What Did Thomas Keeper Do? He failed to disclose a domestic assault charge from 2005. It was dropped, there wasn't a conviction, but he was required by law to disclose it.
Much like Manitoba's Wab Canoe's domestic violence charges, later 'dropped' by the girl involved.
All Mr. Keeper had to do was to own up to it & correct the mistake. Instead he called police and lied about being assaulted.
Now, somehow, Elections Canada is going after the reporter for this.
Canada is lost, the Carney government will be the end of us here.
Ezra Levant taught Keean Bexte the art of e-begging very well.
I haven't heard anything from Bexte since the day it was announced earlier in the year that his Countersignal outfit & Candace Malcolm's True North were folding together to create Juno News (while laying off everyone at True North like Rachel Parker & Harrison Faulkner).
Interesting as well that they are claiming that Juno News has the "biggest independent newsroom" in the country after the downsizing. And the fact that Rebel News still exists.
But Rebel has a longer history than True North, lots of old timers and are always signing up new, minimum wage talent.
When Malcolm merged with Bexte (while laying off all her young staff and losing Andrew Lawton to running for office), it said to me that she was waving the white flag that her less scummy Rebel-lite business model had failed.
Only at 2:50 did he hint at what he's being charged with: "I will protect my sources." Any journalist worth his salt would.
Section 91(1) is a speech offence about “false statements” relating to a candidate’s character, requiring proof of knowing falsity and intent to affect the election.
This sounds like the kind of thing Douglas Mackey was charged with. It sounds like a direct consequence of the whole Russia moral panic engulfing the collective West for the past 10 years.
I doubt this will go anywhere, but the problem with Canada is that they "investigate" to punish."He will have his day in court", they'll say, except that months or years of your life are wasted, tens of thousands in attorney's fees, etc.
Around that, Canada's $Doallar is like 0.70 USD. 10 years of Liberals.
That's correct: the process IS the punishment. Trial by torture is alive and well! The Crown knows that have nothing: he can easily prove everything, it's all based on public documents. But they'll drag this out for years, and for some reason the Gov't won't cover his legal fees like they do for terrorists, for example.

Honestly I think Rebel news kinda sucks. It's all ragebait journalism...
Seconded.

Better not watch Canada's CBC! It's all hard-left rage, all day long.
Truth! But it's weird cause sites like ground.News rate it as moderate....

Isn't that something like 25,000 euros?
The other problem with lawfare in Canada is that at this point, 80%+ of all sitting judges are Trudeau appointees.
And Trudeau Liberals aren't just crony apparatchiks, they are true believers in the cause.
