It’s too bad that newspapers

February 2, 2005 by Michael Boyle

It’s too bad that newspapers

don’t take their role of encouraging public debate more seriously. In fact they damage it by hiding articles behind a subscription barrier. Otherwise I could point Canadian readers to a very good article in today’s Globe and Mail by John Ibbitson that takes religious groups to task for essentially lying to the Canadian public as gay marriage becomes legal in this country. As it stands, you can only read the first two grafs, which hardly gets to the point.
