Here are my Canadian media recommendations:
Keep in mind that CTV and CP24 are owned by Bell Media. The CEO Mirko Bibic is a long-time conservative donor who laid off hundreds of employees shortly affer receiving hundreds of millions in handouts from the federal government. That's to say, CTV/CP24 can have some wildly varying opinions and, like all journalism, must be read critically.
Under the CBC umbrella, my favorite "news" program is still "This Hour has 22 Minutes".
Having a good laugh while hearing about current events is very cathartic.
This Hour has 22 Minutes has been so funny lately! It was my gateway to CBC Gem.
Rick Mercer may have gotten all the Fame in the 90's, but Mark Critch is a very good comedian.
I also read Reuters.
Also Canadian owned.
I feel the spirit of Luigi when I hear these stories.
