CTV Newsnet debuted its new afternoon politics show today. You'll remember that that show was called Mike Duffy Live but that name, of course, is now a little problematic. (I don't know why they couldn't have had a little fun and called it Mike Duffy's In the Senate).
So what's the re-branded show called? On the Hill.
Wait a minute. I'm On the Hill !
Couldn't they have called it Inside the Queensway ? Or Beyond the Commons ? or Capital Diary ? Or Political Bytes ? What about Question Period ? Why not make that franchise a six-day-a-week affair?
Oh well. On the Hill it is. Good luck with it CTV Newsnet!
I smell a hosting gig… !
Maybe it's a signal that they are ready to take you back and give you the Duff's old job. I thought you did a great job standing in for him way back then.

Thank you for the kind comments but I'm very happy at CNS and I do wish whatever-its-called and whoever-its-host-will-be all the success in the world.
