So, does it mean Canadian media feed less fake news to their audience, or does it mean Canadian audience are more gullible to fake news??

Canada was handcuffed unless the US either dropped the extradition request or made a plea agreement with Meng, which is what happened. The Micheals were obviously part of an agreement between the US and China. Meng gets a slap on the wrist and the Micheals come home.
So Canadian PM flew to US many times, begging Master Trump and Master Bidden to use Meng as leverage aka hostage in exchange of Michaels release??
If he truly believed in rule of law, he should tell Uncle Sam "It's ok to Canada if you drop the charges against Meng according to your law. We will negotiate with China on Michaels release independently since according to our laws and your laws, the two cases are independent...." ?

Why? You can't really believe NAZI Germany had an independent media. That's even more unbelievable than China having an independent media.
After receiving a $1m check to buy toys for winning The Most Politically Correct Canadian Kindergarten Pupil Award by reciting thousands of political-correct books without one word wrong, Aristides is surrounded by hundreds of sales representatives from all sorts of toy stores to sell their toys.
Overwhelmed by the rhetoric from these sales representatives, Aristides asks Xul for help to choose which toys he should buy.
"Why do you ask me?" Xul is surprised. "I'm just a passerby of the event. We even don't know each other. How could I know what you need?"
"I choose you because you are not one of these sales representatives. You are not even my parents or friends," Aristides replies. "Your opinion matters more to me than all from them since you are independent, according to political-correct books I recited." ?
Independent doesn't mean "telling the truth". Both CNN and FOX are independent from US government, but if you want to lean what President Trump is, you will find quite opposite answers from them.?
Another Example:
The video below shows in 2018, an independent media FOX interviewed an independent columnist Gordon Chang, who was famous for his book The Coming Collapse of China published in 2001. I don't need to post a Chinese state-owned media because everyone know what it says. But regarding the topic of "the Collapse of China", which one was telling the truth?
US-China trade war is easy to win: Gordon Chang
The one flaw of the independent media theory is that there isn't a media which could be truly independent since it is run by men, just like courts which I mentioned in my first post here.
After all, if audience are just like the The Most Politically Correct Canadian Kindergarten Pupil Award winner in my joke above, only taking in all the BS which the media they trusted most feed them without any independent thinking, they will only be the puppet of the media, regardless dependent or independent, to empower the politicians whom are chosen by the mind f**ker to represent its interests.
In 2004 German film Downfall, Goebbels claimed "Years ago, I conquered Berlin from the Reds...", and he was generally correct. Years prior to the downfall of Nazi, Nazi Party wasn't the ruling party of Germany, Goebbels' media was independent from the government of Germany then, and Hitler was indeed to be empowered by Germany voters who were under influence of Goebbels' mind manipulating skills.....

It does smell a little fishy , it has taken our courts 3 years to get this far just to determine if we could ship her to the US ,and now suddenly all 3 sides have come to an agreement politically and like you said all the courts have suddenly came to the same choice....how could everything be settled in 1 day or a few days But it would not be the only time this government has influenced the courts. Of course i think I'm giving Justin to much credit i don't think Canada played much of a role here.
The timing is in favor of Trudeau. If the event happened before the federal election, it would give opposite parties lots of ammunition to attack him. Besides, Canada can't hold Meng forever if Canada still wants to play the rule of law stuff. Once Meng was handed over to US or released to China according laws, Canada would lose its leverage aka hostage? for negotiation with China on release of Michaels.
Of course Biden also has strong motivation to solve the problem. Obviously Trump's trade war against China has bogged down like the German offensive to capture Stalingrad in October 1942 so Biden may want to find a way out before anything worse happens. And Uncle Sam also has little financial problem which needs someone to buy more US treasury bonds.....

Freedom of speech means that if you criticize government, they don't fine you or imprison you. It also means the Government can't penalize you for anything you say or post, unless it is incitement to violence or hate speech.
Private companies, like Global, have no obligation to accept what you, or anyone else, posts on their site. They have the right to reject what you say, just as you have to say it.
Hitler was so stupid that he didn't make Propaganda Ministry a private company and Goebbels its CEO....?

The Afghan government couldn't survive without Western troops because it never succeeded in establishing loyalty from the tribal and clan chiefs, and because its innate corruption and theft at every level also meant it never obtained any sense of loyalty from the soldiers who were expected to fight and die to preserve it. All the higher level officers were political appointees with little ability who stole everything they could. Small wonder none of their men would fight.
How could it succeed in establishing loyalty from the tribal and clan chiefs if it was required only to do US's bidding?
For example:
If Trudeau always says:
"I will ban seal hunt in Canada because my US master BC2004 thinks killing seals is brutal... "
and
"I will encourage Canadian soldiers throwing dogs off cliff because my American master tells me killing dogs is the best way to train soldiers ready to kill enemy in a battle..."
How could he get a PM job from Canadian voters in an election?

Mammals rose to rule the planet after dinosaurs fell. But dinosaurs didn't get extinct because of mammals, but because they couldn't evolve themselves to adapt the changing world.
If you compare the speech of President Not Sure in 2006 film Idiocracy with Trump's, you will find the fabricated future US in film even better than the current real US, since at least the the fabricated US president is trying to solve his country's problems, not to avoid facing them.

I remember days ago, someone joked under the news of Canadian federal election results and made me laugh: "How could Trudeau get re-elected since most comments here hate him so much..."??
-
Under the CTV news:
I wrote the comment as a reply to someone's comment "These folks are always going places they shouldn't and then expecting their country to bail them out of their deliberate mess."
I believed his meant for Michaels, so I replied his post to explain my understanding why they were in China:
QuoteAccording to Wiki: "Michael Peter Todd Spavor is a Canadian consultant who has worked extensively in North Korea. He is director of Paektu Cultural Exchange, an organization that promotes investment and tourism in North Korea."
Please think: Do you really believe there is any true Canadian business man but spy who used to live in China near N.K border and his business is to promote tourism for North Korea？
There are tens thousands of Canadians live or work in China, as true businessmen, or employees of the Chinese branches of Canadian companies or hired by Chinese employers (like English or French teachers). If China did arrest innocent Canadian randomly, would it be odd that Canadian government didn't evacuate these Canadians from China in the first place?
Had you ever think why two Michaels were released just a few hours after Meng was released? Obviously there was an arrangement between US, Canada and China governments prior to Meng's release. But wait a minute: If Canada and US are truly the countries ruled by law, how could Canadian and American governments be so sure that both US and Canadian judges/courts would release her so they could make the arrangement with China prior to her release? If the legal system were truly independent in Canada and US, how could the governments of these two countries use Meng's release as the leverage to negotiate with China for Michaels' release?
If anybody wants to live in a country which is truly ruled by law, he should look for a country in which police, judges and politicians are all robots which are programmed with laws. But even if he could find a place like that, the result would still be uncertain since the control programs of these robots were written by men, which means there might be some bugs and backdoors inside these robots.
But my comment disappeared within a minute. I though I might click a wrong button, so I posted it again, and it disappeared again. So I'm sure it wasn't technical.
This isn't the first time my comment disappeared under Canadian media's news page. I remember last time my comment was just pure scientific, saying the long term side effects of RNA vaccines were unknown since they were latest technologies which had never been used before.
How could someone call these freedom of speech if Geobbels kinds always delete arguments not in favor of their agenda, or in most cases, the comment sections are turned off so readers have no way to comment at all? ??
As for rule of law, my argument is in the quotation. And the incident itself has proven that there even isn't rule at all.?

America won: Nowadays, in the west, gays are free to kiss in public.
If you think political-correctness alone can win a war you are wrong. For example, Indians have freedom of shitting on this public beach, but I guess nobody here wants to go to that beach even if he or she is an Indian Canadian:
This video is age restricted. Make sure you are of age before click the link.
Nonetheless, political reform did play a rule on defeating Soviet in the Cold War. Just imagine, nowadays if black citizen still had to sitting on the back on a bus and in a cinema, I bet China after Mao's Death, alone with many other none west countries, would join Soviet side, not team up with US and the West, which would change the tide of the Cold War in 1980s.
But this isn't the proof of the victory of political-correctness. Back in the time before 1960s, racialism was political-correct and mixing white kids with black kids in the same school was politically incorrect then, at least incorrect in some states of US. It was the courage of choosing to do right thing over follow political-correct books which was left by the founders of the system hundreds years ago helped US to win the Cold War.
Nowadays the US's problem is their elite class wrongly interpreted the cause of US's wining and misled the whole nation to believe that cold war/hot war/trade war....would be easy to win if just clinging on politically correct books. No need hard working, no need sacrificing a bit of your freedom for greater good to achieve final victory...
Using China, US and India for examples:
China: Sacrificing a few months of freedom of roaming on streets and business losses results both daily life and economy almost back to normal since then:
US: A few months of mask-free election campaign resulted the covid infection number great again...
As for India, a few days of freedom of dreaming of "vaccine superpower" has become the greatest humanitarian disaster after the cold war.
Indian Today Mar 9, 2021:
Just less than 2 months later:
Political-correctness can't help you to achieve the victory against Covid19, but doing right thing at right time can. And the "Right" isn't judged by political doctrines but by science. China wins because except a few weeks in the early stage, the government and people strictly following scientific measures. The US and India failed because their national leaders put political considerations over science.

And if Kim Jong-un watched these, he would be very proud of himself that he would refuse to help even if Xi made the request...

Like Adam Smith, for example.
=====
So, why is North Korea a disaster - but South Korea rich?
Why did the Soviet Union collapse?
=====
But I have two broader points:
1. Prices, markets are good. Numbers help people co-operate.
2. Individual freedom is good. When individuals choose their own way, it is good.
Kim Jong-un: Nuke is good. I have nukes so I have survived and you are died.
Saddam Hussein: You have survived because your country borders with China and Russia. If I had nukes, Iraq would have been wiped out by US's nuclear strike...
When you compare two things, you need to put them under same the same condition. If you put all the sanctions which NK bears on SK, you will see "market or freedom" won't save the day.
If you had ever paid attention to the long line before the return counter when you were shopping at Walmart, Costco or Best Buy after Boxing Day and though through it, you would know "individuals choose their own way" didn't mean they would certainly choose the right way....
If US indeed believed in market solutions, why would it need to put sanctions on anyone? Why would it just let individual companies choose if they wanted to trade with NK, Myanmar, Russia.... or not?

It seems like US presidents are no better than those incompetent mask factory manager and worker:

When I said Trump would fail his voters, I didn't mean Trump himself would cause the failure, though I have to agree that Trump is more stupid than I thought. I meant that Trump would fail his voters because his promise MAGA was a mission impossible.
And if you watch the videos below, you will know why:
At 0:52 in the first video, a worker even didn't mask her nose when dealing with these medical products, so you can imagine how many workers would do the same if the manager and reporter weren't there. And I suppose you have noticed that they didn't wear protective clothes to prevent these medical products from being contaminated by their daily clothes. You can also see the manager even picked up a medical mask without wearing gloves. How could they MAGA without taking their jobs seriously but only whining, blaming China for stealing their jobs, complaining government for not funding them, and begging customer to buy their poorer quality products with higher price?
Make something great again means it was great before. Trump, Biden or any president couldn't make America great again without the people who made America great before. That is what I meant to say then.

Sure...that's why the CPC exercises so much control over media in China...a very big mind for total control. Canada foolishly partnered with China for vaccine development and manufacturing, but the CanSino fiasco bit Trudeau right in the ass. So Canada turned to the Americans and British instead.
If you read my reply to myata you would know Trudeau turned to India for help since currently there is no help from US and UK...
I remember I told you last year that Cansino was a private company. 3 of 4 founders of the company are Canadian citizens and another one is a Canadian PR. The company raises money from HK stock market and invests heavily on dozens of vaccines but none of them have been approved to sell in Chinese market yet. Its Ad5-nCoV vaccine is developed by its partner Dr. Chen Wei's team who work for the Academy of Military Medical Science of PLA, which means at least part of the funds to develop the vaccine are from the government so it isn't up to Cansino to give its intellectual property away to a foreign countries.
A total control doesn't mean it has better controlling effectiveness than a smart partial control. Local anesthesia sometimes is more deceiving than general anesthesia, which means you think you are conscious and know what's going on in your body but actually feel nothing when the surgeon cuts a big piece of flesh off you back....

You make a lot of bets...do you also bet that a lot of Chinese don't know that proven western vaccines have been sold to many nations around the world ?
China has never been as such small mind as US government and media. If you knew a Chinese private company bought the right of selling BioNTech vaccine in China before Pfizer bought it, you would not bet.
BioNTech, Fosun Pharma initiate Covid-19 vaccine candidate trial in China
There is a real story which sounds like a joke. The Taiwanese separatist President vowed to ban any Chinese vaccines in Taiwan and told her voters that she would buy vaccines from US. But when she approached Pfizer, Pfizer told her that it couldn't sell Pfizer vaccine to Taiwan since Fosun Pharma had already bought the right of selling BioNTech vaccine in Chinese market from BioNTech, and Taiwan was include in Chinese market.? Now she has to pay extra money to Pfizer so Pfizer could pay Fosun Pharma as compensation, and She still need to wait in queue until all her American masters get shots first.
And if you knew where the active ingredients of Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine are made.....

And so, as Health Canada is preparing to approve Astra-Zeneca-Oxford vaccine that has shown limited efficacy against some novel strains, how do we ensure that the vaccines are distributed fairly and equitably? In my view this is a fair question and the time to answer it is right now. I'd like, for my fellow regular citizens and myself to have the same access to the same quality and efficiency products, procured at public expense, as MPs and GGs and the board and family. While this is still a democracy of course.
Without full transparency in this matter I have little trust that the system will perform as it declares to. We need public open data and statistics: which vaccines are delivered where? One which ones politicians and other public managers got.
You sounds like there were many vaccine makers waiting in queue to sell their vaccines to Canada so Canadian could be a little picky....
But in reality:
India to ‘do its best’ to get coronavirus vaccines to Canada, PM Modi tells Trudeau
Now Trudeau is begging India to sell vaccine to Canada. He forgets weeks ago, he angered Modi by expressing support to Indian farmers who rioted against Modi's new farm acts.
QuoteIndian Prime Minister Narendra Modi says his country “will do its best” to help Canada get COVID-19 vaccines but stopped short of making any specific guarantee that India would ship doses to Canada.

You would lose that bet....
I bet the majority of western people don't know that Chinese "unproven" vaccines have been sold to dozens of countries worldwide. You told me I would lose the bet because a Chinese inactive vaccine showed less effective than US mRNA vaccines...?
For you information, inactive vaccines are theoretically meant to less effective than mRNA vaccines because mRNA can get into your cells and trigger both cellular immunity and humoral immunity, but inactive vaccines only count on humoral immunity since they are dead virus which couldn't get inside your cells.
But effectiveness is only one factor to evaluate the worthiness of a vaccine. Inactive vaccines can be stored in normal fridge temperature, which give them advantage on storage and transportation. This is why there are so many countries buying these inactive vaccines. Since the dead virus can't get into your cells, inactive vaccines are supposed to have less side effectiveness. Millions worldwide have been injected these vaccines, no serious side effect being reported yet. mRNA on the other hand....though serious side effects are rare, but still lots of people are afraid of it and reluctant to take the shots:
-
I bet most Canadians, Americans....have never known that Chinese vaccine makers have sold their vaccines to dozens of countries in the world because their so-called independent mainstream media don't meant them to see these, which would definitely raise doubts to the effectiveness of the authority and the system. Controlling public to access unfavorable information to keep the system safe isn't the exclusive patent of dictatorship.....
-
If you take in idea of someone or something (like politburo, God, government, media, your professor, your book, "independent source of information" or your dad...etc.) blindly without any your own thinking, you are worship someone or something.
God gives you a brain to think, not just take in information from so-called independent sources to store them like cheap a USB thumb drive. You need to do analysis to any information, regardless it from dependent or independent source, before taking it in.
Take Chinese vaccines for example:
After seeing so many countries buying Chinese vaccines(showed in video below), my analysis is that I could hardly believe that all of these countries' doctors and scientists are fooled by CCP politburo and suggest their governments to spend hundreds millions $ to buy so-called "unproven" Chinese vaccine....?
The fact that hundreds of millions foreigners receive these vaccine itself is the prove that their safety and effectiveness since CCP's politburo has no control over these counties' people's mouths. If there were some people died or got seriously ill after being vaccinated by Chinese vaccine, we would see it on VOA, BBC, CNN, FOX.....

I have posted hundreds maybe thousands of comments on YouTube, only a few times comments were deleted. Most likely they were deleted by YouTube channel owners themselves rather than YouTube content censorship. For example, years ago I watched a video on YouTube in which the poster compared different brands of Ni-MH batteries on Market and told his audience which brand was better. I found his testing method was wrong since he didn't understand that there were 2 kinds of Ni-MH batteries on market: one has higher capacity and another holds charges longer. I just post a comment saying he should not only using capacity to judge which battery is better since if someone wants to use these batteries on his TV remote or fire alarm, the later one(which usually can hold charges for years) is better than the one which has higher capacity buy only holds charges for months. The comments disappeared within a minute. I suppose it was unwelcome by the channel owner since it might make him less "professional" and would negatively affect his channel's subscription rates.
I don't comment under Canadian media news channels often since the comment function usually is disabled by these channels so audience have no way to comment.....??
