Governments around the world are cracking down on Facebook. But not Canada's.

Forget taxes and regulations — Trudeau's Ministers are getting photo-ops and a $500,000 investment in Canada's journalism industry from Facebook.

Here's Facebook's head of Canadian public policy, Kevin Chan hosting Minister of Democratic Institutions, Karina Gould, at FB's Oct 19 launch of the Canadian Election Integrity Initiative.

So. Why scrutinize Facebook when you can partner with them?

Leaders from dozens of countries, including Germany and Australia, aren't as smitten.

Concordia communications professor Fenwick McKelvey joins Jesse.

Canadian grocery store billionaires duped us for 14 years— Vive la gift card!!

Joshua Boyle, former Taliban hostage, faces 15 charges including sexual assault and administering a noxious drug. What did media miss in its initial welcome-home coverage?

Mayor John Tory and Toronto city staffers cite 'miscommunication' as the reason homeless people were turned away from shelters across the city (which were definitely not at capacity, alright?).

The Quebec mosque shooting took place nearly a year ago. So how is Aymen Derbali— who was shot 7 times and left paralyzed when he attempted to stop the gunman — only just being acknowledged by Canadian media?

Journalist and activist Desmond Cole joins Jesse.

But first—she needs to learn how to tell a joke.
