About Kate
Why this blog?
Until this moment
I have been forced
to listen while media
and politicians alike
have told me
"what Canadians think".
In all that time they
never once asked.
This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio - "You don't speak for me."

Not many thing send me around the bend as much as the misspelling of the word lose.
I wondered what happened to 'ok' or 'new', or whatever moniker he was using lately.
Now I know.
Or leaving the ‘s' off a plural.
I here you Robert. There speling is abdominable! Loosers!
;-D
Only one "C" in "Canuk", I think...
Our moral and intellectual superiors are loosers.
maybe Luongos skates werent tied?
The Vancouver Stanley Cup Rioters(say that sounds like a good name for a team) were hired under a 'hire the brain damaged' action plan.
the the
The team played a loose game causing them to lose, or should it be that they played a lose game causing them to loose? I'm confused.

Something needs to get tightened up there.
Fall or fell?
What do you expect from the faithful in the Lotus Land? They can't see very well through all the tears...or tear gas...
It reads as though it were written by an English major.
Oh, Jeezus, that could have bin written by me on a good day, on a bad day I can't even read my own writing:-)))))
The hard news department of QR77 has bothered me for a number of years now...AGW piffle, failure to identify criminal suspects ethnicity, pandering pieces on "cyber bullying" etc...and Dave Rutherford is packing it in.
RD at 7:18. With Vancouver, it is more like dive or dove. This Canuck team are better actors than hockey players.
This is the result of whole word reading, auto-correction in Microsoft Word, and the complete elimination of spelling drills in school.
Aside from the educational failures, has anyone enough shame to admit their personal failures in not doing well in English language classes or taking a journalist job? Maybe? No?
Not shame,Osumashi Kinyobe(any relation to Wan?).No urnalist has the ethics or morals to admit they are wrong.It is called cowardice.Sorta like a psycho politico(all of them)admitting they made a mistake.Unfortunately,socialists/commies,useful eedjits,and leftards thrive on that fact.(speaking of that,where's phil?)
Actually I used to be good at spelling (be a good speller?) but as I get up in age, I become worse (worser); course, I'm not much of a typist either. Though typos are just a matter of not rereading what you've typed. Reread, rewrite and edit, edit, edit!
"Only one "C" in "Canuk", I think..."
Ok. Going blind,mojo.Where the heck is the second "C"???
Journalism school plus illiterates resulting from a 'no-zero' policy = this piece of garbage.
After three loses in a row, they determined they needed more S's.
In fairness, it does say "CKNW / News * Talk," not "CKNW / Read * Write." Just sayin' (as someone who did talk radio in Windsor, Ontariobin the early 1980s).
Justthinkin, I think it's a bit of idiocy and hubris.
Obi Wan is an old friend. :)
