This new Candy Cane & Pink Popsicles approach to commenting in the Globe & Mail is tedious – plus the new shortened comment space, circumvents anyone with a serious bent for critique from truly stating their case complete with citations.

Further, it takes the 'non-bias' element out of Globe commenting, thereby creating a perfect situation for some acting-out in either bias, sour grapes or both – therefore every single comment that I am expected to rate will simply be given top marks – gratis.

If the Globe thinks so little of its engaged paying customers – then the Globe will not notice the loss of many loyal patrons.

Therefore...

. . . Canada -- comment your little heart out because everyone gets an uncensored free pass-the-post with the Forest - Creature..!!
