I love George's interviews because he actually lets his guests talk... you get to hear their stories. Thats so rare in tv nowadays. For most journalists the interview is as much about them as it is about the issue their reporting on.

Jan Wong is one of Canada's most skilled journalists. Her 'Lunch With Jan Wong' series was a joy to read, and she didn't shirk at tough assignments, such as the seven part series in the Globe when she lived in a rundown one bedroom apartment while doing an undercover writeup on the working poor.

@PrometheanRunGood I began to think that the only racist comments acceptable in Canada are the ones against french canadians... Ask to Don Cherry... Peace! :)

@PrometheanRunGood Merci! I really like your comment! But I was wondering what would have happened if a journalist from... let's say: (Le Devoir) had written that, if this Gill guy commited this horrible crime, it's simply because he was an anglophone who grew up in an anglophone family. I think this journalist would have lost all his credibility and... his job. But, strangly, it's not the case of Miss Wong.

I like to apologize for this woman on behalf of Chinese-Canadians. She is a product of the red guard generation taught not to think in nuisance and compassionately but in extremes and to find targets in those who don't share their POV. Again I am ashamed she is one of us and my apologies especially to our French-Canadian countrymen.

Have you read the book "Red China Blues"?She thought (at the time) that she was helping her student friend be a better person and communist and the punishement would be the same as hers for reading Western Books, ie, a stern talking to. She wasn't a cruel person, it was only later she found out what a terrible thing it was.

Saying sorry is better than NOT saying sorry!

@melonbarmonster

The book "Red China Blues" may change your mind on this woman. And "Beijing Confidential" has the full story. She's truly sorry.

@amandaberesford nope as I couldnt care less if she spoke french, mandarin or fucking swahili. Shes a chinese cunt and needs to head back to beijing sucking the brains off fishheads.

[amandaberesford]

Sadly, you're only making her opinion seem correct.

[quantumdude]

@amandaberesford Those were accurate actually. She is after all a disgusting little fishhead with chopsticks that would put any beaver to shame. Pretty sure also that her cunt is so dry, it reeks of octopuss as soon as she enters a room.

@blader45bc come say that to my face gooklover, well hang you from a tree and burn your sorry ass while youre screaming vive le québec libre.
