Gord Steeves wife's comments about being harrassed by drunken natives killed his mayoral bid. True comments.
Let that sink in. Women's safety concerns were trumped by the mere inclusion of race, despite the fact that she was harassed. That's far more removed from Steeves or even indecency than the allegations Wab faces, true or not.

The court of public opinion can certainly "judge" Kinew on these charges. Absolutely. He put himself and his past out there, and has to deal with the repercussions.
My issue is the that somehow he is automatically guilty of this "crime" or that he somehow needs to confess. It is ridiculous IMO and indefensible that the FP and its journalists can carry on with these published stories that assume guilt on a person who will never see his day in court on dropped charges. They know better than this, and we should all be smarter than this.
