What Fresh Hell found a discrepancy in the
transcript of the speech by the Prime Minister that caused such
an uproar. He also found a change at the CBC transcript. He

The PMO’s office has done [...]

I posted on my stubborness trying to install DSL here Ha, it got worse. I got some incorrect advice

yesterday, but if this comment is true, then grrrrrr.
Apparently Bill O’ Reilly has a radio show on the Fox
Network. Apparently he said on that show that a recent poll
says 80% of Canadians think the [...]

My thanks to everyone who let me know that lawyer story was
