Note on op-ed about Ignatieff

Rodriquez, the Liberal party's Canadian Heritage Critic, wrote an op-ed in the National Post today, 05/11 on Ignatieff that included the sentence "He lived the life of an artist, with all the financial insecurity that comes with it." Ignatieff comes from a rich and famous family and lived the life of a well-paid Harvard professor. He never had to bear the financial insecurity of an artist. If this statement of Rodriquez is an example of the truth of the rest of the op-ed and of other Liberal writings, then they are not worth reading. He also says that the Liberal vision is "a cultured Canada." Does that mean that we will be like France where every "cultured" married man has a mistress and they are famous for caving in to and appeasing dictators?
