      1. So, The Rebel (Canada's Breitbart) is collapsing even as the original Breitbart is thriving. Why?

      2. Part of the answer is surely political difference between Trudeau's Canada & Trump's America, but another answer is money.

      3. Breitbart (and Bannon) thrive due to America's vast network of wingnut welfare (specifically The Mercers).

      4. The funding of The Rebel is murky but it seems to have both Canadian conservative money & USA rightwing/Islamophobic money.

      5. One problem The Rebel has is two funding bases are at odds: Canadian donors need a site compatible with CPC, USA donors an alt-right site

          Do you think Levant's next project will take aim at Canada itself, as this Walrus piece suggests? https://thewalrus.ca/ezra-levants-failed-bid-to-change-canada/ …

          Ezra is so thirsty for legitimacy he could never fully publicly admit he ran a wingnut advocacy group, so ended up pushing both sides away.

          (also like, 'anti-semite' is one of his favorite ways of insulting people and like 98% of his readers think that's a compliment)

          It helps that Ezra has always been seen as a creepy little loser by most Canadians.

          It's a bit harsh to bracket David Frum with alt-right loons. He's conservative but he's the old-fashioned reasonable kind, not a nut.

          This reminds me of when Walt got into Deep with the neo-Nazis in Breaking Bad & ended it up backfiring horribly on everyone close 2 him.

          Do not lump Conservative David Frum with these extremist haters.

          There's also no Fox News to prop them up in MSM sphere. Postmedia was doing so, but has abandoned them following Charlottesville.
