Why is Canada so fake?

 Allan:

I am going to take a wild guess but I will put money on this question being written by an American whose extensive travel experience in Canada has been through Disney and Bugs Bunny cartoons.

What country is it whose president proclaimed the U.S. to be the “bright, shining city on the hill.” 

The truth is that Neon City is a shallow front. 

Behind that front is a second-rate country. 

Check the facts.

The U.S. cannot care for it’s people:

- lowest life expectancy of the developed countries, seven years less than Canada,

- highest infant/maternal mortality rate of the developed countries,

- and higher per capita SARS-COVID mortality rate than Canada.

- cannot educate its people — U.S. education ranked 22nd in the world, Canada sixth.

- cannot protect its people — 647 mass casualty events in 2022; Canada — zero.

- Canada is ranked sixth for freedom, the land of the free is not even in the top 20.

- There’s lots more but let’s leave it at that and ask why the U.S. is so fake because Canada is genuine, unlike the self-proclaimed greatest country on Earth.

All the news, even if it doesn't fit!

Here in the Great White North you can generally count on the news that you get in the media as being factual and not too far to the Left or Right......, BUT NOT IN THE UNITED STATES ANYMORE!

Months after the inauguration of President Joe Biden, One America News Network, a right-wing cable news channel available in some 35 million households, has continued to broadcast segments questioning the validity of the 2020 presidential election.

That segment was one in a spate of similar reports from a channel that has become a kind of Trump TV for the post-Trump age, an outlet whose reporting has aligned with the former president’s grievances at a time when he is barred from major social media platforms.

To go by much of OAN’s reporting, it is almost as if a transfer of power had never taken place. The channel did not broadcast live coverage of Biden’s swearing-in ceremony and inaugural address. 

Into April, news articles on the OAN website consistently referred to Donald Trump as “President Trump” and to Biden as just “Joe Biden” or “Biden.” That practice is not followed by other news organizations, including the OAN competitor Newsmax and Fox News, a conservative cable channel and news site.

“There are still serious doubts about who’s actually president,” OAN correspondent Pearson Sharp said in a March 28 report.

That segment was one in a spate of similar reports from a channel that has become a kind of Trump TV for the post-Trump age, an outlet whose reporting has aligned with the former president’s grievances at a time when he is barred from major social media platforms.

Some of OAN’s coverage has not had the full support of the staff. In interviews with 18 current and former OAN newsroom employees, 16 said the channel had broadcast reports that they considered misleading, inaccurate or untrue.

OAN has also promoted the debunked theory that the rioters who stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6 were left-wing agitators. Toward the end of a March 4 news segment that described the attack as the work of “Antifa” and “anti-Trump extremists” — and referred to the president as “Beijing Biden” — Sharp said, “History will show it was the Democrats, and not the Republicans, who called for this violence.” (Investigations have found no evidence that people who identify with Antifa, a loose collective of anti-fascist activists, were involved in the Capitol riot.)
