Who do you support these days?

Daily newspaper delivery is a thing of the past but today we have a lot of options that are actually cheaper than what we used to pay to get a wet newspaper on the doorstep.

I support Rebel News and I support the Western Standard.

I had my doubts about Juno News but they are really doing a good job, so I recommend you take a look and support them.

Please add other media worthy of support in the comments.

I don't know what happens to money from this Locals because sometime back the government interfered and required filling in impossible forms. The cash stopped coming in.

Obviously somebody has it, but I don't and I never heard any more about it. I'll take a look at it again and maybe we'll have some money there to donate to such worthy causes.
In the meantime, as individuals we can work to make sure that those who report complete and honest news are supported.

Well we're talking about such matters, Has this locals outlived its usefulness.? There are only a few of us contributing and I'm not sure how many are reading but every so often I hear that people are also subscribing to grammawillows.

I've never been there and probably never will be but are we duplicating efforts? If so maybe it's time to shut this Locals down.

Why pay to subscribe to two Locals if one is doing the job?

Here's a response in a letter from Patty Johnstone in Ontario ..
I think she is a little ticked off! She also tells it like it is!
"Hey Jeff, let's get a few things straight!!
1. As a career politician, you have been on the public dole (tit) for FIFTY YEARS.
2. I have been paying CPP & OAS for 48 YEARS (since I was 15 years old. I am now 63). Being a Canadian citizen for over 20 years & paying my taxes, I am eligible at 65 to apply for Old Age Security - OAS (paid for through my taxes).
3. My Canada Pension payments, and those of millions of other Canadians, were safely tucked away in an interest bearing account for decades until you political pukes decided to raid...
