This is not at all surprising because we certainly had it happening here in the US also on basically every mainstream Channel. But it is beyond disgusting even 6 years later. I guess what is more horrifying to me is how many people still believe the propaganda they were fed. They are blind and deaf and have no idea. But they are everywhere.

Suzy Cue's avatar

They sure are. And it’s as if they’ve blocked it from their memory. Creepy, actually.

Trying hard's avatar

I find it very creepy and bizarre but I'm realizing Maybe people have always been this way and I'm just now understanding the depth of the blindness and the deafness

Suzy Cue's avatar

Yes! I wonder the same thing.

Barbara's avatar

Yes; so sad.

The CBC has been a house organ for the liberal government long before the plandemic, they just went all in when they were needed to spread the "safe and effective" narrative. The last time I watched their biased reporting was over 30 years ago when Preston Manning and the Reform party didn't do well in a federal election, their biased reporter was actually grinning, gloating and chuckling about it.

I have zero use for the CBC, zero.

I don't watch CBC intentionally but it was on the TV when I measured up a project recently and it reminded me of drinking super sweet drink mix syrup. The way they talk is akin to "The Ministry of Truth" from the book "1984". I hate it because I know it is propaganda.

You are too kind. It is a building filled with soppish liars and leftist loons and a complete waste of money. They are the enemies of all that is good and wholesale lying Lieberal loons.

This guy has all the signs of being in the Luciferian Brotherhood. He’s trying to distract attention from the Brotherhood (CBC is a Crown corporation and the Crown is Satanic) and blame some communist government somewhere. Typical.

Dr Monica's avatar

indeed, presstitutes of the lowest life...

edward's avatar

CBC actually stands for CanCUCKistan Bigots and Cucks. It is a disorganization of useful idiots pushing politically correct lies that totally obscure the Truth. The useful idiot employees need to all be fired and the building used to shelter abused women. If there ever were a group of lying losers it is this twatish twerp disorganization of dizzy dopes pushing the moronic leftist LIEberal agenda.

To add to your store of knowledge, in 2019 the Canadian Liberal government did something novel that they had never done before. They offered subsidies for newsroom staff at Newspapers, later extended to broadcasters. The conservative opposition party vowed to end the subsidies. The predictable result was the news media said nice things about the liberals and their policies (such as the "jabs") and ignored or condemned the conservatives. The subsidy rate per hour was doubled in early 2020's. The CBC, already heavily subsidized by the government partook of the subsidies.

Below is the situation as reported by Dave Snow in the Hub April 22, 2025 just before Canadians went to the polls for the last federal election.

"Amid this obvious conflict of interest, this DeepDive seeks to do two things: first, it catalogues the myriad government policies that directly or indirectly subsidize private news outlets in Canada. Second, it explores how News Media Canada, the industry’s main advocacy group, has publicly lobbied for increasing government support over the last several years, including on the eve of the election.

Their advocacy has succeeded, as temporary programs have become permanent and federally mandated funds for journalism have expanded. However, it has come at an enormous cost to journalistic objectivity and independence. We have arrived at the scenario many predicted, with newspapers openly advocating for preferential treatment, praising the governments that fund them, and failing to disclose their entitlements.

Nevertheless, the pace with which Canada subsidized its news media is staggering, with a recent report estimating the federal government will spend $325 million in 2024-25 between the Canada Media Fund ($154.1 million), the Canada Periodical Fund ($86.5 million), the Canadian Journalism Labour Tax Credit ($65 million), and Local Journalism Initiative ($19.6 million). This is in addition to the roughly $1.4 billion yearly federal subsidy to the CBC, which Prime Minister Mark Carney has promised to increase by $150 million if the Liberals are re-elected.

Between the various media support programs and CBC funding, the federal government is spending over $1.7 billion annually subsidising journalism and media. That’s more than the $1.4 billion it will spend annually on the Canada Disability Benefit—and more than it plans to spend over the first five years of its National Pharmacare Plan combined."

That is the story in a nutshell Fred. Thank you for compiling the information and posting.

The cheating in the election was much worse than this. I have seen films by independent news agencies that filmed the Liberals threatening poll scrutineers with life in prison if they counted the votes; that was their job in most polls. The Liberals then counted the votes themselves, and then many times threw the votes away so nobody could do any recount. I have heard many people who witnessed this and some who found hundreds of thousands if not millions of votes thrown away (which is illegal). I know many polls where thousands of votes were "counted" for the Liberals, where only about 100-150 people voted in that poll for decades.

Fred Jewett's avatar

You got my curiosity up Rick. I was concerned that the Liberal wins in recent elections was through cheating but you are the first to show me some examples of cheating. Scrutineers cannot touch the ballots but are entitled to watch the whole Polls election process from sealing of the boxes to tallying the votes. I wish I could get more documentation on cheating as I know Carney does not have his country's best interests in his evil heart.

Rick Zammuto's avatar

I and many others saw the scrutineers ordered to the other side of polls, while the Liberals pretended to count the votes before throwing them away.

This funding eliminates the reality of a free press because the government has bought control; even if known, this is an official form of graft. You might as well call all these outlets PRAVDA, which is, ironically, Bolshevik Russian for TRUTH. This is totalitarianism. I knew the government was contributing to the CBC, but the widespread funding makes the “total” in totalitarianism especially meaningful. And … Bills C-9, C-22, and C-34 are coming into being. The coercion of ideology has infected the body politic … and the virus is growing.

State Funded News Media. What other countries do this? Hmmmm…

Perhaps it is important to keep showing all these remarkable people who were brave enough to question particularly the MSM sources that ,in my opinion, may very well be paid handsomely for what "not" to report re : Xinhua News Agency . Tiananmen Square Massacre is no longer in the CCP's records - erased - probably considered a fringe group of no importance , The Convoy considered a fringe group- Covid data sealed here for 15 years - seems by that time there will be no records either and only the fringe ones who had any issues .Were the Hong Kong demonstrators considered a "fringe" group of no importance as well?

Is the pattern to "minimize" part of the propaganda from a country that has a playbook easy to find ....

Diana Barahona's avatar

The Crown is Satanic: Queen Elizabeth ATE CHILDREN. But go ahead and blame China for “infiltrating” the CBC.

UncleMac's avatar

The level of propaganda in Canada is bad enough, rumour has Kim Jong-Un has a team assigned to watch CBC and take notes.

How bad? Well... the Canadian Armed Forces saw the Covid scamdemic as an opportunity to practice propaganda techniques on Canadians. I wish I was joking.

So when you see deluded Canadians echoing Mark Carney's talking point and spouting hatred for Trump, blaming the US for the failure of the Canadian economy, offer a prayer for us.

Lori's avatar

Canada blaming the US for their failure, that is rich. Canada is a pimple on Carney's ass. Canadians best get some balls and quick and stop acting like milquetoasts.

UncleMac's avatar

As the old saying goes, elections have consequences. The level of Chinese interference was briefly acknowledged but then disappeared off the radar.

Rick Zammuto's avatar

Yes, ALL the data the RCMP collected on this fact was eliminated by the Canadian Liberal Party even though the interference was true and still is true!

GreatNorthMedia comments's avatar

The RCMP? do you have any idea how dumb that sounds?

GreatNorthMedia comments's avatar

Chinese Interference? when and how? if any one nation interfered in Canada’s global affairs it ain’t the Chinese.

Rick Zammuto's avatar

The current fake PM lives in China and is a UK citizen not Canadian!

GreatNorthMedia comments's avatar

and they did, with no hesitation or even thinking about it twice. They received orders and soldiers act accordingly when orders are given.

James Jones's avatar

but who was behind all this; who was coordinating that in all these western countries; that the media and govt propaganda should all do the same stuff; surely it was coordinated; with a huge budget; gosh, who could do that in the west?

Rick Zammuto's avatar

The "trusted news network" was a coalition of almost ALL news agencies around the world that said if we tell a lie enough times everybody will believe us! That is how they did it.

Suzy Cue's avatar

Rick Z- I think James was wondering who is acting behind/controlling all the media outlets?

Rick Zammuto's avatar

All the media in NA, CBS, NBC, CNN, ABC, CBC, NYT, etc., all of them, except the real independents.

James Jones's avatar

indeed Suzy; James still ponders what shady organisation(s) was/were coordinating the whole thing; you had it in one; it is almost as though it was an intelligence organisation; what a thought; surely never? It could certainly not have been in the US at all because the agencies there as they are as honest, as the day is long, and also, they would not have the resources either.

Dave Campbell's avatar

Does it take courage to state the obvious 6 years after the fact? Maybe in Canada which has its collective head in the sand.

Laszlo Toth's avatar

As for Rodney Palmer he was speaking out since 2022.

Suzy Cue's avatar

It was a fair question, though. I wondered the same thing; Mr. Leake should have noted something about this.

Jason's avatar

Rodney Palmer is decent.

Fred Jewett's avatar

In Canada the Liberals are famous for announcing mega projects which never get completed.

They spend money on studies by Liberal firms but it dies before appropriations are made.

I figure that is the Liberal government grift at work. It is a lot harder to grift off a piece of miltary hardware than it is off a Liberal sponsered evaluation of a proposal.

Barbara's avatar

Sounds way too familiar.

Lori's avatar

Sounds like Newscum in California.

Fred Jewett's avatar

Agreed, I don't think the conservative party of Canada will do any better if they get elected.

grahamlyons's avatar

Same with the BBC and the US and Australian ABCs...Orwell would not be at all surprised.

Neil Pryke's avatar

All you need to remember is that the CBC was founded...and continues to function on the BBC model...Which is highly political and given to underhand tricks generated in the video-editing suites...

John Day MD's avatar

Thank You, John.

I hope Rodney Palmer has a retirement account. He chose this hill to die upon.

I'll include this in my next news-aggregation blog post.

"The Crown corporation (a company owned by the federal government) was founded by Parliament in 1936 and is funded through parliamentary appropriations and advertising. Its editorial independence is supposedly protected by law."

A couple of problems here. First, the Crown of England is Satanic. The royals eat children, including Canadian children. Queen Elizabeth had a particular liking for native children. https://nexusnewsfeed.com/article/human-rights/kamloops-indian-residential-school-survivor-on-the-queen-s-alleged-connection-to-missing-children

Second, a law can't protect editorial independence, whatever that is. The editorial direction is going to come from the executives. If the executives are child-eating Satanists (I guarantee they are), then everything the CBC publishes is coming directly from the Satanic Council, ie, from Lucifer.

Palmer exposes the sudden makeover in Canadian Broadcasting from journalism to state-dictated propaganda comparable to state media in China and North Korea. Even while Health Canada was reporting hundreds of deaths caused by the covid 'vaccine', CBC was reassuring viewers it was 'safe and effective' and urging them to get the injection. He testifies that from his experience in journalism, he recognized immediately when a journalist crossed the line from reportage into propaganda. It was not only the utter falsehood of what they asserted, but also their nervous, uncertain manner betrayed their difficulty remembering the script they were given. And in direct consequence of those falsehoods, many Canadians died or endure disabling injuries.

Don’t throw the baby out with the bath water. Fire all the TOP HEAVY MANAGEMENT Censorship and social experiments are also redundant. And do what is written in the governments MANDATE for the CBC. Everyone knows that 9/11 was a terrorist attack. Can’t start spinning a narrative now! It’s 25 years later! Comical as they are.
