Although I am a regular viewer of Power & Politics, I am surprised that CBC does not exercise more diplomacy and professionalism through the host. Vassy routinely interrupts those who do not align with her views, often neglects to identified issues as "alleged" until the end of her statements (often as an after thought) and her tone is often dismissive and rude. This venue has the potential to influence Canadian perspectives and change the future of our country. The opinions of the host are not expert analysis or facts. The guests chosen to share their perspectives and "expertise" on subject matter (and influence) are largely from the Conservative party. I would like to see a more balanced approach in this medium and really appreciated Katie Simpson's objective and professional approach.
