Really infantile, sophomoric piece. Right out of Micheal Kinsley or some other developmentally arrested Lib Whiner.

Why are Canadians so irritated by O'Reilly? He may not be their cup of tea, but their attitude of tolerance should be able to adjust for him. Makes me wonder who has the thicker skin.

I just can't believe they pay for this crap (which is by far the stupidest article I've read this year)

Sounds like something written by a seventh grader for a Junior High newspaper.

OK, so my computer gives me the old "internet explorer has encountered a problem and must shut down" routine when I log on to this article.

Could someone please post the author's email address?

It's all about the politics. The Canadian MSM doesn't want any voices on the air that aren't affiliated with the liberal government.

Canada only recently allowed Fox to be broadcast in their country. I guess this is their answer.

Did the Toronto Star steal this article from some junior high newspaper? Speaking of junior high, I learned a vocabulary word in 7th grade English class that I thought I'd never use, but here's the perfect opportunity--"sophomoric".

You can tell how threatened they all are because this is the 4th hack-job article by the Star and the CBC has done an entire documentary slamming FNC (not to mention the follow-up segments)

FOX news was recently allowed into Canada- their MSM is freaking out over it.

Just you?

They are, after all Canadians.

It's the global warming screwing up their beer and hockey ice. ;)

I'll second that. I'm embarrassed that I read as far as I did - A complete waste of time and, in the print version, perfectly good toilet paper.

No wonder Canadians are depressed.

They are just like our so called big three and cannot stand to have any competition.
