Not sure, but I think a thesaurus lookup of 'delusional' would list as synonyms, cbc viewer and al jazeera viewer. Merry Christmas to all - even the delusional.

Fans of the Legacy Media are usually retired Liberal voters sitting smug on their Home Equity confident "their guy" would never touch that or their Public Pensions. Lets wait.....

I'm 65 and report on our enemy thieving gov for many decades, I don't know how much info you have on these criminals, but I find if I speak to strangers about the Globalist/Liberals they are equal in not knowing much, if only Canadians of all ages would watch independent media & not legacy bribed media..!!! Happy New Year..!!!

Lol, more painting with a wide brush...I am 62 and retired, I have not watched the CBC for approx 20 years...I know very few people my age that are Liberal supporters...More info from the legacy media perpetrating the minds of the weak...Seems to me most of the "blame it on the boomers" is coming from the legacy media...We now know you continue to watch the CBC...

Harold B.'s avatar

He is going to more than touch most of what they have .

Harold B.'s avatar

Well I never realized how many stupid people I know . I care about my friends and family but many should not be voting . Their ignorance is beyond belief .

Brent's avatar

yah, I hear you...I feel the same way...I think the beginning of their critical thinking decline started in the 90's with political correctness...Society in general has become woke because of this corruption...not just seniors, but all age groups...Having people trying to tell me how to speak has been tiresome, but at 62, I am still holding my own against all these dumb cunts...It seems to me women and the younger generations have fallen hard for this wokeism and it is destroying society around the world...but I continue to hear all the blame going to the boomers, and I, personally no very few liberal boomers, with age comes wisdom!

And Poilievre talking like he's going be the pm by the end of the year.

Don's avatar

THAT wud be the best possible outcome of this decade-long spiral to Hell..and what the VAST majority of Real Canadians want..(but there hasn't been much of THAT happening in that same decade..)..so pitchforks at the ready.🇨🇦...🔥

Why would Juno want you to know that Canadians who rely on state broadcasters like the CBC view themselves as uniquely informed? Why would they think otherwise? Out of 40 million canadians, how many were Polled? Typically 2,500. Viewership is in the tank and its been that way for decades. Those numbers don't lie. CBC is obsolete. Any corporation that cannot function without taxpayer dollars is a corporation that does not deserve to exist. Period.

I was thinking more along the lines of "eunuchly" informed.

Explains a lot though

Also interesting...

In Canada the main propaganda arm of the Liberal Government is the CBC.

In the Arab world the main propaganda arm of it and Qatar is Al Jazeera.

OK... Makes sense now...

And so the biggest publicly supported Federal Government psy-op source is the CBC ably assisted by Al Jazeera.

How nice.

The younger generation gets their news on line. Only the older crowd still watch TV news. Having said that, even WE are watching less and less and getting our news on line.

I'm 74 and turned off the legacy media more than a decade ago. I subscribe to Juno News and Western Standard now.

Joe Boudreault's avatar

You could also try Rebel News, and Epoch Times is superb.

Paul T.'s avatar

I subscribe to Juno News, True North, Rebel, Jasmin Laine, The Pleb, Moose On The Loose - David, John Bolton and Northern Perspective. I have not watched an actual CBC or CTV (fake)newscast in at least 20 years. When in 2012 CBC announced that "the Science behind climate change is settled" and would no longer present opposing points, that solidified for me that they - the frauds - could not be trusted even a little bit...

Joe Boudreault's avatar

I agree. I'm in that same boat with you.

Rick Morrow's avatar

I listen to Jasmin Laine as well.

Rick Morrow's avatar

I read what's allowed on Rebel News. I had an Epoch Times subscription but found it overwhelming in terms of number of contacts I was getting.

Joe Boudreault's avatar

Rick, so far as I know, Rebel News is not censored, as they don't take any government money at all... they are totally crowdfunded and subscriptions only. I think they are the best independent media in Canada, alongside of True North and Juno. some people also go for the Western Standard and some of the Sun newspapers.

Epoch Times is worth every penny ...there's quite a lot of stuff there ...magazine formats etc...I mostly go for the good interviews and documentaries. $11-12 a month and it is global not just Canadian... good old fashioned news like the mainstream media used to be 50 years ago...

Cheers

I haven't watched news on line for many years . All parrot the same news handed to them by the people who pay them , the government . You have to watch where you get your news on line as well .

Kim Morton's avatar

I watch tv news every day. Mostly to see local news which is difficult to get anywhere else.

I have boomer inlaws that say they do that too, they watch global news, both now have severe TDS and think the conman carney is doing ok but needs more time. Propaganda is a very powerful tool on the unwary, inattentive and especially the less intelligent who think because it's on the telly it must be true. And when every station has exactly the same headlines and stories (obviously read from the same government bulletin) then they think it has to be true not realizing that it could also mean that they are all lying or spinning the truth for their liberal paymasters.

Kim Morton's avatar

I watch globull bc news in the morning, or more correctly it is on while I have breakfast, CHEK mail, and play with the dog. At night we try to watch CHEK, because it is the only island news. I also get the times communist email, but some times the left wing bias is so bad I have to hit delete before I throw up. TBF though they do publish any letters I send them.

What a joke , if CBC was so important and informative, they would not need corporate welfare. I for sure , do not want my tax dollars going to this propaganda machine. They are the ones covering up for the real threat. Open borders ( illegal immigration) money laundering. And out right incompetence from the DEI hires .the criminals giving them selfs a pay raise every year . Well, the rest of Canada goes without, because of the corruption incompetence and outright lies from the people that work for us ( government/ organized crime)

RON CASKEY's avatar

Of course Carney like Trudeau spends millions of tax payer dollars on the Liberal propaganda mouthpiece CBC. It's time to DE FUND the CBC and let them stand on their own. CBC is biased from the get go and pro Liberal.

Dennis Cross's avatar

Snobs! That's the impression I get whenever I talk with someone who gets their information from CBC, and to some lesser extent CTV, and Global. The CTV and Global afficionados seem to be of the opinion because it isn't CBC they are getting accurate reporting especially when it comes to news about our neighbors in the U.S.. The truth is that they are also Government funded, and spew the same hateful lies as the CBC. Al Jazeera I don't get because it is simply the promotional department for Muslim extremists, and would only appeal to the Muslim voters.

So if that is where the bulk of Canadian voters get their information, the question of Alberta separation becomes critical.

Yes ... unfortunately we need to break up into smaller blocks , regardless of the uncertainty

The ignorance paradox ... those who know the least often think they know the most.

Kenneth P Zehr's avatar

They only hear what the gov. wants them to hear.

Albertian's avatar

"at a cost of $163,821" Does anyone know if Earnscliffe Strategy Group is a liberal supporter, sounds like a pay back contact in many ways.

Kim Morton's avatar

If more informed is the equivalent of buying the lie, then Lamestream media watchers are top of class in being wrong.

Andrew's avatar

Al Jazerra is biased but you will learn about 3rd world countries watching it. Especially Africa.

CBC is unCanadian, even ignoring the bias, it is so dominated by US news, or how Canada is affected by the US, or what the US is doing in Ukraine, US blah blah.

Anthony Tasker's avatar

Both outlets are brainwashing mind control operations ... There is information there but it is hard to watch and not be affected a lot on a subconscious level ... maybe almost impossible

Ionedery2's avatar

It all comes down to who you trust. After covid and all the lies and aggressive restrictions and the push to take the "vaccine", there's no way I'd ever go back to trusting the public funded media. They betrayed us all bigtime and don't deserve any trust now. I'm glad that people are turning off this TV garbage propaganda. Once you wake up, there's no going back.

'cognitive dissonance" seems alive & well in Canada which is why we're becoming a "failed state"
