Why isn't the CBC or any other bigger news media reporting on this? It's always smaller news media who talk about it. 

This needs to be heard by a wider audience.

Literally from the article you're commenting on:

These groups of white nationalists “focus on physical recruitment and combat training in preparation for eventual violent confrontation,” according to an internal government report, first reported by CBC News.

"But why hasn't CBC News personally driven a van to my house and shouted this information into my bedroom window?"

CBC yes, not CTV, not Global News, or a garbage major Canadian news station if one exists.

Difference: one of those is not owned by oligarchs.

Canadian National Television, or CNTs.

[–] dudesss@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 days ago

I don't know what that is, but if it's garbage 🛻🗑️ trash it

Garbage Canadian news, like TVA and LCN owned by Pierre Karl Peladeau.

Turns out, they did. But you didn't read the article, much like you didn't bother reading the op article. You complain nobody reports while you don't even bother the read or be aware of what's reported....

Yes. Somebody already told me, thanks.

But what about other big news network?

[–] minorkeys@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Did you even check them?

[–] SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 days ago

Because the CBC is shit? They are so scared of their budgets they don't want to insult anybody in Alberta.

Turns out if you spread a secret Nazi groups going ons to the world, they Nazi you after.

Do we have no mechanism for suppressing duplicate posts? Because this one is in my feed 3x in rapid succession. I mean, the Tyee is great and I support them, and this is an important story, and white nationalists are a security threat everywhere. But I don’t need to see this same headline 3 times in a row…

I don't follow Lemmy closely, but I believe they one day aspire to have a feature to combine similar links together to follow the discussion easier. Piefed does have this feature already and it's great.

My app does this automatically. Connect, for anyone curious. Dev is active, have had them fix a few things and they were quick to do so once I reached out.

I'm actually super appreciative of this and would have missed it otherwise. Including subscribing and donating.

[–] dudesss@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 days ago

There is tax credits with supporting Canadian broadcast companies, but I'm not sure if that only works with subscriptions, or if it works with donations too.
