These media sources are slightly to moderately conservative in bias. They often publish factual information that utilizes loaded words (wording that attempts to influence an audience by appealing to emotion or stereotypes) to favor conservative causes. These sources are generally trustworthy for information but may require further investigation. See all Right-Center sources. Overall, we rate Reason Magazine Right-Center biased based on story selection that favors Libertarian positions and High for factual reporting due to mostly proper sourcing and a clean fact-check record.

Huh, good to know while reading the article. Would be nice to have a better source though

From article, it looks like it's on the mind of the party leaders too, just in a bit of a weird way

Fraser cautioned against blaming the lack of affordable housing on new immigrants.

"Let's look at what the actual cause of the challenges are that we're dealing with, and recognize that immigration can actually be used as a tool to bring the workers that we need to build more homes," he said.

"We have to be really, really careful that we don't have a conversation that somehow blames newcomers for the housing challenges that have been several decades in the works in Canada."

Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre accused Prime Minister Justin Trudeau of doing just that during his own media availability in Ottawa on Monday.

"He wants Canadians to forget all that and blame immigrants. He wants to divide people to distract from his failings," he said.

"He thinks if you're afraid of your neighbour you might forget that you can't pay your rent. This is what demagogues do."

Yea especially when tourists often don't know about the local risks. Warning signs are mostly for people who aren't from a particular area

Don't want a 'boy who cried wolf' situation

Ehhh, letting a protest devolve into chaos and violence will only cause more protests/chaos/violence afterwards

Her defence team argued the deaths and collapses were the result of "serial failures in care" in the unit and she was the victim of a "system that wanted to apportion blame when it failed".

do you think it'll be enough evidence to convince

No, nothing ever will

You cannot reason someone out of something they were not reasoned into

I don't think this discussion is just about Lemmy

I agree that Lemmy (+ Reddit and other forums) by design are for anonymous accounts.

At the same time, things like Twitter / Facebook/ Instagram are more for personally identifiable accounts. I want to see photos from my friends on Instagram, not random people. I get the random people photos on Reddit/Lemmy

It's different use cases. I use my real name on Mastodon and PixelFed, and I use this account on Lemmy.
