I'm sitting in an airport in Canada and they have one of those TVs tuned to a TV news channel. The difference is it's a Canadian TV news channel. Stories so far:

• So, tell us more about how you're helping people.
  
• Do you think the provincial government should share in paying for all these immigrants we're welcoming, or just the federal government?
  
• Converting 49 inches of rain into metric.
  
• Civilized interview with a university professor about realistic options for a peaceful resolution with North Korea.
  
• Animals and pets left behind in Harvey flood have not been forgotten.

It's like a parallel universe.
