EZRA LEVANT | World Press Freedom Day came and went, and Canada was an embarrassment
Yesterday was World Press Freedom Day. I noticed that most of the people talking about it were government. In fact, the media people don't really seem to care about freedom anymore — certainly not their own independence. I think they gave that up when they took Trudeau's bailout money. In fact, if anything, most of the mainstream media are positively hostile to the idea of press freedom. GUEST: Sheila Gunn Reid
