Hi, I'm Candace Malcolm and this is The Candace Malcolm Show. We have a great episode for
00:00:07.200
you today. We are coming off the election and let me just tell you folks, the numbers
00:00:11.240
here at Juno News are spectacular. I want to share a few of them with you because I'm
00:00:15.080
really excited and really proud of what we have built together. I say together because
00:00:18.660
we would not be here without the audience, without viewers like you, without the people
00:00:22.260
who are subscribers to Juno News that pay us $10 a month for all of our news. You're
00:00:26.720
the ones that have propelled this and kept this going. So during the election, during
00:00:30.060
the shortest election that you could possibly have, only five weeks, we published 413 exclusive
00:00:35.880
news stories at Juno News. We had 10 million plus page views across social media, so just
00:00:41.900
X and YouTube. Our videos were viewed 14.2 million times. Our newsletter, which we send out every
00:00:49.040
day, was opened 9.1 million times. It was viewed 9.1 million times. And our premium subscribers
00:00:55.840
grew by 30%, folks. So we are so excited to be part of the movement of independent press
00:01:02.460
and independent journalism in Canada. We are on a mission to replace the CBC and I think
00:01:07.680
we're going to get there. I'm going to ask you just take a quick second and like this
00:01:11.340
video. It really helps us with the YouTube algorithm. But it's not all good news because
00:01:16.400
as I'm going to report today, Canada has fallen in terms of world press freedom. So you know
00:01:22.280
this and I know this, that Canada is not as free as we used to be. We don't have free speech like
00:01:27.860
we used to. And now it's verified, not by a conservative group. This isn't just a right-wing
00:01:31.440
talking point. This is a factual statement based on the World Press Freedom Index. So to talk about
00:01:38.100
this a little more, very pleased to be joined by my friend, Sheila Gunn-Reed. Sheila is a journalist
00:01:42.380
at Rebel News, Rebel Media, and she's the president of the Independent Press Gallery of Canada.
00:01:47.460
Sheila, welcome to the program.
00:01:48.660
Candice, thanks for having me on the show.
00:01:51.400
Okay, well, I saw this on X and it was really disappointing, but not surprising. So can you walk
00:01:56.660
us through this Reporters Without Borders World Press Freedom Index?
00:02:01.160
Sure. Yeah, the Reporters Without Borders, they put out an analysis of press freedom every single
00:02:06.780
year. And it tracks government overreach, arrests of journalists, violence against journalists,
00:02:14.840
and government censorship. And Canada now ranks 21st in the world with a score of 78.75. Now,
00:02:24.300
the reason this is significant is that this is a huge drop from just 2024. In 2024, Canada was at 14th
00:02:34.520
place. And overall, now this is what I think is really significant, is that, you know, how people
00:02:39.580
used to talk about how mean Prime Minister Stephen Harper was to journalists. But journalists had a
00:02:44.000
really good under Prime Minister Stephen Harper because we've dropped 13 places since 2015 when
00:02:51.900
the Liberals took power. And that is post the Liberals dumping a pile of money on the mainstream
00:02:57.720
media, bailout after bailout. This is post the government overreach into journalism. So we have
00:03:04.420
to remember Bill C-11 that handed basic control of the internet over to the CRTC. So that's the
00:03:12.740
broadcasting bureaucracy. This is post C-18. C-18, as you know, forced tech companies to bankroll
00:03:20.060
failing legacy media outlets. And that prompted Meta to block Canadian news outright, right, where a lot
00:03:26.720
of people consumed their news, but also where a lot of independent journalists were seeing their reach
00:03:33.640
grow. And then now we've got Carney threatening to clean up online pollution, he says, is flowing our
00:03:40.000
way from the Americans, which, of course, is a euphemism for purging any sort of dissenting voices.
00:03:45.560
So this is troubling. And this tracks with exactly the time the Liberals took power.
00:03:50.860
Wow, I mean, it is scary. And just for that context, right, like even us at True North,
00:03:55.920
they built a company called True North. And we had a huge audience on Facebook. That was our number one
00:04:01.120
audience in terms of social media. Without warning, they just completely shut it off. We had to migrate
00:04:06.900
over to YouTube. And thankfully, we've been able to build up a large audience on YouTube now. But it
00:04:12.000
took a while, it took a few years of catching up. And, you know, again, thankfully, we have an email
00:04:17.620
list as well. But if you don't, I mean, it's so easy to get cut off from your viewers. And that's the
00:04:22.060
scary thing, right? Like when you have a government as tyrannical and opposed to basic freedoms, as we see
00:04:28.380
with the Liberals, you never know what they're going to cut off next, never know what they're
00:04:31.540
going to do next. I want to read what Mark Carney has to say on Press Freedom Day. So it was on
00:04:36.080
Saturday. And he writes this on X. He says, a strong, independent and free press both defines
00:04:41.220
and defends our values as Canadians. Now more than ever, we need to protect our public forums and
00:04:46.400
defend strong and reliable Canadian voices. So there's so much you can read into that. Sheila,
00:04:51.360
first of all, as we all know, Mark Carney banned independent reporters from any of his events through
00:04:56.840
the campaign starting in Edmonton with his campaign launch. He even had the police get involved to do
00:05:02.220
everything they could to stop independent reporters from asking questions. The only time throughout the
00:05:06.480
entire campaign that independent journalists got to ask questions was at that leaders debate because
00:05:12.060
we had a court order saying that we're journalists and they had to let us in. And now he says, now more
00:05:16.400
than ever, we need to protect our public forums and defend strong, reliable Canadian voices. So all I read
00:05:22.700
from that is he wants more power to shut down his adversarial voices and defend, meaning publicly fund
00:05:31.480
journalism, which is pretty much exactly how we got into this mess. I also want to play from Mark
00:05:38.120
Carney. This was a resurface clip. This came up during the election campaign, April 10th, 2025. And this is a
00:05:44.400
clip of Mark Carney basically saying the threat is from social media platforms. He says that they've become a
00:05:51.960
sea of racism, misogyny, anti-semitism, Islamophobia, and hate. And he says, my government will act. Let's play
00:05:58.020
that clip. Large American online platforms have become seas of racism, misogyny, anti-semitism,
00:06:05.140
Islamophobia, and hate in all its forms. And they're being used by criminals to harm our children.
00:06:12.880
My government will act. So that's terrifying. What do you think of that?
00:06:20.640
Well, I mean, he says large American platforms, but we know who he means. We know that he means X,
00:06:25.980
which is the one place where people can still freely speak their mind. And it's where a lot of
00:06:30.560
journalists are. So he's going to make sure that the journalists see exactly what he wants them to
00:06:36.820
see. But I also think it's interesting, his focus, right? We know that WeChat meddled in at least the
00:06:45.020
last two elections. And according to the site task force, this latest one, they were using it to target
00:06:50.800
conservative candidates. And yet, nary a word about WeChat ever. If you are looking for a social media
00:07:00.640
platform that is meddling in our democracies, targeting democracy voices, targeting Canadians,
00:07:08.560
you would crack down on WeChat. But it's very clear that Mark Carney is insistent on coming down on X.
00:07:15.900
And I'm worried about what that means. Because will that mean X is just going to say Canada is just
00:07:22.880
not worth the hassle and not allow access to Canadians? I wonder. We saw what Meta did. Meta said,
00:07:29.680
I'm not going to pay the shakedown. And so now Canadians are not allowed to post news links there.
00:07:35.600
So I wonder what this means for us. But this is, I think, hinting at a renewed Online Harms Act.
00:07:42.640
Well, it's interesting that they, you know, they talk, what we think about as free speech,
00:07:46.420
what we think about as independent journalism, they think is like a threat to the democracy or like
00:07:50.840
hate speech. And so they're literally, like, I can't imagine Canada, Canadian political discourse
00:07:55.840
without Twitter or X. Like, I actually can't imagine so much of the conversation, so much of the
00:08:00.760
dialogue, so much news is broken there. And it's almost like a collaborative form, right? Like,
00:08:04.960
I scroll through X every morning to figure out what to talk about my show. I see, you know,
00:08:09.440
tweets from you or tweets from other people in the space. And that's kind of how I get up to speed
00:08:14.240
and what, you know, what I want to dig into, what I want to research, what I want to talk about on my
00:08:17.960
show. And the idea that that could just go dark because Mark Carney decides that, you know,
00:08:22.600
it's bad for us is truly, truly terrifying.
00:08:26.400
Well, and again, look at Mark, what Mark Carney's focusing on. Did he say that it was a direct
00:08:31.760
attack on democracy, that the debates cancelled the media scrums? Actually, he never said really
00:08:38.420
anything about that. He never said, you know, that he never had a problem with journalists having to
00:08:45.620
fight the government to get into the debates. He, there's no possible way he is completely unaware
00:08:52.000
that his campaign kept calling the police on journalists over and over and over again. And
00:08:58.700
this isn't just targeting right-wing journalists or conservative journalists. We saw Kareem Assad,
00:09:04.560
who I don't really know where she falls down on the political spectrum. And I kind of like it that
00:09:08.340
way. She was basically persona non grata at Carney campaign events. And I don't think that's going to
00:09:14.740
change. We haven't really seen him be open and accessible to independent journalists. They've had
00:09:22.480
to shout their questions the way Chris Dacey has from the street or Alexa Lavoie last week from the
00:09:28.200
street. I can't imagine that things are going to change for the better.
00:09:32.440
Well, and there's, it's so tightly controlled, like folks might not understand this. Even
00:09:36.940
for the election night, right? We tried to send Sue Ann Levy. Sue Ann is a professional journalist,
00:09:42.300
a retired reporter for the Toronto Sun. I believe she wrote for the paper for some 30
00:09:46.760
plus years, right? She is by every definition, a mainstream media journalist. Now she works for True
00:09:53.920
North and they wouldn't let her in. They wouldn't let her in. And it really is like, if you're not part
00:10:00.600
of the government funded journalist click, like if you're not part of either the CBC or one of the
00:10:07.960
other outlets that takes money from the government, they literally just won't let you in the building.
00:10:12.680
I mean, it's, it's honestly, it's, it's, it's almost like a communist system, right? They say it's free
00:10:18.600
speech and, and premium of the press, but really it's controlled press because they only let people
00:10:23.720
that they've previously given money to or screened or decided that they're part of the Canadian
00:10:29.820
journalism establishment. They won't let anybody else in. And so it, it skews everything about
00:10:35.260
Canadian politics. Like the entire election campaign, the narrative was set by the reporters
00:10:39.800
in the room who were asking questions day in and day out. And you exclude half the country by
00:10:44.500
excluding independent press and all of the people who get their news from us. And you're not really
00:10:49.320
fighting a fair, fair battle because they're fighting the issues, both conservatives and liberals
00:10:53.380
are fighting an election based on the left-wing issues. The issues that the left-wing media decide
00:10:58.020
are the issues. And they're not talking about the issues that we care about and the things that
00:11:01.740
we want to know about, the things that we're uncovering and digging up. And so it's just
00:11:05.540
fundamentally unfair. And it's, it's, it's funny that they don't even recognize that.
00:11:09.800
Well, I think they, I think they do because I think they know they lose on the issues that normal
00:11:15.140
people care about. Crime, housing, immigration, cost of living, inflation. They know that if they are
00:11:24.400
forced to campaign or argue or defend the liberal positions on those issues, they lose every single
00:11:29.560
time. So what, how do you avoid talking about that? Well, you just make sure that the people who are
00:11:35.520
going to ask those sorts of questions are no longer in the room. And I think we're also missing a really
00:11:40.540
important part of this. And that is that the mainstream media, the taxpayer funded government
00:11:47.160
money contaminated journalists are the enforcers in all of this because the government knows they
00:11:52.840
can't enforce this directly a lot of times because that will result in a charter challenge. But you
00:11:59.200
know who can enforce the exclusivity and the boring questions asked by the mainstream media? Well,
00:12:04.280
that's the parliamentary press gallery. So they, this is this little cabal of journalists who get
00:12:09.700
together and say, we need exclusive access to these politicians. And so we can't let our competitors
00:12:17.080
come in here and expose us for not doing the job that we're paid to do on behalf of Canadians. So they keep
00:12:23.080
journalists like those at Rebel News out of the parliamentary press gallery. We don't get to ask the
00:12:28.380
politicians questions. And the media continues to get worse and worse and worse. It's like watching it slowly
00:12:34.980
circle the drain of a toilet bowl, because it's just they keep doing things that reinforce just how bad they
00:12:41.420
are. And the government keeps giving the money correcting them from getting the, I guess, the market
00:12:48.280
correction they so rightly deserve. So I mean, you have to remember, there's, it's not just the government,
00:12:53.800
there's this cabal of journalists that are acting as enforcers on behalf of the government.
00:12:59.360
Well, it's so the most obvious, the time that this is the most obvious, I think, is watching the CBC. I
00:13:04.500
don't take any joy in watching the CBC. But when clips circulate, I pay attention. And I want to
00:13:09.560
point to this interview that was done with Andrew Scheer, Conservative MP, and CBC's Power and Politics
00:13:14.660
host, David Cochran. This happened late last week, where they're talking about monetary policy, right?
00:13:20.760
And sure, there's two schools of thoughts when it comes to monetary policy. There's sort of like the
00:13:24.920
Keynesian liberal idea. And then there's more like the free market conservative ideals, right? So Andrew
00:13:30.140
Scheer is talking about it from a conservative perspective. And David Cochran is
00:13:33.960
fact checking him with false information. Okay, so this is a bit of a longer clip. It's about a minute
00:13:39.020
long. I'm going to play it. And then I'm going to take a second to just reinforce again why David Cochran
00:13:44.060
is just promoting liberal ideas. He's lying about what's happened. And he's pretending that he's the
00:13:50.320
arbiter of truth. And he's trying to fact check a conservative MP. It's really unbelievable. Let's play that clip.
00:13:54.700
I'm incredibly optimistic about our ability to build off of our gains this time. And I'm optimistic that
00:14:01.100
we'll be able to finish the job in the next slide. Right. But you're part of me not be able to rely
00:14:04.560
on post-COVID inflation crisis that was fueled by, you know, war in the breadbasket of Europe.
00:14:11.200
David, you know this. You know that inflation is caused when governments print money.
00:14:16.160
Well, okay. That's what the liberals did. The liberals flooded the economy with brand new cash.
00:14:20.160
They spent money. They didn't print money. The Bank of Canada did not increase the number of bank
00:14:24.700
notes in circulation in the economy. They used settlement balances. They used settlement balances to buy
00:14:29.720
government bonds to put liquidity. I'm not being dishonest. They created money out of thin air.
00:14:35.960
They massively expanded the money supply. You know this. They did not permanently increase the money
00:14:40.020
supply, Mr. Scheer. But anyway, I don't have an argument on monetary policy. They used settlement
00:14:43.200
balances to buy bonds to lower interest rates to put liquidity into the banking system. And then
00:14:47.360
they removed those settlement balances over time. So are you denying that there are that there is more
00:14:51.980
currency, whether it's digital or real, in the Canadian economy today? Are you denying? I'm saying
00:14:56.200
they use settlement balances and you're calling it money. There may be a small marginal increase,
00:15:00.640
but you know, it was, it is not the, anyway, everybody had, all right. Yeah. Okay. So that
00:15:06.200
sounded like a debate between a liberal MP and a conservative MP over monetary policy, but it
00:15:10.860
wasn't. CBC is actively out there pushing the liberal line. Okay. And it's a distinction without
00:15:15.120
a difference. Anyway, he's saying, oh, it was these settlements. So basically the idea is, yes,
00:15:19.660
the government of Canada pushed a whole bunch of money out, but they have a plan to retreat it and pull
00:15:23.840
it out eventually. So it's not the same as printing money, even though it has the same effect as
00:15:28.800
printing money. And that is exactly what has caused inflation. That is what we can all agree on. And
00:15:32.780
it was just so, to me, it was just so icky to see David Cochran just like really, you know, putting
00:15:38.260
his, digging his feet in. And I swear he has liberal talking points in front of him. He is repeating
00:15:43.460
the lines that Mark Carney and Mark Carney's staff and office gave him to read. So it's like, you know,
00:15:49.220
what's the point of even having liberal MPs? Why don't we just have CBC journalists
00:15:52.560
debate conservatives on the issues? The idea that the CBC is any kind of a, you know,
00:15:58.860
a neutral platform or the people who get to fact check anyone else, they have absolutely no business
00:16:04.000
fact checking because they don't have the facts on their side in the first place. What did you think
00:16:08.020
of that? You know, it's as much as I regret having to see Andrew Scheer go through that, it's nice to
00:16:15.640
see that we are not the only people that David Cochran lies about. As you know, David Cochran went on
00:16:22.400
national TV and said that Rebel News accreditation had been revoked from the post-debate scrums. That
00:16:28.240
was completely untrue. He maybe wasn't wise enough to keep his powder dry. I think that's what he had
00:16:35.720
hoped his conversations with the debates commission would turn into. But I mean, this is what $1.4 billion
00:16:41.700
and a promise to increase CBC funding by $150 million more buys you. It buys you a network that
00:16:52.660
acts as the communications arm of the Liberal Party of Canada. There was absolutely no bias there. And
00:16:58.260
you can, you can tell, you know, Andrew Scheer, or I'm sorry, there's absolutely no balance there. And
00:17:03.460
you could tell that Andrew Scheer, it's almost as though his audio was turned down so that they
00:17:08.300
weren't actually competing for the same set of years. It's so interesting. Yes. And our audience
00:17:15.060
will know David Cochran very well by this point, because we showed many, many clips of him during
00:17:19.320
the debates commissions, and just the absolute hysterical meltdown that he had. I have one more
00:17:23.280
clip of him not trying to pick on him. But well, I kind of am because he's so terrible. I am.
00:17:27.700
Yeah, he was speaking with Globe and Mail journalist Robert Fyfe. Robert Fyfe is supposed to be
00:17:32.140
like the grandfather of Canadian journalism. He's the one that gets all the scoops. And he's so stoic. And,
00:17:38.060
you know, a lot of people on the conservative side like him because he'll break stories. He's an equal
00:17:42.020
opportunist when it comes to breaking devastating stories about liberals and conservatives. But
00:17:45.980
here, he kind of like lets the mask slip a little bit. He's talking to David Cochran on the same show,
00:17:50.860
Power and Politics. I don't even want to repeat what he calls Pierre Polyev. I'll just, you can listen
00:17:55.580
to it for yourself. Let's play this clip. You have MPs that have told me that they found it really
00:18:02.060
difficult going door to door, because a lot of people were saying, we like some of the policies you're doing,
00:18:07.980
like, we think your leader's a dick. And we, really. And we think he is, you know, I'm sorry,
00:18:15.740
but that's what they're telling me. All right. I'm going to have some ombudsman's paperwork to fill
00:18:20.860
out before I go home tonight, I think. But yes, not in such language, but I have heard similar
00:18:26.220
sentiments expressed from conservative candidates. Right. So, okay. So just first of all,
00:18:32.300
the giddy laughing after, laughing hysterically, right? Again, how are we supposed to believe that
00:18:36.620
this is fair and balanced? This is the state broadcaster. This is why we have to pay $1.5
00:18:40.700
billion a year to get, first of all, foul language about the conservative leader. And let me just say
00:18:46.620
to Robert Fyfe, okay, that is not journalism. You're talking about a secondhand account. He spoke to MPs
00:18:52.060
who said that they were saying at the door that someone else said it. So someone else said it,
00:18:56.380
an MP heard it, an MP passed it along to Robert Fyfe. He doesn't, he doesn't speak in specific
00:19:00.860
enough terms for me to believe that that is a specific example, like saying, I have a specific
00:19:06.140
example. I have it on tape. No, he's just speaking broadly. They're basically just mocking Pierre
00:19:10.460
Pauli of making fun of him, saying what they all say about him behind closed doors. And it was so
00:19:14.940
shocking to, well, not so shocking, but so titillating to the CBC host and the other guests that they
00:19:19.580
couldn't control their laughter. They're laughing like squirrel girls about it. Sheila, could you imagine if,
00:19:25.180
I know this wouldn't happen. Imagine if you got invited on the CBC and you said something like that
00:19:29.260
about Mark Hardy. I have a feeling that David Cochran wouldn't be laughing like that. And I
00:19:33.580
have a feeling that you would not be invited back on the CBC if you did that about a liberal leader.
00:19:37.500
What do you think? I think you could hear a pin drop after I had said something like that. But
00:19:44.220
I'm from the prairies. We call what we just saw there a hen party. Usually involves middle-aged
00:19:49.420
women with too much time on their hands, but apparently that's what amounts to a CBC panel these days.
00:19:54.860
I wonder what that all cost us. Now, again, they're gossiping. This isn't news. This isn't
00:20:02.860
journalism. This is gossiping. And again, I am skeptical now of everything Bob Fyfe says. And that,
00:20:12.780
again, goes back to the debates. Because he went on TV and he said that independent journalists,
00:20:19.420
yours, mine, were in the debates scrum acting up and acting wild. Instead, we were the victims of
00:20:25.420
ongoing workplace harassment at the hands of the CBC and the other journalists in the room. But he
00:20:30.700
went on TV and completely lied, gossiped again, didn't know anything firsthand, just went on TV and
00:20:36.700
gossiped. So now I know that about Bob Fyfe. I'm skeptical that any conservative MP actually talked to
00:20:44.620
him about what they were hearing at the door, because he just peddles in gossip third hand.
00:20:49.420
Right. And if you are an MP watching this, and you're a conservative, don't trust legacy media.
00:20:54.380
What are you doing?
00:20:56.380
Like, just absolutely, hopefully the conservatives will finally take the cue and just stop talking
00:21:01.340
to the legacy media. I think Pierre Polyev did a pretty good job of this, of just saying like,
00:21:04.780
you know what, I don't need you. I'm going to go talk to other people. All right, Sheila, I can't let you
00:21:09.420
leave the show without just asking you very quickly about what's happening in Alberta.
00:21:14.300
Last week, Premier Danielle Smith made changes to the Citizens Initiative Act. And you hear a lot
00:21:19.980
of people online talking about referendum and independence for Alberta. So what's your take
00:21:25.260
on this whole thing? I think this is a long time coming. I've been around longer than I would like to
00:21:34.140
admit. And the separatist movement in Alberta, it sort of ebbs and flows, the tide comes in,
00:21:42.220
and then the tide recedes. I know one of the biggest wet blankets on a separatist movement
00:21:47.820
in Alberta was the election of Stephen Harper, actually all sort of went away. And then it was
00:21:53.100
rising when in the dying days of Rachel Notley's government, and then they got Jason Kenney, and it
00:21:58.380
all went away. And then it sort of came back when Jason Kenney wasn't exactly what everybody thought he
00:22:03.260
would be. And then Daniel Smith came and it went away again. But you've got a lot of people in this
00:22:10.300
province saying something has to change. There's a structural inequity that has gone back to the very
00:22:18.780
beginning, where in Alberta, we cannot vote blue any harder, with the exception of a couple of
00:22:24.220
historically left leaning ridings. Can't get any more conservative, and yet it gets us nowhere.
00:22:30.380
And they do feel culturally incompatible with the rest of the country. They do feel like they are
00:22:37.260
a distinct society out here. And I wouldn't say that they are wrong.
00:22:43.820
Daniel Smith, I think, has done the right thing. She fixed a piece of legislation that was doomed to
00:22:50.460
fail. It was a citizen-led initiatives act that you had to overcome an absolutely insurmountable barrier
00:22:59.020
within 90 days. She's rolled that back to 10% of the last election's number of people who voted,
00:23:08.380
which I think is about 170,000 as opposed to 600,000 before, and extended the time to collect signatures
00:23:14.860
from 90 days to 120. Now, I think this is fair. I think Alberta's future is whatever Albertans
00:23:22.300
should so choose it to be. And I think Daniel Smith, without conceding that she's a separatist,
00:23:28.060
and I don't think that she is, is, I think this gives people an opportunity to actually have their
00:23:34.460
voice heard. And when you see, it's like 30% of people are like, yeah, we'll go right now,
00:23:40.140
thank you very much, without any overtures from the Americans to match our assets, one for one.
00:23:45.420
Once you start talking like that, I think that number just keeps going up and up.
00:23:50.940
I think people write it off as fringe at their own peril.
00:23:55.180
Wow. I think, I think, I think you're right. I've known Premier Smith for a long time,
00:23:59.020
and she's never struck me as a separatist in any way. However, she is someone with a lot of integrity,
00:24:04.220
who really truly cares about Alberta, that will do whatever is best for Alberta, whatever it may be.
00:24:09.580
So that's the story that we are keeping an eye on very closely. All right, Sheila. Well,
00:24:14.460
thank you so much for your time and great to have you on the show. We'll have to have you on again
00:24:18.220

00:24:22.300
This is the Candace Malcolm Show. We'll be back again tomorrow with all the news. Thank you and God bless.
