CANADALAND

Many people who broke into the Capitol broadcast their crimes across social media. Twitter, Facebook and other platforms responded by deleting accounts, but other people rushed to preserve and organize all their posts from the assault on the Capitol, as well as photos and videos from journalists present. The collective Bellingcat uses open-source intelligence to investigate events around the world. Their training director Aric Toler tells Jesse how they work. Then, Kurt Phillips used what he found on social media and internet forums to unmask racist Canadian groups for more than a decade on his blog Anti-Racist Canada. He tells Jesse about the trends he's seen in the Canadian hate movement and how his own identity was made public last year.

In rural communities and in the North, people pay ridiculously high bills for ridiculously slow Internet.

But decent Internet access isn't a luxury.  Lower Internet speed equals lower access, lower opportunity and lower status in just about every aspect of modern life. 

And while the digital divide isn't new, the pandemic has widened it, leaving people from Iqaluit to rural Alberta and Ontario frustrated and fuming at ISPs like Xplornet.

Sula Greene reports.
