Google has agreed to giving back a $100M back to the Canadian Government to fund Legacy Media, of which the lions share will be going back to CBC.
What we don’t actually get to see on this deal is how much MORE the Coalition Government has agreed to SPEND promoting their partisanship through legacy media…as in, if they committed an additional $100 Million Taxpayer Dollars on Google Ads and get this same money back, it’s a backdoor way of still funding their narrative through taxpayer dollars.
And it’s bullshit.
Facebook/Meta has told Trudeau and the Liberals to kick rocks and won’t be a part of this extortionary practice and are thusly refusing to allow links to Canadian Media to be shared on their site.
What does this mean to Canadian Media?
It’s a lot bigger than you’d think.
During my last Townhall with Shane Getson, @corymorgan, spoke a little about this.
Cory works for the Western Standard - independent media organization - and said that readership dropped 60% immediately after Facebook stopped allowing their links. This is a Huge Financial Implication for independent media because they don’t get to suck on the same taxpayer tits that legacy does…
It also has sent ripples through the legacy CBC/CTV media in that their revenues have also dropped because people can just click the links on Facebook to read their lies and fabrications.
And Canadian Media has been taking an absolute beating over the last couple of years since people have tuned out on the COVID rhetoric and a lot waking to the fact that what was being posted was mostly bullshit to begin with.
Read this as an example:
And what you’d realize is that despite the warnings issued by Health Canada that the COVID Vaccines produced by both Moderna and Pfizer increase risk of Heart Damage…they’ll do anything to promote a message saying that an increase in Heart Attacks is everything BUT the Jabs that causes this.
So yeah…it’s no shocker that CTV has cut back jobs and even more recently, CBC just cut another 600 staff, a couple of weeks before Christmas…so that they can still give all upper management healthy Taxpayer Funded Bonuses!
Anyways…
What I’m saying here is that since this has all transpired, I’ve felt relatively safe in not having to rely on Facebook/Meta for my readership…and when comes down to it, because Substack isn’t listed as a Media Platform, I can still post full article links on Facebook.
Admittedly…I’m not a huge user of the book of faces, really only use it to see some updates from the fam…pass along birthday wishes and have less than 100 friends on the platform…but get less than 1% of my reads through them.
This is really a missed opportunity!
Without legacy being able to counter actual information on FB with fabrications…and with me being able to post this actual information, it’s time to start hammering this harder than Rachel Notley hammers her liver!
So…if you’re on facebook, please find me and connect. I’ll continue to post as much on there as I can to keep Canadians informed and you can help push the message.
If you’re not…maybe think about joining and what this could help do and consider it as an option.
I won’t hold it against you if you don’t bother with either…but I know what needs to happen to build out some Grass Roots for helping restore Canada…and it starts with properly informing Canadians and right now has never been a more opportune time!
You can also post mine and other relevant substacks on facebook independently, by going to the browser version (outside of the substack app), clicking on the stack you want to share and posting it in the “what’s on your mind”, space. Doing this will feature the entire stack and any message that you want to share along with it:
Will this get you blocked or banned from Facebook?
Not with my content.
I continue to share it across the platform and have since I’ve started my substack. Since most of what I post is backed by links and actual statistics, it’d be pretty hard for Facebook to actually give a single shit about enforcing any requests from the Liberals to Censor Canadian Content…or even reading it.
Heck…I might even just start a YakkStack Group on there to make this grow a little faster.
Anyways…just thought I’d share my thoughts on a really excellent opportunity to thumb your nose at the Liberal/NDP Coalition and start working at Taking Back Canada for Canadians!
