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.

Wanna bet these are the same accounts creating a bulk of the comments on MSN news articles? It's sickening how that shit is spoofed to susceptible idiots across thanks to Microsoft Edge's (and formerly Internet Explorer's) default blank page.

Oh right, and they added that "News and Interests" section to the taskbar too, just in case you missed the bullshit vitriol by using another browser...
