The Globe and Mail: Good news for Canada: "We like us, we really like us, Canadians tell a major international survey. Pollster MICHAEL ADAMS reports on our surprising self-confidence"
This is a major shift. Canucks are gaining confidence and are feeling damn fine about who and what we are. Right on.

Columnists: "One likes to be positive. One doesn't want to appear to be overly critical. And so, those of us who live downtown say that we live downtown because we like living downtown. We don't go around saying that we live downtown because wild horses couldn't drag us out to live in the suburbs. That would only upset people who are fond of suburbs and who would no more live downtown than walk to a corner store. And anyway, it's not as if anyone's going to tear the suburbs down and start over. Just because they made a ghastly mistake."
