Another legacy of Stephen Harper. Perhaps you recall him saying “I will change Canada in such a way you will not recognize it!”
He ushered in Bell Media which was his greatest success. Since that time Bell Media has taken over most of the IP providers in Canada plus moved onto the print providers like Post Media.
The US Republicans have taken control of our news media, again, thanks to Stephen Harper. They can edit, prohibit or promote at their own will.
