Mod note: Given the details being shared back & forth worth discussing on their own, I've moved the pro/anti-natalist posts to a new thread here in Canadian Politics, given at least some of the solutions to increasing the birth rate are political.

Good example! In fact, during the last Ontario election campaign, people were commenting that platforms aren’t even really needed, so there is more than one way to see some wanna and should stuff not quite make it onto the “mission accomplished “ list. They all have to be watched pretty much...
Yup - but I remember a rule from the series "Yes, Minister" where someone wanting to be the leader of a party starts off by saying s/he has no interest in seeking the leadership. Maybe the reverse is in play here? Then again, I also agree with some who say the two team coaches hate each other...
Only the broadest of strokes, and no real surprises, but the yet-to-fully-sprout bud of a campaign platform from Team Blue, via fundraising email yesterday ....
Majority of Canadians who voted =/= "Canadians at large", especially when about 1/3 of those who could vote in those elections didn't. Also, that sorta blows the "a real majority of Canadians didn't even vote for him" argument out of the water, doesn't it? ;)
Meanwhile, Canadian Press overview...

There’s still a morning show out of TBay - for now - but yeah, most of the 705/807 news is outta Sudbury.
Unlike in the old days when national news services would do stories on people losing fingers in snowblowers here :)
And is everyone's entire reality (or a reasonable sample thereof) being represented and portrayed? Judging by coverage of my home town (Thunder Bay) on CBC national media, I suspect there's far more nuance to the realities being faced in other cities/towns in Canada I hear stories about that we...
