I’d argue both are fairly stupid and both require a lot of bias to buy. I don’t find it particularly convincing when people who already dislike a politician have to make up the context of a statement in order to get mad about it. If you have to assume all these negative things about it, are you mad at Freeland? or are you just made and busy figuring out what about?
Some Canadians are deciding on things more dire than cutting a streaming service. But most Canadians, including those Canadians, have bigger things to fret about than whether a politician said she’s cutting Disney+. You don’t, which is fine, but maybe you’re a little out of touch yourself.

I aint even mad. As for being out of touch myself, sure I maybe I am, but I'm also not out there trying to convince people that things are not really all that bad. Talking to Canadians as if they're all children is from the Trudeau playbook and will not endear Freeland to Canadians.
Like what a solution, jeez I bet a family having trouble paying their bills never thought to cut out an unnecessary monthly expense.
