ON THE POINTS OF DIVERGENCE

Systemic versus individual framing
Coverage aligned with this reading · with 2 other countries
Emotional and cultural dimension
Coverage aligned with this reading · with 5 other countries
Therapeutic use of ketamine
Coverage aligned with this reading · with 3 other countries

BIASES AND FRAMING IDENTIFIED

National-emotional framing: the emphasis on Perry's Canadian origins amplifies national emotion at the expense of the strictly judicial dimension

Preference for the victim's story: coverage valorizes Perry's portrait as a vulnerable survivor rather than a systemic analysis of the supply network

Low coverage of co-defendants: the four other convicted individuals remain in the background, limiting understanding of the broader network involved
