Why are all of the news postings in here from government funded source, and no independent media?

The "government funded source" thing is Conservatives forgetting that Canada isn't like America: our 'government funded' stuff has an arms-length position like the CRTC and the RCMP. And while the former forgets its mandate, we all (should) remember that none of them serve at the express pleasure of any particular prime minister

... even the ones who want to run the country and can't take some hard questions from a media they don't control.
