Big Brother Wal-Mart

CBC is reporting that Wal-Mart in Quebec spied on union organizers prior to closing its only unionized store in Quebec. Which is illegal under labour law in Quebec. Ah say it ain't so. Which is exactly what the Canadian CEO of Wal-Mart said. Lets see two exposes on bad boy Wal-Mart this week by Radio Canada. The other was about Wal-Mart using Child Labour. Nice to see that there is some investigative journalism going on at MotherCorp.

That's what journalism is supposed to be about muckracking and investigative journalism, the values of a liberal/left media. The ones the right wing fails to provide and hates when anyone else does. Oh unless the muck flinging is against their political enemies.
