Agreed. But when critical thinking is systematically being removed from the education system, well, you see what happens.

OMG! CBC stands for Canadian Broadcasting System. It’s Canada’s free news reporting system. NOT owned by oligarchs. Do you even understand what free reporting means?
It’s not that well orchestrated. It’s a LACK of education. The happiest countries in the world are also the most educated.
What is your age group? And what is your education level?
The spread of fascism is being spread because oligarchs own the news. They own the newspapers, and they own the TV news. This was part of Mark Carney’s platform. He would support the CBC. Free news. Maybe the last FREE news in Canada. If your personal take is that the spread of fascism is being promoted by a particularly well organized institution, then maybe stop talking about it, and start fighting against it!

I’m still hoping Washington, Oregon, and California become part of B.C.
And yet, Albertans want to join the US? Do they think they’re going to retain their health care, maternity leave, etc.??? Are they just stupid?
As a Canadian woman, I feel unsafe crossing the border.
While there are countless advantages of the internet, there are just as many disadvantages. Dare I say evil? The spread of disinformation, racism, ableism, misogyny, the complete lack of belief in science, etc. And this has become rampant because of lack of proper education—critical thinking. Does it not strike you that the least educated people vote for Trump? This is by design.
Hence, education. They don’t understand fascism because they haven’t been educated about fascism. It’s spreading across the globe and too many people seem oblivious. Perhaps history would be helpful? WWII? Those who are controlling the label are able to do so, because they control the education, or lack thereof: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=fascism+definition&ia=web
Before you start blasting the new liberal government, give them a chance. Carney has done more since he stepped in to the role of prime minister since March 14, than he should have been expected to do. But he’s doing it. He’s dealing with shit that’s not just national, but GLOBAL. Canadians are not alone in the issues of housing, healthcare, food prices, etc. As far as I’m concerned, the global issue is oligarchy. There’s a secondary issue with the rise of fascism/nazism (a lack of history education, perhaps?) I can guarantee Carney won’t be handing out doughnuts and coffee to racists and Nazis…
6·10 days agoIf someone needs immediate health care, it’s there. Everyone is triaged, which means you are evaluated and are put in order of severity. No one loses their house because of health bills. No one loses their life savings because of health bills. No one dies because they can’t afford their medication. In the US health care is big business. In Canada it’s a right.
“improvised” will be rushed ahead in priorities? No, that’s not how it works. No one is dying.
I’m in B.C., and near the Washington border. It was a “right of passage” when we turned 21 and were legal to drink in Washington, USA. I think there was a lot of eye-rolling when we Canadian hooligans came over the border. But, you were always welcoming and hospitable. I miss you, neighbours 🥺.

What nationality are you? Will you deny that: Qatar human rights are a significant concern, particularly regarding the treatment of migrant workers, who face exploitation, wage theft, and unsafe working conditions. Additionally, there are restrictions on freedom of expression, discrimination against women, and laws that criminalize homosexuality, which contribute to a challenging human rights environment. Is it any wonder Trump is accepting a gift from Qatar?
