How can I help fight this crap?

Defend CBC to your family and friends and coworkers if you can. We're probably not really the target audience for misinformation, but they might be,. Their votes count and they can spread that misinformation too

Honestly I've never actually needed to defend them to anyone in person.

This. I used to kinda get why people hate on CBC. But now? It's needed more than ever.

Use an adblocker and avoid social media. Use only official sources of information (i.e. party's official website, elections canada, etc.).

Avoid news that's either American owned, heavily bias (left or right), or seems influenced to post clickbait.

Contact elections Canada about placing safeguards!
