The facebook page Canada Proud often posts news updates, citing mainstream news sources. But the posts sometime add misleading details not found in the original reports, according to a review by The New York Times.

One of its posts this month said Prime Minister Mark Carney had suspended his campaign because of “connections with China” and cited a major Canadian news outlet, Global News, as its source. But the Global News article did not actually mention any connections to China.

Canada Proud describes itself as a “grass-roots group of Canadians” concerned about the country’s direction. The page is owned by Mobilize Media Group, a Toronto public affairs firm.

The company has bought more than $250,000 in ads targeting Canadian voters

    Their office is downtown, go down and ask to talk to someone. Don’t leave until they ask you to.

    You have no obligation not to inconvenience them.

    Search for the company on LinkedIn, click through its employees. Have them get a bunch of ‘Appeared in Searches’ notifications from LinkedIn. Make sure they feel seen by a bunch of their fellow citizens.
