What is this weirdness when the one trying to clean up PChan and PJ Kwong's crap is Skate Canada?

This guy hopes his daughter will grow up with the same respect for Chinese culture and history as PChan? gurllll

I'd be curious which were the quotes attributed to him that he never said. The thing is, the original interview (from after his trip). The thing is, the way that article was written, there was nothing about culture roots and heritage, and it was all about what China could offer him materially. I suppose it's possible that the article was edited to come out that way.

One thing I don't get, though, is that although Reuters is American, hasn't the Globe and Mail always been really pro-Chan?

And the business about his Chinese daughter is vaguely offensive to me somehow, I can't quite put my finger on it...

I think it's offensive too.

It seems very "it's okay because I have a black friend."

Patrick Chan is just one spoiled and insolent brat - he grew up in abundance, practicing in ideal conditions, surely receive higher salaries from Skate Canada (than Plushy from Russian FS Federation), shooting and earning on the commercials ... at the same time - he received as "normal", his "patronage" by the judges and the ISU, which procured him Canada!

Besides - he did not know when he began, that the hockey is more popular in the Canada (actually, anywhere in the world) than figure skating? :-D

Chan must face music, skate through controversy:
