Legislative Assemblies that condemn magazine articles don’t really impress me.I came home tonight to read that the House of Commons decided to unanimously censure Macleans for its recent story on Quebec. Maybe it’s just me, but I think the House has better things to do with the nation’s business and legislative affairs then pass commentary on a news magazine’s point of view (not that I necessarily agree with Macleans POV, I just think this is a pointless political posturing exercise). 5 comments to Legislative Assemblies that condemn magazine articles don’t really impress me. |
“Baber was *defenestrated* from the Progressive Conservative caucus Friday morning ...” The twitter msg threads in some of these columns about Roman Baber being booted from the Ontario PC caucus is half amusing/half concerning (amusing for the conservative split, concerning about how Trumpian they sound with wanting to disregard Covid public health regs. #onpoli If you want to know how serious the UK variant of #COVID19 is, my friend caught it because a kid was running around the hallways in her building and she returned him to his parents just 2 floors up. Max 12 minutes together indoors. The 'lockdown' is not what is causing hospitals to backlog surgeries and cancer treatments. The virus - and the refusal of the government to act quickly and decisively back in October - is what is causing that damage. Anyone saying otherwise is a fool or liar. @iancapstick when he starts giving names to the stones/rocks around your house.. that's when I'd start getting concerned... |
I agree Scott. There have been much worse things in print they could have taken action on an did not.
Scott: you flubbed your chance to double-up on your CanCon on this entry to help keep up your CRTC license; ya shoulda worked in Shania:
“That Don’t Impress Me Much”
I don’t know about that. Macleans gets $2,600,000 dollars of federal money from the Periodical Fund so what it prints just might be the governments business. I find this fact, along with Andrew Coynes widely spread views on government the height of hyocracy. But I guess you are right. Freedom of the press and all that. Hypocracy accepted, I suppose.
Yup.
If they really cared they do something about that $1 million dollars Macleans is getting for their postage.
