No one is talking about this so I will bring it up: I think Steve Paikin is a good interviewer (He interviewed me over a decade ago! It was very nerve-wracking to be on TV! He was a nice guy about it!) but I do ***not*** think he is the political moderator we need in 2025, and he should not have been the English-language federal debate moderator. It unfortunately kept the tone of the debate fluffy and superficial, and barely gets beyond the bare-bones talking points.
