So much for the stereotype of Canadians being polite, calm people.

On Thursday, following a debate in Montreal between Canadian party leaders in the upcoming parliamentary election, one of the reporters went stark raving mad to the extent that he went on an extended rant for over 5 minutes in the press room following the debate. Stuart Benson of the Hill Times couldn't control his outrage that one of the few independent news outlets in Canada, Rebel News, was allowed to ask questions of the party leaders.

Many suspect that Liberal candidate Carney performed so poorly in the debate that he was DESPERATE to NOT face the media later so Stuart Benson, on purpose, performed the role of unhinged screamer in order to get the media scrum cancelled and then blame it on Rebel News.

Stuart Benson of the Hill Times is a paid liar. He must tell lies to live in a big house
Stuart must do whatever the gubmint dictates, including releasing his inner stark raving lunatic on command.
Mission accomplished, the news conferance was cancelled

Stuart’s only other employment option is to sell shoes at the mall

Up in Canada they are even MORE blatant about paying off Regime Media with government money than down here. Down here they try to hid it such as via absurdly high subscriptions to Politico which are conveniently sold to people in the government. Up in Canada they just hand out government money directly to the media and that includes the Hill Times where Tantrum Boy Stuart Benson works.

Hoser or hose-head is a slang term originating in Canada that is used to reference or imitate Canadians.[1]

Yeah, Stuart Benson is very aware that he's out of a job if other media outlets can dispel the propaganda he's paid to write.

NO leftist is ever “calm” OR “polite”, and the country doesn’t matter.
Exposure is the worst thing that can happen to the left.

And yet he'd probably say he believes in free speech.
