Either way, pulling for Canada to remain our very best friend forever, despite blabbermouth trying to destroy it.

Real journalists that are not in the back pocket of oligarchs
It is not that corporate either - closer to watching your local channel 7 news years ago ...

CBC & BBC, etc - on US news are often better and certainly less biased or money centric than the big US networks

US had raised the bar of journalism to exceptional heights with Cronkite, 60 minutes, etc, etc, etc
Those days are gone.

The only question is whether they will win a majority (more than half the seats)
