Money For Nothing

It’s all well and good to end the requirements for useless ingredients for streaming services, but why turn around and pay streamers directly for stuff no one watches?

The federal government will “eliminate” the financial contribution requirement for streamers set by the CRTC and replace it with government funding, it said in a court document.

Nonetheless, it’s anyone’s guess as to whether this will actually happen or not.

The office of Culture Minister Marc Miller did not immediately respond when asked to clarify the government’s stance or state whether the government plans to eliminate the contribution requirement permanently or temporarily.

Canadian Exceptionalism

When the Liberal backroom boys start to admit that the rest of the world couldn’t care less about Canada, you just know that your chances of “sticking it” to Trump are somewhere between slim and zero.

Clow said that while the world should have stuck together 18 months ago, it would be the wrong approach for Canada to unilaterally retaliate now.

“The ship has kind of sailed here,” he said. “For Canada to now move on its own and implement a whole bunch of retaliatory tariffs, I think, would leave us even more exposed to further escalation and further pain from the Trump administration.”

Antisemitism is in their bones and in their blood.

Rep. Adam Smith (D-WA), the top Democrat on the Armed Services Committee, voted to defund aid and defense sales to Israel. He also explained his vote, but he dropped an interesting nugget buried within his criticism of Israel:

To date, my family and I have had our home vandalized, a fire has been set in my driveway, my neighbors’ lives have been disrupted by demonstrations in the middle of the night, town halls meant to be forums for dialogue have been shut down, and a staff member has been physically assaulted. Those who engage in this type of behavior model a dangerous form of corrosive politics that seeks to intimidate those who disagree with them. We must be able to have civil discourse if we want to solve difficult problems, and I remain committed to open, respectful engagement.

Seems it worked.

There Goes The Narrative

Ann Widdecombe had a very eventful death.

First she died from natural causes, then she was bludgeoned to death by a white man – let’s be very clear, a white man, we found a white man everyone – during a “bungled burglary” – then another white man, definitely a white man, was arrested who “wasn’t politically motivated” and had just randomly driven 300 miles from Rotherham to Ann’s house and back with a weapon.

Then it turned out that yes, it’s being investigated by counter terror police and the suspect is a man who was reading communist literature and has learning difficulties. To be honest, if he’s a communist, you don’t need to tell me he’s got learning difficulties, because if he didn’t, he wouldn’t be a communist.

Ace: The Lotus Eaters podcast pointed out the UK cops now routinely hide the race of a suspect — unless he’s white, in which case they repeat it endlessly, as they did here.

Oh no!

Corus, the parent company of Global TV, is preparing to shut down news production in Calgary and Edmonton and transfer the work to Toronto, the Western Standard has learned.

Western Standard souces say Corus is expected to make the announcement on Thursday.

“There will be a lot of layoffs,” said the source.

One source said the last day of August is when the transfer is set to be completed.

“From that point on, both Calgary and Edmonton newscasts will be produced remotely from Toronto.

Corus has faced severe, ongoing challenges in the broadcasting industry.

The company is facing declining revenues from advertising and higher debt costs.

In late 2025, the company cut 35–46 jobs in the news department.

Torrent Of Crickets

If a Tory government ever did what the Liberals just did with those unsold condominiums, the torrent of criticism would be more like a tsunami with the mainstream media pulling out all the stops to pile on the government. Just sayin’…

Prime Minister Mark Carney has faced a torrent of criticism since June 18, when he announced a plan to work with the B.C. government that he said would help homebuyers struggling to save for a down payment.

Carney has since said his government did not explain the program well.
