Why do I waste money on this paper?
Apr. 29th, 2011 09:59 amWe have two local newspapers. The Province, which is not much better than a gossip rag, and the Sun, which is slightly better, and provides some actual news of substance. It's not the Globe and Mail, but it's better than nothing. We have a subscription to the Sun.
We also have a federal election on MONDAY. This is a huge deal. This is IMO the most important thing that is facing Canadians at the moment.
This morning's front page had info on the Canucks and the royal wedding. The biggest part was devoted to the Canucks. Whut????!!!! The election related news didn't come until page seven. I would expect this of the Province, but I was hoping for better from the Sun. I think I may have to cough up the extra dough for a Globe and Mail subscription even though in reading the Globe and Mail, one might think that Canada doesn't go any further west than Ontario.
