Fuck off. You literally have a national broadcaster and our tax money at your disposal. Not defending Facebook but this is pure misdirection and blame shifting by a government that doesn't give a shit but gets their feelings hurt when its citizens call them out for it. You're the one who fucked us over and the fact that so many Canadians relied on Facebook of all places to learn whether they might burn to death tomorrow is a total disgrace on your part.

Honestly, fuck both the government for being complacent for too long and letting Facebook get into this position at the expense of the media, and Facebook for being a privacy hellhole siphoning everything it can.

And double fuck the gaslighting bullshit when the REASON Facebook and others dropped actual news is because the government told them they'd have to pay for linking news articles.
