[PEN-L:5109] Canadian Poll

[Ken Hanly <khanly@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

CBC reports a poll of Canadians shows that 57% favor sending
ground troops to Kosovo and
79% support the bombing. THe defence minister claims this
reflects Canadian values.
However, I think it also reflects that fact that the CBC has now
overtaken and surpassed CNN
in its role of promoting the NATO cause in the psychological
warfare that is going on.
    I find it absolutely exasperating that the few critical and
sensible analyses of the situation have appeared in the Globe and
Mail, Canada's right-wing national business newspaper, and
the National Post, another right-wing rag. Do other Canadians on
pen-l agree?
  Cheers, Ken Hanly
