Salutations everybody,
Last week i was watching the late TV news on our French-speaking national TV, on SRC airwaves in the province of Québec. As i was about to zap i heard of the death of an artist named Gordon Downie, while the video actually started with Trudeau’s new (probable) federal gain in Lac St-Jean instead. A split-second later we were shown a few music-related pictures then more politics with cap’tain Itnoc crying in Ottawa:

Global: Justin Trudeau delivers emotional, tearful tribute to Gord Downie (2017-Oct-18)
“Gord was my friend,” said a tearful Trudeau.
Some more musical contextualization followed, then just before the conclusion scene of this ~3 minutes document some old record of Trudeau litterally sharing the stage with his good friend Gord hit us to finish the work: this time the pretext was focussed on the artist being honored for his contribution to the aboriginal cause:

News 1130: Indigenous leaders praise Gord Downie as friend, ally on reconciliation (2017-Oct-18)
« …I honour the life and work of Gord Downie, a dedicated and accomplished artist who used his profile to advance reconciliation and build support for First Nations peoples… »
M’well, it seemed quite like SRC/CBC didn’t really care this could feel as abusive TrudeauMania (propaganda) to viewers who may have noticed the missing/weak linking to justify repeated juxtapositions of Tudeau vs Downie, back and forth. Jumping from plain politics to music to more politics again, etc., before concluding as announced with more music-related images.
In all honesty i found this mass-media tactic too obvious to ignore, too bad i don’t have captures to fully describe such twisted event. At least there’s some video somewhere and i figure it’s a 3-in-1, but it will be much too late if/when criticism from some far future finally arrives. Post-mortem so to speak!..
In addition it turns out there was some crucial “scientific” symposium about so-called “ADDICTION” starting on October 19 at hotel Marriott in Montréal/Qc, continuing in English 2 more days at Niagara-Falls/On:

Hence now i got to wonder if that wasn’t just too convenient as a coïncidence. In any case we yet got to hear of this other event that was simply eclipsed despite the fact this is where bigot anti-cannabic prohibitionists gain real power IMO, trying to influence Québec’s legislature on cannabis to conform to these peole’s own socio-toxic delusions/hallucinations (…):
