This morning the issue of the “support our troops” decals has become front and centre on a national level. The boycott of Toronto is growing. And in an effort to stifle the support for our troops, the CTV has made a mockery of the question as indicated by the image below which shows their poll today.
The way this is poll is worded is quite misleading.
The issue today is not to question the use of decals on city vehicles for “causes” but for our troops. Our troops are NOT a cause.
The fact is that with such an ambiguous question, I myself would vote no. But if you change the word causes to troops, you can guarantee that the results would be far different.
Shame on you CTV.

I saw this for what it was and didn’t vote – they will use this to push their own agenda. The next “story” will be how rainbows aren’t permitted on city owned vehicles but the yellow ribbons are.

Whoever doesn’t support our troops should be rounded up and put somewhere so that the suicide bombers headed for our country know which area to attack first.

What else can we expect from the good folks that bring us the Globe and Mail?

I emailed CTV news desk a couple of hours ago to ask they take the poll down.
Not holding my breath.
At least Toronto city council heard us loud and clear and agreed to keep the decals on municipal vehicles to support our troops.

I checked the CTV news polls. There is a new poll on lotteries. I checked their link to previous polls which they always provide. The poll on decals is not listed there. Interesting.
