MARCH 18, 2025 – The Canadian government has announced the formation of the Canadian Meme Corps (CMC), a new unit within the Canadian Armed Forces tasked with countering U.S.-led information warfare.
The CMC will create viral content to challenge narratives that undermine Canada’s interests. Officials say this is a direct response to increasing political and economic pressure from Washington, including trade disputes and media influence and on-going attacks on its national sovereignty and the human rights of Canadians.
Critics argue the initiative is illegal, unethical, and a waste of resources, while supporters see it as a necessary step in protecting national sovereignty in the digital age.
