      Defend CBC to your family and friends and coworkers if you can. We’re probably not really the target audience for misinformation, but they might be,. Their votes count and they can spread that misinformation too

        This. I used to kinda get why people hate on CBC. But now? It’s needed more than ever.

        Honestly I’ve never actually needed to defend them to anyone in person.

          I have, it’s exhausting because those who have fallen for the lie are about as quick as molasses on a good day.

      Use an adblocker and avoid social media. Use only official sources of information (i.e. party’s official website, elections canada, etc.).

      Avoid news that’s either American owned, heavily bias (left or right), or seems influenced to post clickbait.
