When Candice Malcolm first started True North way back in 2016, she did so because she knew Canadians needed to be better informed about issues.
She knew that the legacy media was failing at their jobs, and that Canadians deserved to hear the other side of the story.
At first, politicians and the legacy media ignored us.
After all, we were just a website.
Then we started growing. Canadians realized that True North, more than any other outlet in the country, was willing to tell them the truth.
And suddenly we had thousands of followers. Then tens of thousands. Now, hundreds of thousands. And millions of visitors to our website every year.
At that point, we couldn’t be ignored any longer.
So the legacy media started fighting us. Trying to slander our name.
And the politicians started fighting us, too. The Trudeau government even tried to prevent us from covering the 2019 election! But we took him to court – and won.
They’re still fighting us today.
Over the last week, True North has come under attack from all sides.
First, Spotify removed a podcast of ours for daring to talk about residential schools.
The Trudeau Liberals are trying to turn questioning the mass graves narrative into a crime by outlawing what they call "residential school denialism". And big tech platforms like Spotify are more than happy to censor objective journalism – before it even becomes law.
Then, the government-funded website ‘Canadian Dimension’ slandered us by referring to us as “far-right”. They also suggested – with absolutely no proof at all – that we are tied to some sort of Russian disinformation operation. This is an outright fabrication that has zero basis in reality.
Then, NDP MP Lindsay Mathyssen said – at a National Defence Committee meeting! – that she wants to "defeat" True North, while repeating the lie that we are somehow connected to Russia.
And then, late last week, the Toronto Star slandered us again by casually referring to True North as “far-right”. And yes, before you ask, the Toronto Star does receive tens of millions of dollars from the federal government.
Mister, this is what we’re up against.
It’s not just a few politicians, or the CBC.
It’s the entirety of the lefty politicos and the legacy media complex, working together to try to take us down.
To try to prevent YOU from getting fair, balanced, NON-government funded news.
And it’s disgusting.
We will not stop fighting, but we need your help.
When the above-mentioned “news” outlets need money, they just hold out their hand and the Trudeau government showers them with millions.
We will never do that.
How can a media outlet be fair and neutral if they’re beneficiaries of government handouts? We don’t think they can.
I posted this here on May 7 and thought it was done "Went to public library to do my census and consistent with the luck I have got the long form. About 70 WOKE questions and questions that are none of their business IMHO as they don't care about real Canadians. I just filled out the number of residents as it is starred and then just kept hitting next until the end. Had a 15 minute timer and it took me 15 minutes. Could leave comments but by then out of time and patience. 🤮"
Imagine my surprise when a census worker showed up at my door yesterday because I hadn't done. She knew I had the long form and had it with her for us to complete and I told her when and where I filled out, even approximate time of day, and she asked for confirmation code so went to work trying to find. When you are rushed naturally can't find so said that I couldn't find. Found as soon as she got back to her car and showed her before she drove off. I can't hate this country enough as I know that because I only ...
