Just A Reminder

 There do exist ways to alert the Canadian public about disasters:

What is Alert Ready?

Alert Ready is the public branding of the National Public Alerting System (NPAS) designed to deliver critical and potentially life-saving alerts to Canadians through television, radio and other media and on wireless devices.

How does Alert Ready work?

The Alert Ready system was developed by federal, provincial and territorial emergency management officials, broadcasters, and wireless service providers to ensure that you receive alerts immediately and know when to take action to keep yourself and your family safe.

The National Public Alerting System is a federal, provincial, and territorial system that enables emergency management organizations across Canada to warn the public about imminent or possible dangers such as floods, tornados, hazardous materials, fires, and other disasters. The system is also used for Amber Alerts and other urgent bulletins about child abductions when the child is thought to be in grave danger.

These potentially life-saving warnings, which are area-specific (geo-targeted), are known as emergency alerts. When an alert is issued, it is broadcast on television and radio and sent to mobile devices that are connected to an LTE (long-term evolution) network.

Making this

With wildfires leading to evacuations in Yellowknife and Kelowna Friday, Meta should reverse its “unacceptable” and “reckless” decision to block news content on its platforms in Canada, Liberal government ministers said.

 

 - not only grossly inaccurate and an outright lie, but a bit of emotional extortion designed to cover the anatomies of lazy, greedy, censorial mental lightweights who desperately need to walk back on every single bad decision that they've ever made.

Who runs to their social media accounts when running from danger, anyway? 

Is CBC officially the only news source now?

 

Why not just repeal Bills C-11 and 18 then?

I think we know why.
