My first comment got deleted.

Three points for the Globe and Mail editors in charge of the comments:

1) If you're going to have moderators going around and deleting comments they don't like, why have this Civil Comments in the first place?

2) Why have higher standards for the comments than for actual "news" and opinion pieces? Shouldn't it be the other way around?

3) So it's okay to call Trump and Netanyahu  "a couple of carny hucksters and low grifters looking for more suckers to reel in" but I say that Trudeau is a criminal who got suckered and that's beyond the pale?  What I'm trying to say is, your deletion policies make no sense.
