With Friends like these....

A caller using the telephone at the campaign head quarters of Liberal Chris Axworthy calls into a live talk radio show featuring a conservative party candidate and accuses the Maurice Vellacott (CPC candidate) of the sexual assault of a church secretary and the Globe and Mail buries it on page six but leads with Harper’s lead takes a hit. I have over slept and have not had enough coffee to function at top speed but it appears that the Toronto Star does not find this story newsworthy.

Okkkkkaaaaay.

You expected Canada's self-proclaimed "national" newspaper to lead with an outright admission its friends and benefactors are total sleaze ... and that they demonstrated it yet again in western Canada?

Tsk. Reality check.

PM - oddly enough the G&M did take the time to come out and endorse Stephen Harper and the CPC....though I suppose old habits die hard.

Lance, there is hope for some of us - after all I live in the heart of the belly of the beast aka as Bill Graham's riding and I noticed. Of course, one more liberal victory and I'll be heading west to join the separatists.
