  • Three stars on a good day.

    Interesting and timely selection of stories reported with adolescent affect and awkward complexity. Sorry, True North — I keep trying, but I can’t seem to keep TDB in my lineup.

Every statement seems to be made in bad faith instead of offering analysis as to how the promoted conservative policies would improve average Canadian citizens’ day-to-day. Poor production and no analysis or journalism offered. No sources cited for the stats mentioned. Wish there was more support for the statements spewed rather than manipulative stats to pit political part... more
