The CBC's Fifth Estate recently aired their episode, "Conspiracy in Coutts," which purported to delve into the trials and arrests connected to the Coutts blockade. However, the feedback from those closest to the case, including Betty Carbert, the mother of Chris Carbert, and her sister Sue, tells a very different story.

While the CBC employed 36 contributors to craft their narrative, what they delivered has been criticized as one-sided and misleading. Betty and Sue, who followed the trials closely, highlight glaring omissions:

- Ignoring the jury’s verdicts: Chris Carbert and Tony Olienick were found NOT GUILTY of conspiring to murder RCMP officers.

- Selective evidence: The CBC focused on prosecution narratives while neglecting evidence dismissed by the Court and the illegal nature of some RCMP actions.

- Misrepresentation of plea deals: The episode failed to accurately represent the outcomes for Chris Lysak and Jerry Morin, neither of whom admitted to planning violence against police.

Instead of presenting a balanced account, the CBC seemingly sought to vilify these men, ignoring the complex and nuanced reality of the trials and the perspectives of the defendants, their families, and the communities impacted.

What to Expect:

- Live Commentary & Reactions: Jason Lavigne will host a special live viewing of the CBC episode, pausing to provide expert analysis and commentary.

- Guest Insights: Betty Carbert and Marco Van Huigenbos will join to share their firsthand experiences and reactions to the CBC narrative.

The CBC had unparalleled access to courtroom evidence, witness statements, and exclusive interrogation videos, but did it use that access to seek truth or craft propaganda?

Why It Matters:

Canada deserves media that seeks the truth, not sensationalizing stories to fit a pre-ordained narrative. This special episode will highlight how critical it is to challenge mainstream media when they fail to present balanced and factual reporting.
