The Toronto Star is probably a socialist-leaning newspaper (like a lot of American rags are). Therefore, GMMAC inserted "red" to create "Red Star," which is a communist symbol. From wikipedia:

The five-pointed red star (a pentagram without the inner pentagon) is a symbol of Communism and Socialism and represents the five fingers of the worker's hand, as well as the five continents (as traditionally counted). A lesser known suggestion is that the five points on the star were intended to represent the five social groups that would lead the nation to communism. In no particular order, they are: the youth (the future generations), the military (to protect and defend socialism), industrial workers (labourers), agricultural workers (peasantry), and the intelligentsia (to criticize and to improve the ideas and practices of life in order to attain communism). In general, it was the emblem, symbol, and signal that indicated the truth of the new order under the rule and guidance of the Communist Party.

Now that is one effective picture. You should photo caption it " Leaf's Blower" and send it to the publicity office of the team.

I mean don't you think that he is just sooooooo cute!

"The Toronto Star is probably a socialist-leaning newspaper"

To put it mildly.
The vile red Star is our largest circulation 'newspaper' - though like all old media that's now dropping nicely - based, not surprisingly, in Canada's largest & most 'diverse' urban area.

It's the de facto mouthpiece of the Trudeauite left wing of the Liberal Party & big labor but will quite often come out in support of the openly socialist NDP ... although generally only between elections.
It's relentlessly politically correct & stridently pro feminist to such a degree that, if it weren't for it's obsessive lunch-bucket-oriented sports coverage - likely few, if any, white heterosexual males would still read the damned thing.

Picture the NY Slimes ... and then some.
As example, back in the 1930's, it dutifully re-printed all of the Slimes' infamous Walter Duranty's 'stories' praising Joe Stalin & outright denying the very real genocide then on-going in communist-occupied Ukraine.

Have your bookstores started selling Mark Steyn's "America Alone" yet?

[GMMAC]

Somewhat hard question to answer since Indigo operates under 4 or 5 different names & enjoys damned close to a monopoly of the book market up here.
Availability is likely more the issue and how well it's being stocked in stores nationally, I couldn't tell you.

However, it appears to be both available & doing quite well on Indigo's website.
Note positive reviews by articulate conservatives outnumber the negative one by an apparently near illiterate commie moron by a ration of 8 to 1.

BTW, before the bashers of ALL Canadians start up...

Canada gave us Hazel Mae.

I can't possibly bash ALL Canadians.

[GMMAC]

... Mae OK but ix-nay on mentioning eter-pay ennings-jay, eh. ;)

Besides, whatever 'questionable' contributions Canada's made to your msm can all be reasonably attributed to the unfortunate influence of border town Buffalo New York which, after all, blessed America with both Wolf Blitzer AND Tim Russert.

Brokeback Hockey Rink

Boston connection: I looked up the book on amazon.com and found that (orig book) takes place in Cambridge (...why not
Provincetown...?) If they had kept to the orig. script
they could have maybe cast David Scondras and Barney
Frank?

>>Publisher's Weekly: Two gay men, one a New Age chiropractor, the other an editor at an ultra-hip Italian art magazine, live happily together in Cambridge, not too far from Harvard...When Scot arrives at their home, these two generous, good-hearted men discover that they have a prepubescent Quentin Crisp on their hands...This heartwarming tale nobly defines and describes a potent, realistic new configuration of contemporary American family

(though had they case Scondras in the film they may have been prevented; I'm not sure how his court case came out but I
don't think he'd be allowed to hang around with juveniles?
from sweetness & light--for those unfamiliar with Scondras:
"Lawrence Police arrested Scondras at about 1:15 a.m. (Oct '06). Investigators said a sergeant pretending to be a 15-year-old boy had several sexually explicit email exchanges with Scondras."
