 * Keep He seems to meet WP:GNG. His book got at least one long review; he's been involved in campaigns over media freedom; he's been caught up in a row over anti-semitism; he's a distinguished figure in Canadian journalism; there was wide press reporting over the death of his son. --Colapeninsula (talk) 11:51, 28 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep The above nomination is horrible as the nominator gives us no reasoning behind his mention of policy. The subject looks notable to me and has satisfies WP:GNG. The article could use sourcing better, especially in citing his awards and long career. And it needs updating. Crtew (talk) 13:24, 28 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep - Clearly passes WP:GNG as cited sources are adequate to show notability, but I agree with Crtew that the article could be better sourced. No reason given by nom. AuthorAuthor (talk) 16:52, 28 May 2013 (UTC)
