organisations and instead some gutter press. Seems to be what he's doing at the moment anyway.

Loophole? I wish, they are pretty comfortable about picking and choosing when the law applies and to who. They got reams of pithy phrases like "disproportionately affected community" and "the uncommonality of the times" they'll drone on about if anyone calls them out on this.

They've been paying media outlets for years now.

The CBC gets like $600m per year or something absurd like that iirc.

To paraphrase Ian Fleming,

Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. Three times is enemy action

Fifteen hundred times is... uh... /pepper sprays random civilians

The CIA do the same thing here in American, only it's classified, called Operation Mockingbird, done of the pretext of targeting foreign peoples and governments. This needs to be completely exposed and removed.
