I am scheduled today to debate Green Party Leader Elizabeth May on CHCH TV's Square Off program at 5:30 PM ET.
Topic: May's loopy idea to ban political TV ads.
This could bet messy.
Update: It did get messy. But I demolished her. Score: Gerry 1, Green Party 0

I hope you'll be fair to her and only use small words, preferably single syllable.
Go for it Gerry! She should be an easy target.
Her words during the 08 leadership debate were an attack ad against PM Harper, she brought up the NCC and his opinions from years ago that you know quite well Gerry.
Anyone like Dizzy Lizzy that wants to ban all political ads to stop attack, negative, or truth ads should think about moving to Communist China to find like minded people.
Why is Lizzy getting more free time to advertise her misleading platform?

Well caught your debate. Thank you for proving her point. She's right, school yard bully tactics have no place in politics.
