No, I'm glad the original comment (equating the Canadian media with those
in the USSR) was posted here.  It gives us a chance to correct it. Some
Americans are so ignorant about Canada that we need every chance we can

who realize  that the world has a few free countries besides their own,
and that not all free countries are clones of theirs.)
