kbal ( @kbal@fedia.io ) 41•20 days agoCanada Proud appears to be Poilievre’s brand name for spreading lies he can’t get away with repeating himself.
wise_pancake ( @wise_pancake@lemmy.ca ) 34•20 days agoNoah Alter, a spokesperson for Canada Proud, defends the Carney-Epstein ads, insisting the group never accused the prime minister of participating in Epstein’s crimes, but is instead simply asking questions.
Oh, just asking questions, they should prove themselves the negative of our proof less accusations!
Come on, this still qualifies as defamation in Canada, they should get sued for it.
YurkshireLad ( @YurkshireLad@lemmy.ca ) 8•20 days agoMaybe someone should do the same for PP. You know, just ask questions.
Yoga ( @Yoga@lemmy.ca ) English10•20 days agoPP actually has a clean history because he was grown in a conservative party test tube
YurkshireLad ( @YurkshireLad@lemmy.ca ) 5•20 days agoHaha I love this comment!
FreeBooteR69 ( @FreeBooteR69@lemmy.ca ) English7•20 days agoYeah like why no security clearance PP? Afraid his ties to Putin will be exposed i’ll wager.
grey_maniac ( @grey_maniac@lemmy.ca ) 1•19 days agoMaybe PP is the one with ties to Epstein. Maybe that’s why he’s afraid to get clearance.
lost_faith ( @lost_faith@lemmy.ca ) 3•19 days agoWe are just asking questions - Tucker face
corsicanguppy ( @corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca ) English2•19 days agosimply asking questions.
“Sea Lioning”
HikingVet ( @HikingVet@lemmy.ca ) 27•20 days agoCompletely unsurprising. Someone should check if “Canada Proud” has a pedophile problem.
peregrin5 ( @peregrin5@lemm.ee ) English24•20 days agoTake it from an American. Don’t ignore this as silly. This will convince an alarming number of
idiotspeople.They just keep repeating lies until people believe them and it works.
AlolanVulpix ( @AlolanVulpix@lemmy.ca ) English19•20 days agoNow is the time to be getting information from Canadian Owned and Operated media.
There will be disinformation campaigns unlike any other election.
qprimed ( @qprimed@lemmy.ml ) English7•20 days agousa occupant here. for the love of everything good, please push back on any disinformation like your lives depend on it.
talk to neighbors, carry leaflets with you to bolster valid, verifiable facts - and hand them liberally to anyone misinformed. this is now a matter of national security for canada.
an informed electorate makes informed choices - whatever those choices may be, at least make them from a place of concensus truth. the us has not done this for a long while now.
wise_pancake ( @wise_pancake@lemmy.ca ) 18•20 days agoAren’t those photos all fake?

Phoenixz ( @phoenixz@lemmy.ca ) 10•19 days agoWhy are ads like these allowed? This is disgusting to allow as an ad.
naRADa ( @radding@lemmy.ca ) English3•19 days agoMeta and Twitter. They allowed similar stuff in the past for our and the US elections. 🤷🏽♂️
Phoenixz ( @phoenixz@lemmy.ca ) 2•16 days agoNah, I’ve seen these shit ads on TV multiple times already in nars in between other normal commercials.
This shit should be prohibited
Dearche ( @Dearche@lemmy.ca ) 6•19 days agoIt’s insane that these guys don’t get fined into oblivion for such blatant lies. This is far different from regular people saying stupid stuff, but instead an organized effort that paid to have such a message heard.
Megaman_EXE ( @Megaman_EXE@beehaw.org ) 4•19 days agoI would rather have a more progressive option. But if it’s liberals or cons, I’m going to go with the less evil of the two. I really hope we don’t end up like America. I hope we can maintain our freedoms. Otherwise, I see no other options than to flee somewhere safer, but I doubt that’s practical or even possible.
