CONRAD BLACK BACK THEN

«U.S and Canadian Customs are the worst. Conrad Black had sent a limo for us, it took us to the Four Season Hotel and I had suite 2910 overlooking all of Canada.I got cleaned up and dressed and we went to Mr Black's office. It was a post -modern building, the kind with the big columns and there was an old-fashioned lady with her hair up at an old-fashioned switchboard. Mr black had read Popism the night before, he'd done his homework, and he reminded me of Peter Brant, but nicer. He was about thity-seven, and sort of heavy, very nice and a nice fortune-they have mines, and supermarkets and newspapers.
