text: From my POV Sylvia, good and bad:
  
  - good that G&M keeps comments open.  I left The Star after the 2015 election when they claimed to close comments because of vitriol; but never once addressed the problem during the 10 years the PCs were in power.  Some articles seem shockingly negligent in context.
  
  The bad:
  
  - G&M publishing 2 out of 10 leaning right columns does not indicate balance.  Eight out of 10 left-leaning columns still dominate. The imbalance is palpable.
  
  -- G&M's biggest sin is one of omission - ignoring news if  not favourable to the left.  
  
  - Finally, pls review the best site in the world:  realclearpolitics , run by 2 individuals: one on the left & one on the right.  For every curated, linked article on the left, there is an equal one on the same issue, on the right.  RCP respects in equal proportions, divergent perspectives and often includes Canadian-curated links. There are other tabs: real clear world/books/etc.  They are climbing the alexa rank for good reason!
