    Journalists from Ezra Levant’s website The Rebel were denied accreditation for a United Nations climate conference. The UN says it’s because they’re an “advocacy media” outlet.

    Guy Laurence, the CEO of one of Canada’s biggest media companies, gets the axe.

    National Post reporter Tristin Hopper co-hosts.
