You're right, his base won't call him out. But we've got some of the best journalists in the world here in Canada and I guarantee you every one of them will hold his feet to the fire on that topic.

I hope you're right! I have very little confidence in mainstream news media these day to do anything besides serve the interests of corporations and the wealthy. Recent examples: (coverage of) Colonialist genocide in Palestine, carbon 'tax', recent capital gains tax. This issue is compounded by how few Canadians read non-mainstream news. I know you do, but I think we're clearly outliers since we're on Lemmy

You should read independent sources then. The Winnipeg Free Press, the Breach, CanadaLand, etc etc are all good.

Here's a link to a listing of Canadian independent news sources.

There isn't one media source in the world that will be 100% perfect.

Read the ones you want to and leave the rest unread.
