Made the gov't look good. Ha! What the reporters failed to ask was "How is the industry doing this year?" My son has worked steadily since 1992 in this field. HE HAS HAD NO WORK THIS YEAR. That's how well the film industry is doing. Watch for more made up news by lackeys dependent on the gov't dole.<BR/>Last January there was BIG FANFARE about hotels being bought for the homeless. Why, goodness me, they even bought one from an HA. So, where is this housing now?

The new media - blogs, pod casts, etc.- are trampling the established old school media and those who advertise in them.<BR/><BR/>Example: At one time I uses to listen to 'NW all the time, now only 1 hour at the most and never if I don't like what is on.<BR/><BR/>At one time I used to subscribe to the Sun, now I feel the paper is terribly biased against the NDP, I do not buy it any more.<BR/><BR/>Now, I read at least 7 blogs (&comments)every day; yours, David Berners, Stephen Rees, Bula's, Rail for the Valley, Schreck's, the hook, the Straight and others.<BR/><BR/>As the old media collapses in a heap of obsolescence, the new media makes getting the message out harder and more expensive.<BR/><BR/>That said, $19 million for your media friends is not pocket change but maybe just a legal way to enrich political friends at the expense of the taxpayer.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
