    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault must unblock Rebel News founder Ezra Levant on X, the social media site formerly known as Twitter, under the terms of a court order.

    The order issued by Federal Court Justice Russel Zinn ends an action Levant filed two years ago claiming the Liberal minister was violating his constitutional rights by blocking him.

    Levant argued that his inability to see or respond to Guilbeault’s posts on the platform limited his ability to engage in debate on matters of public concern.

    The order says the parties acknowledge that Guilbeault and the federal government “do not admit and in fact deny any liability in respect of the allegations made in the application.”

    However, under the order, Guilbeault must ensure his X account unblocks Levant immediately and for as long as the minister remains a member of Parliament.

    Rebel News says it has a generally conservative world view, billing the outlet as a supporter of freedom and antidote to the mainstream media.
