Why are all of the news postings in here from government funded source, and no independent media?

Almost all news in Canada is funded by government grants. Journalism isn't that profitable, y'know.

You admit that every and all TV news show is bought and paid for to push government agenda and talking points. Well except for independant ones that are entirely donation funded like True North news which allows True North to be more transparent and more honest to to expose and criticize anyone's agenda, and TNC continues to get more donations, hire more people.

Although Rebel News does inflammatory and sensational presentations, there's a couple of reporters I believe will be an instant success once they leave Rebel News sensationalism.
