In cities and towns across Ontario — and at Queen’s Park and Parliament Hill — our journalists work for you. Their mission is to dig for answers and tell you what they find.
This new feature — ‘Closer Look’ — is a chance to hear directly from those dogged reporters and editors.
Every weeknight, Village Media’s Scott Sexsmith sits down with one of our journalists to explore an important story they are covering. These in-depth conversations go beyond the headlines, helping viewers better understand how we gather the details that land in your local news feed.
On tonight’s episode of ‘Closer Look’: The man in the boat.
Last week, we told you about a mystery fishing boat marooned on the Toronto islands. This week, another vessel — and the person inside — are generating plenty of attention in a different region of Ontario.
The plight of a lone sailor seemingly trapped in Georgian Bay ice has created quite a stir in Penetanguishene, with nearby residents concerned about his well-being as winter settles in.

Stay tuned for more episodes of ‘Closer Look’ every weeknight at 7 p.m. You can find all our previous segments HERE.
