The reality is, most of our audience is on the other website. But given its ownership and the fascism and such, we cannot continue to utilize it in good conscience.

I’d be grateful if you’d support @jsource.bsky.social by following us where we’ll be from now on:

The Canada Press Freedom Project tracks press freedom violations including denials of access, online threats, chilling statements, arrests and more.

We think it’s really important to have a thorough, continuous record of these incursions on journalistic work.

Here’s how you can get involved:
