Westerners lose their principles awfully quickly

The Star does a roundup of editorial opinion from across the country. It shows outrageous hypocricy in the Western press.

The Vancouver Sun has no problem with Emerson but objects to Fortier.

The Calgary Herald crows that the new Ministry is "a break with the brokerage politics recently associated with the Liberals. ... It is a parliamentary force to inspire confidence."

Indeed, reading the sampling, apart from the Lethbridge Herald, you have to get to St. Catherines before there is any objection to Emerson's floor-crossing.

I wonder - what did all these Western papers say about Stronach? About Brison? (Miserably, most of these papers are on the canada.com web site which make searching incredibly difficult).
