Welcome to a special edition of Trillium Talk, your must-see briefing from Village Media’s team of journalists at the Ontario Legislature.
Although this segment usually runs on Sunday mornings, we're ramping things up now that a provincial election has been set for Feb. 27.
Every weekday during the campaign, Village Media's Scott Sexsmith will sit down with one of our staffers at The Trillium to talk about the big developments of the day.
On the show today is reporter Charlie Pinkerton, who was in North Bay for a sold-out leaders' debate at Canadore College.
It marked the first time Progressive Conservative Leader Doug Ford, NDP Leader Marit Stiles, Liberal Leader Bonnie Crombie and Green Party Leader Mike Schreiner squared off on the same stage during this campaign.
You can watch the full debate HERE.
