Give 'em a break. The Liberals in Canada have so eviscerated the military that they can have no military heroes and for the rest of the commonwealth the liberals are working to turn every province into a socialist dictatorship of the proletariat - and we know what that means - everyone is equally poor but the MPs and only if they are liberal.
So let them enjoy Conan O'Brien it may be the last bit of joy they get.

They did fine by inviting a talk show to come. It was a good idea to overcome some of the SARS legacy. It didn't make them look like hicks at all. It made them look pretty media savvy and confident.
What made them look like a bunch of losers is their gasping reversion to political correctness and second-guessing of themselves when the comedian made fun of...gasp...the main Canadian sacred cow.
By gasping and moaning and getting bent out of shape it made Toronto, and Canada, appear like weak, shifty, politically correct, humorless, dull, nincompoops. Conan didn't do that, liberal politicians did.

It's a funny thing, but when I hear the word "Conan," I automatically think, "the Barbarian." Interesting. The first thing I think of when I hear the word Conan is a proper name: Olivia d'Abo.
Just goes to show: there's no accounting for taste.

Adding insults to the injury, for most Australians Toronto isn't even in the Sydney league. Although Australia is similar to Canada as a regional power, Aussies regard Toronto as like Melbourne (a major Australian city nonetheless, but no international city like Sydney).
