Alceste,

  How lovely to finally hear from you after all these months of your posting "Disagree" on every post I write.
   What precisely is so disagreeable about my opinions?
  I must have got something right somewhere along the way (I've been commenting here 11 1/2 years). Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
   True, "it's their newspaper." But most folks, left, right and center agree for democracy to flourish the press needs to be a friend of the people. It needs to be fully informative, fairly unbiased, investigative, supportive of the struggles of ordinary working people, responsive to the needs of average people, trustworthy, responsible, accountable.
   The G & M is none of these things. It's informative in a small way, biased towards the 1%,  has it's own corporatist globalist agenda,  has no interest in supporting struggling workers, cares not for average middle middle class Canadians, advertising aimed at the wealthy. It's therefore the adversary of average Canadians.
