TORONTO – It was an “up your nose with a rubber hose” response to the organizers of the “Olympiade at Gaie Paree’’, to FIFA’s directors – both currying favour with “L’empereur Macron”. They had conspired to humiliate Canada’s Soccer programme and “our Ladies of the beautiful game” to ensure that France might progress to the next level in the tournament. Objective reached! Shame on our [spineless] Canadian officials and our national Media cowering under the accusations of cheating levelled at Canada and its athletic programme.
TORONTO – Confesso di aver provato un profondo senso di soddisfazione e gioia quando il Canada ha ottenuto la vittoria per 2-1 contro il paese ospitante, la Francia, nel primo turno di calcio femminile alle Olimpiadi francesi, il 28 luglio. Leggi di più altrove nelle nostre pagine. Le Donne del Calcio in Canada hanno riacceso le loro speranze di avanzare al turno successivo, ma purtroppo solo in modo molto debole…
TORONTO – I confess to experiencing deep sense of satisfaction and delight when Canada scored its 2-1 victory against the host country, France, in the first round of Women’s Soccer at the French Olympics, July 28. Read about it in Corriere Canadese’s pages. The Ladies of Soccer in Canada resuscitated their hopes of advancing to the next round, but only so tenuously.
TORONTO – Brazen and in-your-face, that sums up the international diplomatic style of Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. It works for him. Friends of Israel – there are some; just not in the country’s vicinity – must cringe at the mere thought that “Bibi” is coming to town. Think of the enormous security costs the host has to absorb to accommodate him and the disruption to their own agenda (maybe, just maybe, their own national interests have some validity) they undergo to hear his habitual refrain: “we are your border guards; give us more weapons, more quickly to do our job for your benefit”.
TORONTO – Sfacciato e diretto, questo riassume lo stile diplomatico internazionale del Primo Ministro israeliano Benjamin Netanyahu. È un approccio che funziona per lui…
