OTL SHOW NOTES
The OTL gang is assembled! Keith Leslie at CHCH-TV, John Wright SVP Maru Public Opinion, Sabrina Nanji, Publisher and Editor of the Queen’s Park Observer and SSN Chief Executive Producer Dave Trafford are around the table.
In this episode:
Why do we even listen to Bonnie Lysyk? Sure, the annual Auditor General’s report makes for great headlines. So, what?
John Wright says the AG report is nothing better than clickbait.
Toronto Star Investigative reporter Kevin Donovan has had more effect on holding governments accountable than all of Lysyk’s annual reports combined!
Doug Ford says he won’t use the Notwithstanding Clause to overrule a court decision striking down Bill 124. (He also said he wouldn’t touch the Greenbelt.)
And, what does it say about the NDP when they’re on the verge of acclaiming the Official Leader of the Opposition?
BTW, if you enjoy On the Ledge, you’ll probably enjoy our daily SSN podcast - NOW and NEXT with Dave Trafford and Erin Trafford.
