Excellent and thank you for taking the time to ask questions to the Globe, many of us have.

Excellent article. Let’s hope the special rapporteur also sees fit to examine what is responsible behaviour of mainstream media in this respect, particularly the Globe and Global, the main beneficiaries of the leaked material.

I had been asking myself some of those questions as well. It’s all too cloak and dagger. Namely, I think we need to follow the money here. The Globe and Mail, as I expect will come out should RCMP do its due diligence and investigate throughly, will have been discovered to have indeed paid this anonymous leaker quite a bit of money for the leaks. The paper obviously didn’t wish to answer your questions which would seem to indicate that it has lots to hide.

Yesterday’s hearings produced this from a former CSIS intelligence officer: Stanton said that the media reporting on the leaks have "embellished" the intelligence to attach "nobility to it" and that when the dust settles, Canadians may find that the leaker is not an important intelligence official, but is likely to be someone using the leaks to further "an agenda."

More importantly Stanton and others said the leaker does not appear to have the full picture and that Governments since Mulroney have been given warnings about China, no single government is to blame for any inaction. They all are. And that media handling of this current issue has been inappropriate. I We don’t have the full picture yet.

The author once again concerned about leaks instead of Trudeau's refusal to answer the questions. What did he know and when! No balance to this author's opinions.
