JSF fan,
no, the government press release said that the article contained a 'number of innaccuracies'. it didn't say what those inaccuracies were - it could, for example have been refering to spelling mistakes, or specific stuff that doesn't really impact on the thrust of the story which is that JSF is in very deep poo in Canada, and that the government has, according which version you believe, either already decided to cancel JSF, or decided to have a new competition in which it may well cancel JSF.
if there were no truth whatsoever in the story, the government would have said so - it did not...
