Victory for the Ontario PCs was spun by Andrea Horwath as enough of a win for the NDP and the subject of more philosophical despair for Kathleen Wynne, re-elected to the Liberal sliver of the backbench.

Still, get ready for the gilded age of cannabis media content, which includes coverage of how not everybody wants to buy it from a store:

Ross Porter says he really did step down to “spend more time with his family and his ailing wife.” Staff turnover has been a fixture of Jazz FM 91, which leans on regular fundraising drives like one happening now.
