Trudeau slams Rebel News: “I won’t call it a media organization”

During Thursday night’s federal election leaders debate, Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau was asked a question by Rebel News, who were allowed to participate in the event following a federal court ruling, whether his government stands by their decision to not give them accreditation for the debate.

Trudeau said accreditation is done by the press gallery and by a consortium of networks with “strong perspectives on quality journalism.”

Trudeau went on to say that “organizations like yours that continue to spread disinformation and misinformation about vaccines, around how we’re actually going to get through this pandemic,” adding “I won’t call it a media organization – your group of individuals need to take accountability for some of the polarization that we’re seeing in this country.”

I wouldn't exactly call Global a media organization either. I wouldn't exactly call Trudeau a leader either.

[benhughey]

We live in a time when intelligent people are being silenced and ignored so that stupid people wont be offended.

At least Rebel news tells the Truth, and darkness hates the light

[rangerrick]

He slams Rebel Media cause they call him out on things. Truth hurts....

[CanoeToNewOrleans]

Hearing Trudeau talk about accountability after his numerous ethics violations is the pinnacle of hypocracy.

[tylerkraft]

We want to control what you hear, think and do. The audacity of these tools.

My respect for Rebel Media went up 1000x ❤️

As a leader of a Country which you are not it is your OBLIGATION to answer to ALL Canadians questions no matter who they are or who they represent.

[chrisray]

Yes Justin. Canadians are cluing in to what kind of country they want, and it doesn’t include your leadership

[katheleenfriesen]

How about the government taking accountability for their actions

[nicolecarriere]

I just subscribed to Rebel news, thank you 😊

[dominicbarbucci]

Accountability, wow, rich coming from him. Tough questions which he never answers. Spoken like a true pompous, hypocritical selfish snob. In other words it's his way or the highway.

Trudeau in the last Federal Elections Debate barred Rebel News Media and a bunch of other independent media outlets too. He sneakily served the notice to these organizations at 5pm on a Friday (debate was on a monday), and hoping they couldn't get to the courts as they closed for the weekend, except the Supreme Court one of the judges decided to take this case over the weekend citing it's to important of an issue. Trudeau then hired a bunch of lawyers at the Cnd Taxpayer's expense to try to stop these Media Outlets, but the Judge sided with these outlets. I wonder what happened this time. Edit. *Looks like the Judge sided again with Rebel News Media, over Trudeau.*

The more Trudeau doubles down on this rhetoric the more he shows how much of a vacuous leader he is and how little he understands Canadians. Liberte!!

[kevinacres]

"There’s a level of admiration I actually have for China" Justless Trudeau

[zackto]

This level of division in Canada should be a red flag to all of us.

[taylorskouris]

Has anyone ever seen Justin Trudo truly happy anytime other than him smiling in black face pictures? Every time I see a thumbnail of this guy I have to click on it to make sure it isn’t Castro in a suit and tie. The brows and that curled lip is uncanny.

[josephfederico]

So pretty much he dont want any media organizations out there that he has no control over

[Themiddleman]

A journalist isn't doing their job if they only show you one side of the story.

Interesting and telling that Trudeau doesn't respect the Honorable judge's decision in allowing Rebel news and other alternative media into the debates.
Only the bought off, pre approved media that tows his party lines are accepted.
Wake up, Canadians
