Had the man hugged or kissed his children at the school gates, the same newspapers would probably be screaming "PAEDOPHILE!!" and making even more meaningless noise.

Indeed Dogscoff, I was thinking the same,,,,,
And don't even imagine what could have happened when he kissed his kid goodbye, Canada would be in an political crisis by now. And the US would have gathered his military forces at their Northern border to free those Canadian kids from that maniac.........

It all makes perfect sense to me.
Tomorrow's headline:

MAN BITES DOG

Sensational!

I've read that typically media seems to be controlled by corporate interests and will generally try to depict the government in a negative light.

This is, supposedly, because it is in corporate interests to keep government small and out of the way.

So it would make sense that they would feed us nonsense like this business with Harper and his son rather than target actual numbers that truly affect Canada.
