I flabbergasted that you apparently think it is the duty of every loyal Canadian to support government policy when outside of the this country.

What a world it would be if all we heard and read in International news was the official position of the government in power.
Where did I say support? I said presenting a united front. This include a variety of things including not saying anything regarding that issue.

And, yes, that's the analogy i'm making. You can change the employer to Canada then.

I'm attacking your point of free speech being taken away, and I'm saying it's not.

Now you are switching to "International News = Government in Power news". Where did I say that? Did I suggest that the government put a gag order on all information leaving this country?

I'm suggesting that people in power that are representing Canada should represent a united front to the world. If Mulclair doesn't agree with a policy, fight it at home and keep it shut outside. If he wants to swing the policy over to his side (environmental issues in this case), there are ways he could have done it and still presented a united front.
