Sometimes the real meaning of news goes beyond the stories themselves. 

I spotted this story (as, presumably all other commenters did) on the "Home"  page as a small-font headline under "World."  It was easily overlooked, because Xi was overwhelmed by the pontificating President's big photo and the bold, black headline, "Donald Trump uses inaugural address to outline "America First" vision." 

Don't sneer at the G&M; media knows what's important to the masses. To prove my point, a few minutes ago, Trump's photo and the headline disappeared, replaced by a photo of female protesters ("Dump Trump!") and the headline, "Women Descend on Washington..."  

A few days ago, at the World Economic Forum at Davos, "the most powerful man in the Communist Party", Xi Jinping was likely making the real history. Our PM wasn't there to hear it...having been persuaded (mostly by angry Canadians) to stay home.  Too bad. Ministers are no substitute for the leader when its time to "press the flesh."
