The YouTube channel Street Politics Canada is, by its own description, an “independent news organization that aims to cover unfiltered news.”

“Unlike other news organizations,” it writes, “we are clear and upfront about our biases.”

Since April 2022, it has published approximately 600 YouTube videos catering to an audience of Canadian conservatives, nearly all of which take aim at Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. These typically consist of news clips, still photos, and basic motion graphics, accompanied by a voiceover relaying arguments and information gleaned from an assortment of Canadian sources. Titles include “Worst Prime Minister In History Gets Booed By Canadians” and “WATCH!! Trudeau Gives UNHINGED SPEECH After Protestors HECKLE him AGAIN!!” Thumbnail images often compare the prime minister to Hitler.

I’m so sick of defending him from all the blatant lies told about him, mainly because I’ve only ever voted LPC as and ABC option, but I can’t just let sleeping dogs lie with the more extreme lies.

I’ve been painted as a Trudeau lover by some, and that’s only because they only see the world in black and white, you’re either against him or with him.

I really really wish I could have a conversation where I could criticize some of the stuff he does/has done, and give him recognition for other things, without a political conversation turning into the same sound bites from the news, or bullshit from Facebook within 30 seconds.
