Oof: Chrystia Freeland Gets Buried Under A Ratio For 'World Press Freedom Day' Tweet

May 3 was 'World Press Freedom Day' and it really made us wish that we still had one. If you haven't heard of World Press Freedom Day, don't lose any sleep over it. It's a fake commemorative day made up by the United Nations in the '90s to 'celebrate the value of truth and to protect the people who work courageously to uncover it.' LOL. Don't get us wrong, that's a noble goal. But having this objective and holiday created by the United Nations is a little like having the Nazi Party declare a 'World Jewish Celebration.' Want proof? For this year's World Press Freedom Day Conference (another gathering of rich elites you are not invited to join), UNESCO's theme was 'the importance of journalism and freedom of expression in the context of the current global environmental crisis.' HAHAHAHAHA. UNESCO also uses World Press Freedom Day to fight against the scourge of 'disinformation,' which is honestly just too Orwellian for words.

Maybe the best encapsulation of the world's elites hypocrisy and hierarchy surrounding World Press Freedom Day came last night from Chrystia Freeland, Canada's Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance. You may remember her as the person who froze the bank accounts of the people who organized and donated to the Canadian trucker rally during COVID. Yep. She's all about 'freedom,' she is. -- Chrystia Freeland @cafreeland: “A healthy democracy depends on an active free press. To the brave women and men around the world who can face assault and persecution for uncovering the truth — thank you. #WorldPressFreedomDay” https://pbs.twimg.com/media/GMsPdxpWMAAURTA?format=jpg&name=large -- Oh, honey. How stupid do you think people are? One of the first to mock Freeland for her tweet was Ezra Levant, the publisher of Rebel News. -- Ezra Levant 🍁🚛 @ezralevant: “Here’s you smirking as your bodyguards arrest and assault a reporter.”

This video is from January of THIS YEAR. The reporter seen here is Rebel News' David Menzies. And Freeland's security detail assaulted and arrested him for asking Freeland uncomfortable questions about terrorist groups. Happy World Press Freedom Day, indeed. Just remember that it doesn't apply to anyone who would dare report on Freeland herself.
