Fair odds.
Anon--
How is it fair, odds or otherwise, to have someone on a political panel who cannot 'remember' anything that happened during his time in politics?

And Tony Parsons, Global's most identifiable brand, was chosen at seventy years old to replace the highly competent and award-winning Ian Hanomansing as CBC news anchor.
Some would call this another example of the increasing identity theft of the CBC.
lynx!

Very disappointing. Very smart guys all of 'em, and very well spoken and they also have the same shared background---white, upper middle class, traditionally educated older men, immersed in government processes and supporting capitalism. Jaysus.
What's the point of listening to that panel? how about bringing in some frickin diversity of background and perspectives for some interesting dialogue and looking forward. Only need one of those guys for the traditionalists to be represented.
What is happening to CBC??!
"white, upper middle class, traditionally educated older men, immersed in government processes and supporting capitalism
Nobody but the types above have opinions that matter, do they? Martin Brown doesn't need a memory, without one it's easier to just make it up as he goes without being distracted by facts.......such inconvenient little annoying things are those damn facts!
I'd also argue that at least two of the three has a revisionist history axe or fifty to grind....
