I appreciate what the Markhamite is trying to do in bringing local news to the community but I would hope that it would be more serious and less frivolous topics. An example of a local small local media publication that works I believe is the Stouffville Bullet Point News that does broad community coverage and detailed coverage of council meetings including development and other issues that maybe contentious and challenges the status quo. For a community of almost 350,000 with little local news I thought your publication would help fill the void. I am sure it is a challenge with no staff and a small budget but here's hoping you can grow and provide insightful information to all Markhamites.
