This paper is stunningly selective about who it will report about, as it chooses its narrative about the USA. 

Here are names not reported in this paper: Debra Clayton and Edward Andersson. Both cops have been in the news in America, both shot in recent days. The Globe and Mail has ignored them. 

Those two cops SHOULD be on posters for what the G&M has been pushing for in its US reporting in recent years. Both cops were reputed to be caring cops who would not use violent force as their first response against a suspect. Officer Clayton faced a black suspect at Walmart a couple days ago. The cop, a mother of two, was promptly slaughtered by the suspect, who wore body armor and kept shooting into her body after she collapsed. Andersson, a male cop, was shot twice helping out at an apparent road rage scene. The shooter then busied himself ramming the unconscious cop's bloody head into the pavement. 

Why the silence, G&M? Afraid to give readers needed context regarding caring US cops?
