Iwon鈥檛 even get into the whole Don Cherry controversy because, try as I might, I couldn鈥檛 find the whole tape. I do know that media outlets did edit his words from part of his rant in such a way to make it sound worse than it was. That is just plain wrong and is dishonest reporting. I would like to find the whole speech and then maybe I could comment.

In the days following the Oct. 21 federal election, the results graphically showed that the Liberal Party did very poorly west of the Ontario-水果视频 border. In fact, they didn鈥檛 do all that great in Quebec either. For a federal party to be shut out of Saskatchewan and Alberta states loudly that their message is not going over well in those two provinces. The Liberals also lost seats in 水果视频 and B.C. The cries of western separation came out loud and clear. There are rallies and conferences planned all over Alberta to discuss the steps toward separation.
