Most people are aware of the disinformation. What is most shocking is the disinformation and distortion created by the media including the CBC to advance ideology. Fortunately most can sort through and filter out the flotsam.

Just believe nothing that you read on social media would be a good start.

Two thirds of Canadians as a group lean left and yet about 80% of our corporate media lean right. Why is that?
James Dodd
Reply to @David Fletcher: Cause right wing parties hand them boat loads of tax payers money. It's really that simple. They perpetuate the fantasy of trickle down economics, which makes corporate media richer.
David Raymond Amos
Reply to @David Fletcher: Methinks that is a rhetorical question for the benefit of Canada's self-described "Natural Governing Party" N'esy Pas?

Because sadly, Canada is not the country with free, unbiassed and independent news media...

Fletcher: 66% of Canadians is about 20 Million peeps, 80% of the
corporate media (the ones making decisions) accounts for about 5
people...and your point is?
Reply to @David Fletcher: now that is disinformation

Fletcher: Where do you get figure? The majority of Canadians are in the
center only the media and downtown Toronto crowd are on the left
Ted Sedor
Reply to @James Dodd: how many BILLIONS did Trudeau hand out before the election
Ted Sedor
Reply to @James Dodd:
Aug. 11-18 — Liberal MPs and ministers made 595 spending commitments
worth a total of $4.9 billion. 330 spending commitments made from Aug.
19 to Aug. 25 total $2.85 billion. In the last two weeks ?
James Dodd
Reply to @Ted Sedor: I never said that the Liberals don't hand out money either. They are just as guilty of it.
Ted Sedor
Reply to @James Dodd:
In the entire month before former prime minister Stephen Harper called
the election on Aug. 2, 2015, Conservative ministers and MPs made 604
spending commitments worth a combined $1.4 billion.
James Dodd
Reply to @Ted Sedor:
I'm not sure what exactly you're trying to prove. Amount of spending
commitments doesn't prove anything. You may as well be shouting random
numbers. Context actually matters.
Ted Sedor
Reply to @James Dodd: Prior to the election being called the Prime Minister, Cabinet Ministers, and Parliamentary Secretaries criss-crossed the country making partisan announcements where they wove campaign narratives into official government speeches and news releases, Of equal, if not greater concern, is the fact that they invited non-elected Liberal Party of Canada candidates to attend these official, taxpayer-funded government announcements.”
James Dodd
Reply to @Ted Sedor: You realize every incumbent government does this before each election right?
I mean the provincial conservatives in Ontario literally held back funding for multiple things till last week to help boast their federal counterparts... this is not abnormal in any way.

Stop reading articles on this website is a good start.

Reply to @Verne Gerchin: Hell No Methinks many would agree that they are far too entertaining and help to make the circus N'esy Pas?

The people with the money/box are the true propagandists. Just excluding citizens is relatively important.
David Raymond Amos
Reply to @Don McTavish: True

Is it disinformation when leaders travel around the country for photo-op while never meeting the average citizen.

"Political disinformation is rampant online. How can voters cope?"
Easily. Research your position from credible news organizations like the CBC for example. Not Facebook or Youtube or rumours and slop talk from the guys down at the garage.

Reply to @Danny
Tanker: It is tough.....I find that if I go to multiple sources...and
compare what the left wing reporters are saying to what the right wing
reporters are saying....use critical thinking and reasonable
judgement.....you can connect the dots fairly accurately
Someone says Scheer is chocolate milk boy or Scheer is Harper....you can tell how valid it is...
Four senior Liberal MPs, two of them Cabinet Ministers, come out and throw their careers away to warn us about Justin....you can tell how valid it is
Someone changes their story every two days.....you can tell they are l yi n g
Just some common sense tips

All I read is poor evidence, hearsay mostly, to go to court with, improbable a prosecutor would take it on and waste the court's valuable time and a waste of an investigator's time.

That picture is obviously fake. Trudeau does not have his Mr. Dressup outfit on.

Anderson: Of all the things to compare someone to as an insult I've
never understood why people think Mr. Dressup is such a burn. Would you
be insulted is someone said you were like Mr. Rogers?
Brian Paradis
Reply to @James Dodd: I wouldn't vote for any of themLOL
James Dodd
Reply to @Brian
Paradis: I'd vote for Mr. Rogers given the opportunity to do so. By all
accounts the man was probably the closest thing to a truly selfless
person in recent history.
