What ? The Liberal Party of Canada does'nt like a biased media ? What the Hell is the C.B.C. then ? When it was announced that Harper won his majority, Peter Mansbridge looked into the cameras as if somebody had just shot his mother. Yeah, the morning after the Conservative majority, I saw soldiers on my street corner !!! ( EYEROLL ).
Mike did nothing wrong,he was doing his job by informing Canadians that the leader of the Lieberal party could not speak or understand the language of the vast majority of this country.The Lieberals tried to hide this but they could only get away with it for so long.....Geezus,Dion makes Don Chretien sound like less of an idiot....No small task there..........Anyway......BUH BYE Lieberals.......FOREVER......HAHAHAHAHAHHHA......:D
At least Jabba the Hutt was appointed by Harper as a Tory senator, so we don't have to listen to his shill nonsense. You know CBC always gets accused of having a Liberal bias, but at least CBC journalists aren't shills like Pamela Wallin and Mike Duffy.
Good Bye Duffy. Maybe we can get a non biased reporter to help inform us about politics in the country. We need senate reform as much as we need non-partisan reporters to inform us with the facts. Poor PEI.
but if you actually saw the video, hes right, dion cant speak english, and he's also right that him not being able to speak english properly disadvantages him against harper, I dont like harper or the conservative party at all, but dion could never have been pm in canada
It's too bad. If not for this one, isolated incident, Stephane Dion would have ridden the wave of "Dion-mania!", which swept Canada in the lead-up to the election, right into 24 Sussex Drive.
it really bothers me how people are so quick to judge and do not even think about things on their own for a second, including the original reporters who did the interview.
LISTEN TO WHAT DION WAS SAYING. IT MAKES PERFECT SENSE. THE REPORTER DID NOT AT ANY TIME SPECIFY SINCE WHEN HE WOULD BE P.M.
yes he said now....but since when!!!!!!
dion was copmletley right. its just the ignorant ctv conservative hicks that don't know english.
This election coverage by duffy and CTV is what made me lose all respect for CTV. Their blatant attempts at influencing voters under guise of impartiality has lost them all their credibility, Mike Duffy is a joke. He used his position to bypass more election spending laws. What I don't understand is how can people still believe anything that comes out of the mouth of a conservative
I can agree with a journalist having political bias but they should let the Canadian public know who they support. What I dont agree with is a WHOLE NETWORK that is obviously tory owned and operated. The whole network across the country is tory and they should be called on it and charged with campaign contributions to the tory party. The CBC leans toward Liberal and NDP but hey, that represents over 64% of Canadians where the CTV only represents approx 36% Canadians. BOYCOTT CTV!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't really care about the fact that Duffy was a Tory all along. Let's not kid ourselves: journalists have political opinions. It'd be impossible not to given their line of work. Duffy is hardly the only one "guilty" of political bias.
What bugged me about Duffy was his overall dullness as a reporter and the fact that he was incapable of controlling his guests. Tom Clarke and Graham Richardson are miles ahead of him in journalistic capabilities.
Mike Duffy you,ve brought Canadian media down to the level of Fox News In America.............you are truefully a shamefull human being...........only plus side of all this is that you or the Harper government wont live too long!
Listen people, don't kid yourselves. Duffy promised the Tories biased coverage from day one of the election and he delivered. What did he get for it? A pew in the Senate.
He is so arrogant, it's just vulger. And this senate appointment. It's a do nothing job, and he'll just be a mouthpiece for the Tories. He hasn't lived in PEI for 30 years. Oh yeah, he has a house there. Only in Canada.
Seems like anyone who has the gumption to stand up to the Harper Conservatives ALWAYS gets railed on, especially by people like MIke Duffy. Us NFLDers can tell you 1st hand what it's like to get screwed over by Harper & all his cronies in Ottawa.
I'm damn sick & tired of 'Harper Nation' already, when is enough enough?!?!
Good Bye Duffy. Maybe we can get a non biased reporter to help inform us about politics in the country. We need senate reform as much as we need non-partisan reporters to inform us with the facts. Duffy's Blue Sweater Vest is showing, Poor PEI.

Clearly Stephane Dion doesn't have a command of the English language. News anchors aren't allowed to have an opinion?
Three things can be said about Mr.Dion.
1- His English is weak.
2- He didn't comprehend the question, and it was stated in simple enough terms. English wasn't holding him back, though I will say it was probably nerves. Clearly not a good enough public speaker to be PM.
3- His latest actions have proven him to be a person of weak character, and easily manipulated.
What you fail to realize is I am not defending Dion, I could care less about the Liberals, but trying to say that Mike Duffy spinning a interview from his own organization that placed the question "What would you do as Prime Minister?" with no qualifiers, such as "Had you been elected..." or at least rephrasing it as "Would you do anything differently than the current Prime Minister?" is plainly a loaded question. Some people are always going to harp on those with french accents, regardless.
It wasnt a loaded question. Truth is no PM, Prez etc could have prevented the crisis we are in. Dion, Iggy Rae, Layton, none of them would make Canada or any other country better of during this. Like saying would you have prevented and earthquake?
What happened Tuesday was the old "election rule"....Lets vote for the least incompetent candidate. But, imagine this for a second...If a French television station in Quebec had done the same thing to Harper, the rest of Canada would have said that those damn Quebecers are shit disturbers and they are not real Canadians. So, politics is not a fair game. In fact, it is the dirtiest game you will ever play in your lifetime.
ATV and CTV, conveniently forgot the first interview Dion gave, in which Steve Murphy interrupted him excessively (much more than Jack Layton) and during which Dion responded clearly, calmly, and diplomatically in spite of Steve's many interruptions. The FIRST question of the 2nd interview was very poorly worded and Stephane was merely trying to get a clarification on the question. CTV, by showing what it promised not to, manipulated voters ("we owe it to you") and stuck it to Mr. Dion.

Duffy is a pig, literally, and figuratively. He knows that he is distorting our democracy with childishness and stupidity, but he has no conscience. As long as it advances his cause, the means justify the ends. Just like a conservative. Short sighted, pig headed, ugly, and downright foolish.
I don't speak french. I wish I did. But Mr. Dion for all his sincerity is an incapable communicator in English. We live in a country that has for decades demanded that its Prime Ministers be bilingual. Remember Joe Who (a.k.a. Clark) speaking french? He was a disaster. Well we now have Mr. Dion en anglais. Mr. Duffy was right. The Dion interview was indescribably bad.
Right answer: Duffy's always been a lapdog to the Conservatives. He's always been chummy with Mulrony, Shifty Steve's "advisor". Some "journalist"... "Good news...": wink, wink. When did he graduate from the National Enquirer School of Journalism again? Hey Mike, do us all a favour and go work for FOX News.
The interview clearly demonstrated that Stephane Dion has difficulty comprehending English. The fact that you couldn't get Mike Duffy's name correct would suggest you have the same problem as Monsieur Dion . . .
scott, what is it that you remember exactly? something you read in an alberta history textbook? something off ctv? canwest? and who is this 'we' that is so 'nice' to allow non-english people to remain in canada?
