Veteran political moderator Steve Paikin will officiate the first Ontario Progressive Conservative leadership debate on the Feb. 15 edition of TV Ontario’s The Agenda, the party announced Wednesday. Pre-taped earlier in the day, it will air at 8 p.m, 11 p.m. and 5 a.m. the next morning, as well as on multiple online platforms. “I will continue to ensure our party is in a strong position for the incoming leader,” interim leader Vic Fedeli pledged in a statement. (There are at least 67,000 fewer real members than the 200,000 Brown often boasted about, the party recently announced.) “Sarah, you and I both know the incident you described never happened,” Paikin wrote on Facebook this week.
