CBC has become the FOX of Canada. It was bad under the Libs, but under the Fascist Hapless Govt it has become a COMPLETE joke, with CBC radio following close behind. Mr O'Leary is and always has been a complete douchebag.
You would think the clown would have been fired, but no. Will get promoted soon enough.
Makes me sick.
Nice job by Mr Hedges.

Thank you Chris for not letting you be provoked by that vulgar representative of "his masters voice" mr Kevin O'Leary. I love your last comment. "That will be the last time".
Thank you Chris.

It is time to nationalize the the banks stop propping up the coffers of the speculators. The rule of "the free market" will make us all into poor subjects/prisoners of finanzial feodalism.

How do ignorant people like O'Leary keep their jobs? Then the main stream media wonders why they are losing market share.
