The Agenda Strikes Again

And I think Steve Paikin's show tonight is a repeat, but what a great idea - the living ex-Premiers of Ontario - David Peterson, Bob Rae, Mike Harris, Ernie Eves. Sadly, Bill Davis could not join in for health reasons.

What is stunning and delightful is how clearly decent all these guys are (which does not guarantee good policy). But it vaguely opens the option that they can learn from mistakes - as in fact Rae did, making him a sort of pariah for a while.

Paikin asks wonderful questions, and lets these guys show themselves. Much of what they leave behind I dislike but I am impressed by all these characters.

Small Update: Ernie Eves talks about sleep disruption - this just seems so sad.
