Canada got a bit of a shock last night: Carol Off is ending 16 years as co-host of As It Happens on CBC Radio at the end of next month. Hers is a voice I've gotten used to hearing on the radio, of course, being a longtime CBC listener. The series will continue, of course, well into what we hope is its next full half-century.

The town of Tilbury, Ontario is getting a pleasant shock of its own: they're going to have a newspaper of their own again. Mohsin Abbas, a journalist originally from Pakistan now calling Canada home, is doing the work to make that happen for the Tilbury Times, liberating the brand - so we hope - from Postmedia control. The CBC News report goes into a lot more detail about Tilbury, Mr. Abbas, and the process of rescue and revival.
