Opportunism is a new term to me. What is the country coming to? Little Red Riding Hood is heading to the library with a basket of food for her grandmother.
There was a time when Haiti was front page news. Then, quite suddenly, it stopped. There was a magic moment when it appeared just for one day on the front page of The Globe. The story was a very misleading one about how the Haiti schools are helping the children deal with the tragedy. It neatly failed to point out this was one school, for rich kids, and that most Haitian children have no schools at all.
There has been almost no dicussion of why the US aid (and some others) consisted so largely of soldiers.
