I want a Toronto Star-style newspaper to start up here in Ottawa. Just saying.

I want a Star-like paper, too! I was so disappointed when their bid for the Canwest papers was rejected.

They don't even have to own the proposed 'paper themselves! I just want to see whoever sets it up run it accordingly!

(And every major city in Canada could certainly make good use of such a 'paper in getting real competition of ideas going!)
