    Hi Mike

    I understand you have a investment in Jerry, you cant have the public calling in and cementing the option this fool is a fool. So why do you broadcast, is this some kind of big brother experience, where the outcome of any debate is always obvious. We live in difficult times and your corporate masters vision of the future may make it dim. I do not know but to censor my opinion when directly challenged by one of your hosts would make Betty Kennedy spill her tea. Jerry is afraid of debate, that's the meme that will flow from this exchange, and you will get all the echo chamber listeners applauding. Is it not your mandate to expand the audience? People like conflict,. I offer you some, so what part of the equation do you defeat by not giving in to popular demand,. If Jerry's crazy opinions can not stand up to a callers attack, what good is he?

      @SteveB_10 I agree with you fully. Jerry is angry gimmick and nothing more. He's on the air during a very slow time of day and is a form of shock entertainment. Similar to Howard Stern, etc. By letting him get to you is to let him win! Do as I do, boycott the show, tell people never to listen to 1010 from 9am to noon, and say a prayer for his poor kids who have this angry monster as a role model.

      The sad thing is there's an AUDIENCE that feeds off conflict and anger. It's pretty pathetic BUT Astral is merely addressing a specific market which from a business perspective is good and profitable.

      Jerry's approach is to yell, insult, bully, using negative tones and generally communicate like a Neanderthal when people disagree with him. He constantly runs from debate and rarely admits fault. He is a media coward who is a disgrace to the conservative party.

      Jerry Agar, getting every Canadian to hate him one at a time.

      @SteveB_10 Jerry is afraid of debate....
      Huh?
      You don't watch Jerry much do you?
      Jerry lives to debate which is why I like him.
      The only folks who do not like debate for the most part are liberal/socialists......John Moore is an exception.
      I don't like many of John's thoughts but I respect him as he does deabte well.

    Want to get on the show to debate me?

    I frequently have people on who disagree with me, who are guests, not callers. Here is how to be one of them.

    Be an elected official who is in the news on an issue.

    Be a recognized expert on an issue.

    Be the leader and/or spokesperson for an organization that consists of more members than just yourself, that has made news somehow.

    Publish a book that sells that is relevant and interesting on the issues we discuss on the show.

    Be a popular columnists or media figure with something to say.

    Not one of those? Then you are not relevant as a media figure and there is no popular demand for your opinion. Sorry. Keep blogging.

      @Jerry Agar Jerry you don't have any of these qualifications yourself?
      I guess you're not relevant either. not surprised! Keep ranting and insulting people!!

    What a mind blowing waste of $'s. How much do you think this cost. School Boards cry that they are poor and do not have enough staff but they issue a 20 page report. Left wing political correctness at its best. Some of these suggestions are absolutely moronic. Great job Durham! Anyone can refer to me as a Canadian, English Speaking, Agnostic White Male Person with a bad golf swing. Holy smokes- I think I just offended myself.

    Well, here we go again. Who are these people that have nothing to do but come up with idiotic ideas. I agree with you Jerry.

    I would like to be Prime Minister for a short while, I would fire all of the school boards, that would be shortly after I fire all of the bureaucrats, from the top and down seceral layers. Nothing will change on the political scene or the board scene unless these people are fired, regardless of who gets into government, Liberals, Conseratives or NDP. Then I would move onto the unions, how dare they support, the union leaders that is, the BLOC and the students etc.

    Oops, guess I would be a dictator. You know, that may not be a bad idea. Enough with this political correctness. Better quit now, need to go take out the garbage. Oh, I forgot the oil/gas companies.....fire them too. :-)

      @michaelt_5451 Maybe you should just call yourself Dalton Mcguinty! Our very own provincial dictator.

    I'll print this out and use it as toilet paper.
    Do folks actually get paid to come up with this crap?

    wouldn't it have been nice if the money that was wasted producing that "report" was actually used in the schools buying supplies or maybe upgrading the computers or doing, well just about anything but this. While my wife spends her own money paying for school supplies for her students we see the school boards wasting money on garbage like this. Shameful.

      @MichaelP The folks who waste money on this sort of thing while at the same time are crying for money for the schools, come from the same crop who administer a hospital up in Richmond Hill that recently spent $300k to rename and rebrand the hospital, then when to Richmond Hill council to ask for $1M per year for 10 years!

      @MichaelP ...... it would have been nicer if it was put towards paying down the provinical debt.
