"Canada Proud is part of a network of conservative groups and social media pages initially founded by conservative activist Jeff Ballingall"

Anyone who follows these pages on social medias should know. They are literally propaganda pages, and are loaded with disinformation and misinformation. And if you know people who uses social medias, they should know.

some exemples of sheer lies, source here https://www.desmog.com/canada-proud/

"In 2020, PressProgress reported that Canada Proud was falsely claiming that the federal government had banned Remembrance Day ceremonies.

In 2021, PressProgress reported of Canada Proud claimed that COVID-19 vaccines were being distributed according to “skin colour.”

Now is the time to be getting information from Canadian Owned and Operated media.

There will be disinformation campaigns unlike any other election.
