The National Post and that radio station is in Canada?

“The manager of CFRB stated that the show was cancelled because of low ratings” may very well be true.

Speaking of Canada, had you heard that Bill Ayers was turned back at the border not too long ago?

“In other anti-Ayers news, Ill. state senator Larry Bromke (R-Springfield) wants to ban “admitted terrorists” from teaching at Illinois colleges because he is outraged that Illinois taxpayers are paying his salary.

“If we had a known pedophile, an admitted pedophile who had not been convicted, but an admitted pedophile, any school would be outraged to have that individual teaching kindergarten,” Bomke said. “So why would we want an admitted terrorist, an unrepentant terrorist, teaching kids at a university?” “

I suppose we in far off Northern Ontario might take too much for granted. Naturally, just a spit from Upper Michigan we think these things are well known. Much of America pretty remote from the UP though in some ways. The National Post started up ten years ago. It was felt that the heavyweight Globe and Mail and the Toronto Star were inclined to be a little, well 'er liberally inclined. Conrad Black owned it. He stepped down and the much respected Asper family, though liberal persons then owned it. Hopefully they were to continue the general flow of thoughtful conservatism Some might think that it has changed to a little left since.(chuckle).

CFRB Toronto is however controlled from Astral Media Radio in Montreal. It is am radio. Also an icon of veteran Canadian radio.

Yep, I learned of Bill Ayres. Any sneaking sympathy for him, because he has gained some eminence in education, went when I read of the bomb. A cruel, wicked , cunning thing, to splatter human beings. I think the Canadians may have been under the gun and like to maintain they are consistent. It was they who turned back Clifford Irving, who claimed the figures of the holocaust were more likely 300,000 not six million. Irving was only a child during WW2 and has served time for his historical revision. They turned back Rev. Phelps from the United States. Phelps does deal in hate but the "wrong" targets. Gays for example. By that criteria, poor, misunderstood Bill, deserved to be rejected.

If you go to my profile, you will see where I got my information about Adolf Hitler. I just posted it.
