Through various media outlets, Conrad Black put forward his views on the Canadian establishment: he denounced the country's welfare system as "an overgenerous reinsurance policy for an underachieving people"; blamed brain drain on Canada's high taxes; attacked trade unions; and derided liberal politicians, once calling an Ontario politician the "Salvador Allende of Canada," trying to "strangle, disembowel, and immolate the vestiges of the incentive-based economy." Black called the Bishop of Calgary a "jumped-up little twerp" and a "prime candidate for exorcism" for backing a strike at Black's Calgary Herald newspaper.
