Canada's Canned Conservative Calls

If you hear pro-Conservative Party callers to radio shows in Canada, their opinions
"might not be as spontaneous as they sound," reports Alexander Panetta. "Some of those
apparently ad-libbed musings are actually being choreographed at the Conservative Party
of Canada's national headquarters.

The governing party has produced talking points
<http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=talking_points> for grassroots supporters
on a variety of issues, feeding them lines on everything from climate change
<http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=climate_change> to child care." Visitors to
the ruling party's website <https://mycampaign.conservative.ca/EN/4936/77265> enter
their postal code, select a topic and it "spits out the times, phone numbers, and names
of local talk shows to call -- along with a handy list of good things to say about the
Conservatives and bad things to say about their opponents." The party's strict message
discipline "has survived their two years in government: requests to speak publicly are
routinely vetted by the Prime Minister's Office, scores of MPs will recite identical
sound bites on any given topic, and the government often allows only one person to make
public utterances on a given issue." Scripting radio calls goes even further, and has
drawn objections from media professionals. "We want people to phone in and express their
own opinions," said radio host Mark Sutcliffe. During a recent television show, "a
caller appeared to be stumbling over a list of written notes. 'Are you reading from
something?' the frustrated host interjected."

criminal plans, cover-ups and free-speech silencing by powerful people in governments,
foundations, corporations and media, which are done using the name of democracy, human
rights, false interpretations of religions, cults, occults, patriotism, economy,
business, media, elections, justice, charity, etc., and are used to trick the public
into hatred & wars and out of their lives, money and freedoms, while the propaganda we
are subjected to makes us believe that we have evolved to where such things cannot
happen [remember slavery, apartheid.]. Please share what you learn with others who do
not have access to the internet. This is only a tip of the iceberg. Stop the hatred that
is used to promote the dehumanization of the victims of predatory aggressions;spread the
truth;free your mind from being a Zioncon occupied territory of the neo-feudal lords by
rejecting the mainstream news propaganda. Caution: real news may induce a kind of
schizophrenia because it provides a true vision of reality which is so different from
the one we are presented by the mass media spins. Latest real infonews available at
