Coverage of the debate:
“Candidates pound health system in debate”
They have a funny quote from our candidate, Saleh Waziruddin, but it’s out of context. The context is: the Conservative had said because of the infections at the hospital from insufficiently cleaned rooms that she would go in herself and scrub the floors, and then the Green said as a midwife she has scrubbed the floors herself, and then…well you’ll just have to read the article!“Green Party makes inroads with young crowd at first all-candidates meeting in St. Catharines”
The students declared the Green party candidate the winner but put the Communist candidate on par with her because we both “impressed with their knowledge of the issues, their ideas, their non-attacking approach, and for tackling questions head-on”
The debate was tweeted live by Jeff Bolichowski of the St. Catharines Standard:

The Toronto Star's "Speak Your Mind" series of blogs covers the 2011 Ontario election riding by riding. Here the St. Catharines blogger William Morrison covers the TVCogeco debate where he analyzes each candidate for both content delivery. He gives me credit for good interaction with the crowd and charisma, although I am criticized for promoting the Communist Party too much in the content. If anything I would say the Communist Party doesn't get promoted enough! Note also that although he says the Green party candidate does not belong in an election debate, the coverage above reports that the student panel awarded her as the winner.
