Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to State funerals in Canada may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "{}"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:
  • <ref>{{cite web| url=http://www.commemoration.gc.ca/lst-eng.cfm| title=State Funerals in Canada > Past State Funerals| publisher=Queen's Printer for Canada| accessdate=26 August 2011}}</ref> after

Secret account for Shared Services Canada.

This unidentified user is an account run by Shared Services Canada. The IP is linked to a router in a SSC office as a gateway for dozens of workers whose sole job is to clandestinely influence media online.

I don't know if Wikipedia has any practices these days surrounding government propaganda accounts, but it is worth noting that this is one.

I am an unidentified user, but at least I'm not a fed. :) 124.190.192.20 ( talk) 22:17, 5 June 2021 (UTC) reply
