CP article:

"The destructive fixation of the envious English-Canadian mind requires that the highest, happiest, most agile flyers be laid low,'' Black wrote in his 1993 memoir, "Conrad Black: A Life In Progress.''

He called it "a sadistic desire corroded by soul-destroying envy, to intimidate all those who might aspire to anything the slightest exceptional.''

Judging by public reaction to Black's recent conviction by a Chicago jury, the multi-millionaire businessman got that right -- with a vengeance.

Well, not exactly. At the time the poll was taken, Conrad Black was a convicted felon, not an 'agile flyer'. And English Canada didn't 'lay him low', the Yanks did that!
