If the Liberal Party of Ontario elects Canada's first openly gay premier next week, you can be sure we'll never hear the end of it. So why aren't we hearing more about it now? If Kathleen Wynne herself has shown little fear about brandishing the L-word, the mainstream press has been considerably more cautious. Whether the press is deliberately downplaying Wynne's not-so-secret secret as a way to emphasize their own tolerance ("notice how we're not making it an issue?") or simply because they're loath to highlight trivial factoids that could "unfairly" jeopardize her campaign, it's a hard game to play for very long.
