The Global and Mail is about as mainstream as Canadian media get. (I spent six months in Ontario one night.)

I actually like the Globe and Mail. They tend to support the establishment view, ( Capital Punishment, no, Nationalized Health Care, yes, yada, yada, yada) but their tone is distinctly more adult and their outlook much broader than just about any American outlet. The Boston Globe and New York Times in particular.

I can’t read the New York Times or Boston Globe, not on mere ideological grounds, but on the ground of intellectual coherence and a somewhat pedantic and exceeding boring literary style. The G&M otoh is almost always delightful, even though I rarely find myself in agreement with their views.

The NYT and BG deserve to go out of business, they provide overpriced shoddy goods.
