Who pays for this blog? I receive no fees, considerations, etc. etc. for the posts on this blog nor do I have any plans to accept any. My salary is paid by Canwest Global Communications Corp. I work for that company as the Ottawa-based National Affairs Correspondent for Canwest News Service. The blog publishing platform used here is called Blogware and it's developed by Tucows Inc. of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. My use of Blogware should not be taken as an endorsement of that company. Like all Blogware users, I do not pay any fees for the use of this service. I participate in program. Google pays me some money and, for that, I give Google some space on this site to display ads. Google sells those ads and Google, not me, decides what advertising content you are seeing. I do not filter these ads and take no responsibility for them.

From the press release linked to:
"ONE OF THE Canadian military's FOUR C-17 ..."
OK, maybe my eyesight is worse than I thought ... but, are we talking about the same item?
I see caps on acronyms, on the word FOUR and, admittedly, I missed the offending "ONE OF THE ..."
My abject apologies.
I also see caps on titles of people, place names, etc.
Are you advising Ms. Oda's department to adopt e.e. cummings' style?
From Wiki: "Cummings' publishers and others have sometimes echoed the unconventional orthography in his poetry by writing his name in lower case and without periods."
As to boasting, how many times have we heard the mantra about Canada being "the best country in the world" and other forms of self-congratulatory statements, from all parties?
And since the Burmese (Myanmar, whatever they want to be called) government was, or still is, reluctant to open its doors to foreign aid, what would critics propose the government do? Start a war to have them accept our aid?
