I'm just curious, any reason everything you post seems to be from the paywalled WinnipegFreePress.com?

I'm getting an uneasy feeling about that.

I post quite a bit from CBC as well, also The Tyee when they put out relevant articles. As to why I use Winnipeg Free Press, it's reputable and Canadian owned, plus I'm a subscriber. When I first started sharing news on lemmy, it was pretty CBC heavy which people were complaining about. So I was trying to find alternate sources which were not American owned (read: Postmedia) to mix things up a bit.
