“Sun News did not clearly demonstrate how its service would make an exceptional contribution to the objectives of the Act”, i.e. the Broadcasting Act that regulates all airwaves in Canada

Looked around down the line most of the stuff was south of the border. Missed ya, but my point is too often there’s a posting about a state which draws comments from those really not affected by deveopments from the region not affected that gives a false impression. And I know we get posters from up nort eh ?

It wouldn’t matter. This is the final proof that there is really no market for conservative media in Canada. Canadians are not in any way like Americans. While Americans distrust the mainstream media, Canadians trust it implicitly. Only a matter of time until Canada returns to its natural governing party, Trudeau’s liberals.

Yes, can never understand why advertisers are always a bunch of liberal sell outs. They could care less about defending the system that allows them to make money in the first place.

And about the CBC. And the crime sprees of the gun grabbing RCMP. You can bet there are many having a sigh of relief today knowing there will no longer be any scrutiny.

I have no interest in the other networks. They are all clones, the CBC, CTV and Global. Really what is the difference between any of them? None of them engaged in any investigative journalism.

Half of America is conservative and yet there is no market for conservative media in this country either. The left will force advertisers out with threats and blacklists. It is how the left operates.

And if the FCC succeeds in destroying the Internet for the world, Canadians will have nowhere to express their political values.

A quibble. I know Fox News is not perfect, but at least it is something. Canada has NOTHING. In the end Sun News only had 8000 viewers. 8000 real conservatives in Canada is not much.

Somehow I missed this thread and JUST found out that Sun News is no more.

Very, very disappointed. I loved Ezra, Brian, Michael and David Menzies.

They were swimming uphill from day one in the vast left-wing country. It was only a matter of time, sadly.

Now I'm left with Fox News, which is not sufficient to cover Canadian issues, and frankly around US election time I get sick of over FNC fawning over RINOs.
