ok, folks, let's remember the charter of News Trust...is it journalism? or is it not? This is a report of an event but it is a balanced story? No. No attempt is made to understand or credit any other viewpoint than the author's. No attempt is made to understand that a country, any country can legitimately restrict entrance to its borders if the person has a criminal record...and that is what she has folks. The bottom line is that this is not good journalism for the above quoted reason. Polemic perhaps but not journalism...and therefore indicative of what passes for journalism today in many quarters. Many of you will not want to read further... If Canada has no misdemenor statue (sic) that is not our problem. This person has been arrested multiple times--what guarantee does Canada have that she wasn't arrested more and for other things? And as for searching her items...um, standard police policy throughout the world...not the fault of Bush. She was identified because she had been arrested many times, not for WHY she was arrested.
