Trudeau's scandals make Chretien's look like amateur hour.

As they should and Americans will never give up their country for America's hat

He said it well.

Chrétiens’ opinion is correct

janell538.bsky.social•41 days ago

As it should be for any other country or American businesses! So many are lacking in integrety and ethics. If you have no loyalty to customers or their current situations, why should they be loyal to your business? It's not like your an actual person, oh, wait, that's right the SC fixed that.

Says the paper that endorsed Stephen Harper.

What's your point?

squamishviews.bsky.social•41 days ago

Unlike anything Poilievre says this piece by Chrétien is brilliant!

kersha27369.bsky.social•41 days ago

only totally delusional Americans, whose media has lied to them, think anyone wants to be American

God, let's not say this true stuff. Why piss'em off more?

People should ignore what the orange blob says.

Amen to Former PM Chretien. And in fairness, Harper too.

It’s incredibly unfortunate our current govt is so hobbled.

Too bad that this excellent article is behind a paywall.
The G&M should seriously consider making this article a free access.

sushicombo.bsky.social•41 days ago

There are browser extensions that bypass paywalls.

Too bad grocery stores make you pay for what you want. Sorry, but G&M is a business, not a gov't service. If it was a gov't service, nobody would read it.

mrfumblethumbs.bsky.social•41 days ago

A good point, but I was only suggesting making a single, significant article open, not the entire site.

d-cym.bsky.social•41 days ago

Fair enough, but somebody is wanting pretty much every article the Globe posts to be made free.

off-grid-chris.bsky.social•41 days ago

I take your point. A quick google search and Chretien’s letter is freely available elsewhere e.g. https://www.livemint.com/news/world/give-your-head-a-shake-former-canadian-pm-jean-chretienas-lambasts-donald-trump-over-canada-51st-us-state-claim/amp-11736648583270.html

An excellent point, Chris! Thank you for the link.
The G&M sees itself as Canada's national newspaper, so it might be nice for it to offer such significant articles more widely.
By the way, I subscribe to the G&M, so saw the article when it first came out.
