The Rebel Media is a Canadian conservative media company founded by Ezra Levant shortly after the fall of Sun News, the biggest conservative advocate in the Canadian media. Rather than being on television, The Rebel hosts several online shows, which require a paid subscription to view, as well as a YouTube channel with regular conservative news updates.[1] In December 2016, Levant announced his "Big Plan" to make The Rebel more influential than CTV, Global News, or even the CBC. He asked for $63 000 in donations to pay for a new studio and equipment. The funds were quickly raised. The Rebel has also been responsible for many petitions, and for putting up many billboards across Canada, advertising conservative values and convicting liberal politicians, among them Denis Coderre and former Ontario Liberal premiere Kathleen Wynne.

Canadian left-wing political parties and their members, including the Liberal Party of Canada under Justin Trudeau and the Alberta New Democratic Party under former Alberta premiere Rachel Notley, refuse to acknowledge Rebel Media as a legitimate media outlet[2] and have attempted to block the company from official press conferences[3] and coverage of political happenings in Canadian and provincial parliaments controlled by those parties, even going so far as to falsely label Rebel Media as "hate-inciting" without proof,[4] because unlike state-owned broadcaster the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation and other liberal media outlets, Rebel Media reporters have reported on stories which the liberal media choose to ignore and which leftist politicians, and other leftists in the public eye,[5] do not like and want to keep under wraps, and have asked tough questions which leftist politicians typically refuse to answer, especially when such politicians are involved in political or personal scandal, out of concern that answering such questions would affect them negatively (including the probability of legal trouble as well as damage to their political careers - up to and including resignation from their offices - and their public images). In the case of the Alberta NDP, that party, under Notley's direction, even used lawfare to illegally target Rebel Media for censorship and persecution when it exposed corruption and scandal involving Notley and a number of her cabinet members.[6][7] Conversely, the White House under President Donald Trump has welcomed Rebel Media reporters and given the company media accreditation.[8]
