Solon,

Since this is the hypester's denunciation centre...

1. Are you a paid tout for the National Post?
2. Do you work there?
3. How often do you have lunch with Conrad Black? Barbara Ameil?
4. Ever had cigars and scotch with Michael Coren???

HA HA HA....

When I called the NP Canada's second place newspaper, I really meant to say second rate newspaper. I wasn't thinking that the globe and mail was ahead of it - Canada's top newspapers are:

1) The Northern Miner - a magazine devoted entirly to mining!!!
2) Frank Magazine - Canada's satirical press
3) Now Magazine - great local political coverage, lots of info on the music scene, and there's even ads for call girls and massage parlours in the back.
4) The Computer Paper.

I currently have a free subscription to the National Post, and I think I'm paying too much. I cancelled it once before, but they started sending it to me again.

IMO, their editorial writers don't have a clue. They may be Canada's best journalists, but if they are, it just shows how bad Canada's journalists really are. Personally, I don't think that Terrence Cocoran believes half the stuff he writes. Linda frum is mostly irrelevant. Her sister David Frum, who is supposedly some sort of intellectual, does not appear to capable of writing a column without making an logically inconsistent arguements or committing an argumentative fallacy.

I think you should stick to commenting on my other posts - you don't get me started on the National Post. HA HA HA

Regards,
John Sladek
