Just sat through the repeat. Why do I even bother with the CBC anymore?

Evan Solomon referring to John Duffy as Duff in the snippet you describe above illustrated the cosy relationship between the CBC and the Liberals that has done more damage to journalism in this country than Conrad.

The only good thing that may come from a CPC victory--the end of this public-funded crap that is our national broadcaster.

No, I hear you. But at least with CanWest Global we know what we're getting whereas with the CBC we get lulled into a false sense of security: if something isn't overtly right-wing then it must be progressive or at least okay (i.e. fair and unbiased).

The Halifax lady really astounded me, I fear this may be typical of people just looking for a change, who need help, but don't understand politics. In such a progressive city I'm surprised she hasn't gotten swept up by the McDonnough campaign.

I was just happy to see the Greens in this thing and the Bloc absent.

The idealist in the group voted Green
