They're trying to crush Rebel News. Please help us fight back!
Rebel News is in the Federal Court of Appeal fighting Mark Carney’s government over the unconstitutional QCJO journalism licence — a system that gives politicians the power to decide who is a journalist and who isn’t.
If we lose, the government will tighten its grip on Canadian media by boosting state-funded outlets like the CBC and throttling independent voices like ours.
Carney has unleashed a team of government lawyers backed by the unlimited resources of the Justice Department. We estimate they’ve spent more than a million dollars going after us over the past five years. On our side, we have just two civil liberties lawyers from a small firm — and unlike the CBC, we don’t get $1.5 billion in government subsidies. We have to pay our bills ourselves.
That’s why we need your help to level the playing field. You’re already forced to pay for Carney’s lawyers through your taxes. Please consider chipping in $5, $50, or even $500 to support our legal defence and keep independent journalism alive in Canada!
