Gimbol's diatribe and screed

Lies and the liars that tell them (the CBC)

Lets start with the story of how the Conservative government is going to eliminate the census long form.
Its BS.
The government isn't getting rid of it, only making it voluntary....the really bizarre part of the reporting on this story is that now the Communist Broadcasting Corp. is running the clip of Layton saying that the government should compromise by only making the long form voluntary.

The purchase of the F35.
We got signed on to this and the bidding started when Chretien was PM. We signed up as part of a group of nations to have a common platform, which makes the plane less expensive to maintain and field. You guys should Google "economy of scale" sometime. The CBC should also be asking Art Eggleton, U Dosanj, or the finance minister of the day Paul Martin, how much was budgeted for this work then.

Iggy's bus trip.
When the guy that wants to be PM cause it would look so good on his CV, says he benefited from a public education, and the CBC goes mute, my first thought is why do you guys get over a billion a year in subsidy to compete with networks that don't?

Wikileaks
Frankly at first I was pissed that you guys where behaving like a rabid dog over the release of these unsubstantiated reports, now there is part of me that desires to see the moment when the families of those soldiers murdered by the Taliban name the CBC in a class action lawsuit.
Perhaps you could provide some balance by reporting on civilian deaths caused by the Taliban? Or how about reporting on war crimes committed by the Taliban?
Perhaps how the majority of illicit drugs, the same type that get used in "safe injection sites" are produced under the duress of the Taliban, then sold by the Taliban, the profits of which the Taliban use to procure weapons
