FED ELECTION BENCHMARK (15-057032-01)

[I prefer the new format for leaders' debates] As you may know, the historic traditional format for leaders' debates was that it was organized by a consortium of TV broadcasters, and it was aired on all of the major networks - one debate in English, the other in French. However, Stephen Harper has said he won't
participate in the consortium debate, and Thomas Mulcair says he won't participate in debates that Stephen Harper does not participate in, effectively killing the debate. Meanwhile, a number of smaller debates hosted by individual news outlets are being held thereby increasing the number of debates, but none of
them will receive prime-time airing on all the major TV networks. To what extent do you agree or disagree with the following:

Meanwhile, a number of smaller debates hosted by individual news outlets are being held thereby increasing the number of debates, but none of them will receive prime-time
airing on all the major TV networks. To what extent do you agree or disagree with the following:

FED ELECTION BENCHMARK (15-057032-01)

[L2B Summary] As you may know, the historic traditional format for leaders' debates was that it was organized by a consortium of TV broadcasters, and it was aired on all of the major networks - one debate in English, the other in French. However, Stephen Harper has said he won't participate in the consortium
debate, and Thomas Mulcair says he won't participate in debates that Stephen Harper does not participate in, effectively killing the debate. Meanwhile, a number of smaller debates hosted by individual news outlets are being held thereby increasing the number of debates, but none of them will receive prime-time
airing on all the major TV networks. To what extent do you agree or disagree with the following:
