The fact that food banks even exist is proof that successive governments have failed in their duties. Food banks are a privately funded bandaid used to cover inadequate government programs. That the bandaid itself is now failing means the government is failing Canadians more than ever before.

Cost of living hitting food banks in Canada so hard that visits are limited to once a month

Food banks across the country are being forced to scale back services at a time when Canadians need them the most, due to limited supplies.

The Public Broadcasting Act of 1967 created the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. I reread it today; nothing in the law allows a president to defund PBS and NPR. In fact, Congress specifically sought to insulate public media from political pressure.

The rebel caused a scene before the debate, that the commission has decided is a security threat so now the actual journalists who are here can’t ask questions to the party leaders. This pathetic excuse of a “news” just costed the press an opportunity to hold politicians accountable.
