At a moment when companies everywhere are shrinking newsrooms and some are replacing people with AI, The Tyee is doing the opposite.
We’re investing in real journalists — skilled, curious humans who live in the regions they report on and understand the communities they serve. ✍️ #CdnMedia

It looks like Global News’ continued misgendering of the #TumblerRidge shooter is an editorial choice at this point.
“Father of Tumbler Ridge school shooter issues statement: ‘I carry a sorrow’”
Make sure to share this far and wide. I'm not sure enough people know how hard these "think tanks", i.e. propaganda tools of neoliberal ideology, are working to undermine Canada.

I’m old enough to remember when bribing corrupt foreign government officials was a Criminal Code offense.

"The #NationalPost suggests more government advertising should go to Canadian #newspapers instead..."
LOL, so not the National Post, then? From Wikipedia:
"The National Post is...the flagship publication of the American-owned Postmedia Network."
I'd love to see all government advertising in independent media like @thetyee or @thenarwhal or Canada's National Observer.
Really, CBC?

British Columbia’s human rights commissioner plans to tell the provincial government it should rewrite its laws and rules to more clearly protect the right of journalists to report on police enforcement activities, The Tyee has learned.

RE: https://mstdn.ca/@thenarwhal/115893576152027066
I found this article largely disappointing for the Narwhal. It largely carries water for the fossil fuel companies on the issue of CCS and almost completely sidesteps the ‘U’ in CCUS, which is the real goal of the fossil fuel companies in rolling out this technology—they’re not inending to capture the CO2 for any altruistic, planet saving reasons; they want to inject the greenhouse gas into the ground to extract MORE oil from oilfields that have been depleted by conventional extraction means.
If you make it through to the last few paragraphs though, there is a nugget in there about the potential costs taxpayers will bear. According to the article, the Trudeau govt was in for half the cost of CCS plants, but the new MOU puts us on the hook for paying for even more of the projected $13B—likely lowballed—costs.
A trial beginning this week in B.C. Supreme Court could help clarify the rights of Canadians to protest, the ability of the media to cover those events, and the consequences for police when they violate reporters’ constitutional rights.
