Are CTV and Global more conservative than the CBC ?

Not really, but they are more balanced and their news judgment is more in line with the views of ordinary Canadians. The main reason the CBC has fallen out of favour is that their producers suffer from a severe case of recto-cranial insertion; if the story doesn't involve a black lesbian single mother who's trying to save the whale from globalization they'll ignore it. They seem to think that the world doesn't exist outside of Ottawa, so nobody outside of Ottawa pays much attention to them.

FUNNY !!! - 'cause it's so true.
... but you left out any of: "abused", "now fighting deportation" and "courageously battling HIV" as well as the mandatory use of the word "victim" - as in "of heartless government social services cut-backs".
