Will The Toronto Star Insult France?

Will the Toronto Star insult the French President for a diversion or a photo op as they have done with our own Prime Minister on his visit to Haiti?

Iceman, are you suggesting a double standard?

Well, if the Toronto Star won't insult France, there are any number of contributors to the Blogging Tories prepared to pinch hit for them.

dupmar,

you don't see a double standard?

The US and France sent top level visitors to assess and the Tstar does not write a word, our PM visits and it is a photo op and distraction?

Any balance from Toronto?

My comment wasn't related to Haitian relief efforts and Canadian or French presence thereto, but rather a sarcastic reference to a denunciatory zeal of all things French by certain blogging tory contributors, tied to domestic rather than international concerns

Dupmar,

So it was unrelated to the subject of the post.

Do you think it is possible to be against the politics being deployed in Quebec by the political class (threats to leave, demand equal status, money)and be supportive of the fellow citizens living in Quebec?
