Interesting that you would mention it, since I just recently read an article in Vancouver-based Adbusters about how consolidated the city's media has become under CanWest, and how aggressively the corporation has pushed to keep it that way. I'm normally skeptical of Adbusters, but the report was comprehensive and scathing of the tactics employed to keep CanWest journalists on a tight leash.

If anything, some time in Canada will abolish any illusions I may carry.
