Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: People, Journalism, and Canada. Shellwood (talk) 10:23, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Weak keep: Has been a long-time columnist for the Toronto Star, wrote a few encyclopedia articles [1]. Mostly due to the fact that he's cited/quoted in more than a few books [2], implying some notability in his field. Oaktree b (talk) 15:29, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: And the Washington Post [3], he's also mentioned here by name [4], here [5] and here [6] implying notice in the academic field for his work. Oaktree b (talk) 15:32, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
