Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio -
"You don't speak for me."

It’s close to impossible to find anything concerning Faith Goldy’s run for mayor of Toronto. It’s had to believe that the largest companies in the world would attack free speech. Fine them $ 10 billion each.
$10 billion is pennies to them…make it a crime and lock them up
the big boyz NEVER do time.
never.
well, unless you steal from another big boy like madoff did er, ‘made off’.
watch ‘cultural high’. you get, for having 2, two, TWO reefers you get (drum roll) ten YEARS minimum.

They’re subverting the US Constitution more effectively than the fossilized media ever could. Yet show me ANY society or political system that has benefitted and thrived as a result of censorship?
In one of the great ironies of the Internet, the free exchange of information has revealed to citizens across the planet the stark DIFFERENCE between their Communist, Marxist, Fascist countries … and that of FREE Western capitalistic societies. The images reveal every detail of what they’re missing in painfully detailed color monitors.
So, the Tech Titan’s are putting up a rearguard FIGHT to squelch any discussion about how those BEAUTIFUL images were created … via FREEDOM, LIBERTY, and PROFIT. The leftist, totalitarian-Tech Oligarchs are desperate to change the narrative of how those clean streets, comfortable homes, and bountiful supermarkets were created. ‘They didn’t build that’ … they claim … it was built by a Strong centralized omnipotent Government. An omnipotent Oligarchy. It was built by your overlords.
This TRUTH will also be revealed in due time. Mankind hasn’t advanced by being willfully (or forcefully) ignorant. This censorship will be penetrated … even if we have to communicate it via short wave radio … oh wait … that’s what Nellie Ohr did.
Well said.
You’ve lived it.
Too bad … ALL the pampered generations of Americans (mine included) are clueless about how they arrived at this moment in human history. And we’ve simply stopped teaching it … because … “all morality, all history, all truths are relevant”. Smh.
It’s a shame; all these claims of bias would be far more valid if he wasn’t the weakest and most corrupt president in history.
…oh look….it’s Andrew desperately trying to get attention
All of UnWit’s imaginary friends are desperate for attention like that, because he demands so much from them.
Spare us your faux outrage Andy my boy ….
most of us here are interested in TRUTH – not leftist TDS BS…capisce.?
$4+% GDP – Lowest Unemployment for Minorities – Lowest Food Stamp usage EVAH…. Its the ECONOMY Sonny. Weak presidents such as the the previous wanker in the WH dont do economy like DJT has…they don’t do much of Anything for that matter unless of course trying to destroy ones country is “something”… a lot like the pretnder in the PMO.
…longest bull market in history
Liberals like to ignore who the other choice was….raise taxes
… “the longest … yadda yadda yadda … was a DESPERATE attempt to assign some Obama-credit to the current economic BOOM. Isn’t it funny that the proponents of Hockey-stick graphs are ignoring EVERY Hockey-stick BOOM graph of the Trump economy. Yep … the ObamaCONomy graphs ever-so-gently raised a ‘handicapped-ramp incline’ of our financial fortunes from the junk-mortgage depression. Nevermind the ‘ships-ladder’ incline of every economic indicator since MY President took office.
Yeah … let’s conflate two completely divergent graph lines. Nice try FAKE News.
Trump inherited the best economy in decades and still managed to rack up an unsustainable trillion dollar deficit by giving handouts to his billionaire buddies. Like I said, weak and corrupt.
Let me improve your analogy …
MY President inherited a comatose patient on the life-support of a decade of 0% interest rates. MY President immediately mainlined an IV of lowered taxes, broad spectrum antibiotic to kill choking regulations, and constantly talked to a semi conscious America about true HOPE and CHANGE.
Yeah … Trump inherited a … convalescent patient. No longer bed-ridden by the “new normal” (horizontal) position … the American Patient is walking the halls, getting stronger every day.
That’s odd…I distinctly remember Obama’s deficit as over $9 trillion…that’s still unsustainable
..and Obama gave most of that away to foreign countries
If you want to say Trump inherited the best economy…after $9 trillion …at least give him credit for not wrecking it
…the other choice is campaigning on raising taxes
Fake news, brought to you by fake search results.
That is why I watch his rallies. They are unedited.
Each and evryone of these so called social media “Giants” should be broken up. They are in fact “Public Utilities”. To see that happen within the next few years..?
Beyond Priceless.
They’re not public utilities.
If you mean not owned by the government, then sure, same as phone companies and most power companies. Shall we also filter phone service by political ideology? They are each near monopolies in their respective sector, there is no viable search engine that does not rely on google in the background. In combination, they are oligarchies whose wealth outstrips the old robber barons that inspired the anti-trust laws, and they provide what is an essential service in the modern age.
AT&T was broken up for far less reason.
I am not sure that regulating as public utilities is the correct response, as regulations from the bureaucracy mandating their current bias are a real threat, nor am I convinced that simply breaking them up will result in anything other than dozens of small companies with the same bias, and different but related near monopolies in each of the fields they currently dominate.
The root of the problem is these companies are all driven by the same culture that comes from a 10 mile radius in the most left wing part of the most left wing state. A place that is now paying civil servants six figure salaries to scoop up human feces from the sidewalks outside their headquarters, and has an phone app integrated with google maps for citizens to report said feces on the sidewalk.
They are each near monopolies in their respective sector, there is no viable search engine that does not rely on google in the background.
https://www.bing.com. Comes bundled as the default search engine on every copy of Windows, which is 85% of the desktop computer market. That’s monopoly territory, and Microsoft has been charged for less.
There are literally dozens of video sharing sites and social networking sites and services out there. It’s just that most of them charge for their services rather than giving them away for free, and so the Free Shit Army discounts them as “viable” options.
You’re too stupid to comment on this issue. You don’t know anything about how the Internet works, or the market these services operate in. You’re standing in a shopping mall full of shoe stores insisting that the Free Shoe Store has a monopoly because more people shop there.
Declare them to be publishers with editorial responsibility for their platform until they cease meddling. I imagine being liable for the content for a week would be enough to break facebook, twitter, or google. Actually I think a month of not being able to censor would break twitter, as their business model appears to be to sell stock to leftists and islamists in exchange for controlling the conversation.
That or perhaps declare that once a company enters oligarchy territory, they are bound by the same constitutional requirements as the US government, and any censorship becomes a civil rights issue. Again, a week of their current behaviour would be enough to break them in court.

That’s not just the nuclear option, it’s the nuclear winter option. While it’s at least in line with First Amendment case law, making every social media site legally responsible for anything posted on it will simply destroy all social media everywhere, because it’s not economically (nor even physically) possible to vet all the posts on a site of any non-trivial size. It’s destroying the village in order to save it.
Perhaps it is because 96% of media outlets are liberal?
“Break them up” is right. They are nothing but facilitators of the Democratic Party, David Brock and George Soro’s Media Matters leftist propaganda and brainwashing organs. There is a precedent for this. After WWII, the German and Japanese companies that were deemed complicit in the Nazi and Japanese Imperialist war machine were broken up.
Can’t reply directly to Andrew’s laughable remarks about the great US economy suddenly offside with debt collectivists insisted on.
If you had happened to go to a good school you would be aware that sins of omission are the worst of all, so you get another F.
Best economy in decades? How so. Not a single year of better than 3% growth (Trump will do so in 2018, his first full year).
Home ownership at the lowest rate in decades, despite record low interest rates and easy credit from quantitative easing.
Labour participation rate lowest in decades, lots of discouraged workers (not bidding up wages due to labour shortages).
Obama fought with Congress to increase deficits to double the debt (Trump fought with Congress to reduce deficits).
I don’t know why I bother retorting Andrew’s and others’ selective ignorance and cherry picking and faulty logic, but I do.

Google has been doing the same thing with regards to Tesla over the last 2 weeks to try and help Musk. It is shameful.
I wish Google, Facebook and others would at least be honest about their bias. Those of us who work in high tech and design software all know that these guys are full of crap when they say they are not biased, but unfortunately the average Joe seems to believe them.
It is the dishonesty that I find disgusting even more so than the bias.
