Best Canadian Blog
2004 - 2007
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."

The press. Aren’t they full blown green. This should be a milestone! When do the carbon burning celebrations start?
(oh and yeah. get with the times). Heretics
One last cheerleading sesson for the Shiny Pony then off to the big crater in the crust.
They have been on the buggy whip list for ages. The more they lie and obfuscate the less people pay them any mind. The same reason I dropped cable. Why would I pay them to watch commercials?
“Guy Crevier said it is too costly to sustain both the print paper and digital initiatives, and that cutting printing to one day a week will save La Presse $30-million annually.”
One day a week, eh? Now that is unsustainable. It is unlikely that they can continue to afford the highly paid trained staff that produce the actual print edition and the distribution network needed to get out to 4 papers/month.
This…..is a very good start.
Buggy whip. Does ghian ghomeshi work there
Once they are fully on line, they will be competing with social media, bloggers and other failed news publications that could no longer afford the dead tree method of spreading the lies.
Most of the mame-stream news media are full blown eco-freaks pushing their go green eco-crap in their daily news rags
la presse?
as in wine press?
LOL !!!
with kijiji in the mix I havent spent a nickel on advertising via print in many moons.
I like to tell people, every time I had *personal* involvement or knowledge of a story in print, they ALWAYS got it wrong. every time. roughly a dozen times, every time.
Finally got around to canceling my Ottawa Citizen subscription yesterday.
After Glavin and McGregor this past month, I just can’t stomach it anymore.
I’ll miss the newspapers…I use them for vermi-composting.
Even in little burgs like Burnaby, we are down to just one local, which was little more than an advert carrying nuisance! First they stopped the editorial and commentary page, which, to my way of thinking was the only portal on what the readers were thinking, which was usually the opposite of their editorial position, and even then, they were more interested in pushing the leftist cant.
People may not realize that La Presse was/is the biggest newspaper in Montreal (owned by Paul Desmarais’s Power Corporation btw). This is a rather big deal.
