HuffPo for Canuck?

I'm a big fan of The Huffington Post. However, I'm Canadian, and am looking for something that features Canadian politics. Is there a site similar to Huffington Post that focusses on Canadian content?

It has a B.C. focus but not exclusively so: TheTyee.ca

There's liblogs.ca, a Canadian liberal blog aggregator.

Wish I had a solid answer for you. I was actually part of a failed initiative a few years back that was hoping to do exactly what you're talking about. Other than lack of funds, the problem seemed to be that Canadian politics just weren't (still aren't?) divided enough. That is, though one may have left-leaning small "l" liberal tendencies, it quickly gets boring and, more to the point, incomplete if you're just assuming that the Conservatives are idiots and assholes worthy of repeated scorn and evisceration, and the NDP and Liberals aren't.

That said, good question. Here's hoping someone comes through with an answer (a link) that I haven't seen before.

Again, not a proper answer but the CBC's THE HOUSE is a darned good weekly radio show focused specifically on Ottawa based Federal Government goings-on.

It's not quite what you're looking for, but themarknews.com might be to your liking.
