[Devils-list] CBC last night

[Jason Williams]

The CBC is disgustingly Libral which (unfortunately) is the majority government
right now.  If you listened to what Stockwell Day had to say, he is much closer
to the general sentiment of the public.  Unfortunately, he is the leader of
a "Western" party, and the (Liberal) population base of Ontario and Quebec will
NEVER vote for a Western Party...  Even though our standard of living is higher
than theirs, with much lower unemployment, and better health care.

If you want great hockey coverage, watch CBC.  If you want the voice of Canada,
well, you're screwed.
