World Press Freedom Day serves as a reminder that censorship continues to plague our society. Just last week, Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau introduced a massive Internet censorship bill, C-11, and announced ethics guidelines for Canadian newsrooms.
Tonight on the Ezra Levant Show, Ezra reveals exclusive documents obtained by Rebel News that show senior executives of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC), including its president, Catherine Tait, engaged in an ongoing campaign to pressure Twitter into censoring people and content that the CBC disapproved of.
The targets of this censorship campaign align with those that Trudeau has publicly criticized.
The documents reveal Tait making veiled threats against Twitter, insinuating that if the platform doesn’t ban the people the CBC wants silenced, the CBC might stop advertising on Twitter.
