16 million Canadians watch opening ceremony Sixteen million Canadians watched at least part of Friday's broadcast of the opening ceremony, making it the most-watched winter opening ceremony since Sochi in 2014, CBC said.

NBCUniversal drew ~21.4M viewers for the Milano–Cortina opening ceremony vs. ~16M on CBC/Radio-Canada. Adjusted for population, it was about 6× more watched in Canada than the U.S. A real tale of two countries—and how they engage with the world. www.thestar.com/rolling-file... #MilanoCortina2026

906 days.

That's how long Meta's been blocking news in Canada.

Doesn't matter if the outlet is based in Canada, the U.S. or Germany – we can't read it. Small non-profit or legacy newspaper. Can't read it. Posts made before Aug. 1, 2023? Nope. But disinformation, AI-generated spam, that'll pass.
