Michael OLeary, are you referring to Granatstein or Leishman? I hope you are talking about Leishman because Ganatstein definitely offered up suggestions on how improvement could be accomplished. As far as I‘m concerned, Leishman is just plugging Granatstein‘s book and giving an "update" of sorts as to how Pratt and Martin are essentially carrying on the legacy of their predecessors. I would much rather see reporters writing this stuff over an anti-CF article.
Edit update: Ok, I re-read your post and it is obvious you are talking about Leishman. Even so, at least he is condemning the government‘s failures in respect to the CF rather than praising them.
