Telegram editor Russell Wangersky points out in his column this week that local political campaigns suffer from an obvious lack of new ideas.
It’s been so formulaic that there have even been candidates lamenting the state of the media for failing to do riding profiles of each of the federal ridings.
The only thing more lacklustre than the recent campaigns would be a panel of local reporters discussing the campaign. Gee, maybe they'll talk about things they knew but didn't tell their audiences, just like they did last time.
