    Seriously asking: do we think right field voters are answering CBC polls?

    Yesterday my Canadian, trump supporting boss, closed out our office’s management meeting saying “trump endorsed Carney. Do you think it’s reverse psychology?” And the response from one of her middle managers was “Carney doesn’t give a shit about Canadians. He just is interested in his wallet.”

    The propaganda machines are hitting hard already, and I promise you those two would never visit the CBC website let alone answer a CBC survey.

      Is any country other than China/Russia/North Korea, doing anything to stop the foreign propaganda machine?

      How many far right wins do we have to see before governments realize they need to better regulate social media?

        It is usually the older people or people who don’t want to get involved that think like this maybe? My grandpa is well informed on the news and politics, but my parents have their head in the sand. I enjoy talking to my grandpa.
