Description
Why is the Canadian media obsessing over a $2.3 million by-election involving Pierre Poilievre… while barely mentioning a $4.2 BILLION federal payroll system disaster?
In this episode of Tap the Maple, we break down the truth behind the Battle River–Crowfoot by-election, including the massive impact of a 200+ candidate “long ballot” that artificially inflated costs, something the mainstream media conveniently ignores.
We also expose the real story: a multi-billion dollar government payroll system replacement tied to the failed Phoenix pay system, with risks of repeating the same mistakes and costing taxpayers even more.
This isn’t just about politics.
It’s about media bias, selective outrage, and whether Canadians are being shown the full picture, or a carefully curated narrative.
If you’ve ever questioned how stories are framed in Canada… this episode is for you.
