Deep job cuts at U.S. health agencies could put Canadians at risk because of our integration with US health and safety systems, some warn.

    1. They’re American owned and infiltrating Canadian culture and politics, that still doesn’t mean the information isn’t sound.
    2. I agreed with attacking the points, not the person. I never even reference the article in this sentence.
    3. Sources acceptable for my consumption, again doesn’t mean I am insinuating that American owned media doesn’t provide sound information.

    So, who is saying the information isn’t sound?

      You are by attacking the source when you have no other alternative for what is in the article, and openly admit the article has no issues presenting facts.

      Regardless of who owns the thing, it is still headquartered on Canadian soil, employing Canadians, and providing information that “real” Canadian sources aren’t.

      So give me another source, or shut up about it.

        lmao. what ever shall we do if the Ottawa Citizen didn’t uniquely create this article? There is no known alternative for this article, so I suppose it’s of utmost critical value?

        This point is irrelevant, because if I can find an article from a better source, then the point is moot. And besides, you are insinuating that the Ottawa Citizen provides a service that is unique, and cannot be replicated, which is untrue.

        Regardless of who owns the thing, it is still headquartered on Canadian soil, employing Canadians, and providing information that “real” Canadian sources aren’t.

        1. By going to the site, you are providing it clout that it is undeserving of. And when Canadian media is struggling, that’s not a good thing.
        2. actually there is a conflict of interest, when the ownership is American. These kinds of media output articles more favourable to their owners, because that is literally their business model.
        3. Is it really headquartered on Canadian soil, employing Canadians, and providing real information? I’d rather take my chances with real Canadian owned and operated media.

        So give me another source, or shut up about it.

        Nah. You shut up about it.
