OTTAWA, January 28, 2002 (LSN.ca) - Today’s LifeSite special report carries an insightful article written by Focus on the Family Canada President Darrel Reid. In it Reid points out that “while most media commentators have persuaded themselves that all Canadians share their secular bias, this view often diverges widely from reality. In truth, many grassroots Canadians share concerns about issues no longer in vogue for our reporters and broadcasters.”

  Reid identifies the causes of faith, life and family on which social conservatives come together and wonders at the oddity of politicians who attempt to attract social conservatives without offering anything substantial. The article was first published in the Globe and Mail January 23 and is reprinted by LifeSite with permission of the author.
