Western Standard - CORY MORGAN： CBC-funded hit pieces against Canadians are unforgivable

00:00:00.000 I'm going to start out though with just talking about a stunt from the you know they got exposed

00:00:12.080 recently with our state broadcaster they hit a new low they're no longer content just to create

00:00:17.380 subpar entertainment content based on woke pretexts and they're satisfied with a grossly

00:00:23.380 biased news division with a cratering viewership numbers they're now funding productions with the

00:00:29.240 of undercutting any remnants of national pride. Frances Widowson exposed and blew up the production 0.98

00:00:34.920 of a tax-funded prank show, they called it, when she turned the camera back at them and the 0.53

00:00:39.880 extent of this vile and insulting initiative is now coming to light.

00:00:44.200 Former Mount Royal University professor Widowson has been a long-time critic of the false narrative

00:00:49.480 of 215 children having been killed and secretly buried in an apple orchard at the Kamloops

00:00:54.680 residential school site and his evidence is mounted that the child burial story is a hoax rather than

00:00:59.640 investigating the issue to confirm whether or not murdered children are indeed buried in cantaloupe

00:01:04.280 activists have been trying to shut down story you know voices questioning the story so the cbc

00:01:09.320 jumped into the mix and funded a production to target widowson and thankfully it backfired

00:01:14.840 widowson was lured to a vancouver studio by a fake production company called forge media

00:01:19.320 fake websites were created along with fake identities and a fake initiative called

00:01:23.000 heritage figures canada which was allegedly a docu-series in canadian history

00:01:27.880 a person coaxing a person who was coaxed into taking part in that production can't really be

00:01:32.600 faulted for not realizing it was an attack interview when such pains were made to disguise

00:01:36.920 the production as being legitimate so this interview began benignly enough with questions

00:01:41.160 and answers with an actor i guess portraying sir john a mcdonald when suddenly a couple of

00:01:45.400 activists burst into the studio dumped shoes on a table in front of widowson and silently started 0.81

00:01:51.000 glaring at her. To her credit, rather than continuing with the charade or simply walking

00:01:55.380 out, she pulled out her phone and began questioning the host. The actors quickly fled the scene and

00:02:00.200 the production was taken down around them while the host sheepishly endured an interrogation from

00:02:05.780 Whittowson. Clearly they weren't prepared to have the camera turned back upon themselves.

00:02:09.700 Whittowson posted her video on X and it quickly became viral. Then we began learning of other

00:02:13.260 ambushes this group either attempted to carry out or succeeded in carrying out. Lindsay Shepard,

00:02:19.280 She had published a children's book on Sir John A. MacDonald.

00:02:22.420 She was targeted and endured fake interviews she later discovered were created to demonize Canada's founder along with Shepard herself.

00:02:29.580 The production company even created a prototype collectible to make their hoax appear genuine.

00:02:34.480 Shepard has not only come out as a victim of this group now, but she's exposed another.

00:02:39.220 RCMP veterans were lured to a Vancouver studio for what they were told would be a ceremony to honour their service.

00:02:45.620 Their phones were confiscated before the show began, presumably to avoid another episode like

00:02:49.580 widowsons. They were then subjected to humiliation on stage in front of a staged audience, berating

00:02:55.120 them for their alleged role of the RCMP in residential schools. It's been found that

00:03:02.140 this CBC-funded show approached author Jeremy Amarnick, BCMLA Dallas Brody, and conservative

00:03:08.240 commentator, member of parliament Aaron Gunn. Other names are probably going to surface as this

00:03:12.420 scandal spreads. An investigation of this production has to be held. How many tax dollars

00:03:17.000 went into this hoax? Dozens of people were involved, and just creating the backstory must

00:03:23.320 have cost a fortune, not to mention setting up fake studios and flying victims across the country

00:03:27.540 to participate. This entire affair is repugnant. Public figures were subjected to ridicule and

00:03:33.220 humiliation on the taxpayer's dime. The agenda of the production wasn't entertainment or parody,

00:03:37.640 though they may have claimed it was such. Apologists have compared the production to

00:03:41.380 Borat, where Sacha Baron Cohen ambushed guests, but it's nothing like that. Cohen's agenda wasn't

00:03:46.340 entertainment rather than political, and his work was actually funny. There's nothing funny about

00:03:50.480 what this forged media group did. Most importantly, Cohen's work wasn't tax-funded. The state

00:03:56.080 broadcaster has an ostensible mandate to promote Canadian pride and unity. It's managing neither,

00:04:02.660 as it funds productions that attack prominent Canadians and perpetuate the narrative that

00:04:06.280 Canada is a genocidal nation that must be ashamed of itself. Their targets are icons of

00:04:11.260 Canadian pride such as the RCMP and the country's founder Sir John A. Macdonald. Critical commentary

00:04:16.560 is certainly fair and has been applied liberal to the RCMP and past political figures. This ongoing

00:04:22.280 campaign to villainize them though is abhorrent. The CBC has announced it's tapped the brakes on

00:04:26.900 the forged media production now but that's too little too late. Independence movements are

00:04:31.260 blossoming across this country and can anybody really be shocked when the CBC gets 1.5 billion

00:04:35.660 a year to attack the history, pride, and foundation of the nation. The best time to defund the CBC

00:04:41.420 was decades ago. The next best time is right now.
