OMG - terrifying! 🙀 Now why would Carney do that? “A reminder that Mark Carney eliminated the national ‘Weatheradio’ service. The network of 200+ stations provided 24-hour current conditions, forecasts, and evacuation warnings, on a continuous loop.” 🙀
Radio becomes more & more a solid service 🎗️, a potentially lifesaving solid service, when all others become enshittified & no longer fit-for-purpose (if they ever were).

I know this doesn't affect that many people but they gave like no warning so I guess now's the time to say something if you care.
