J.J. McCullough: Media Bites: Turns Out All Journalists are Gun Violence Experts
2012-04-27-mediabitesreal.jpg Isn't it impressive how every Torontonian with a newspaper column knows exactly how to prevent vicious gang violence?

Canadians have real expectations of you, not just to cut cheques -- and increasingly smaller cheques at that -- but to lead Canada on health care. Your absence will hurt the health of Canadians.
Sid Ryan: Part 2: Hudak and Harper Attempt to Silence their Critics
Stripped to its core, Ontario PC Leader Tim Hudak's vision is not about "modernizing" the labour market in the interests of prosperity for all. He seeks to usher in an era of permanent uncertainty for all working people to the overwhelming benefit of corporations.
