Canadian current events

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

It is a time sensitive page that currently redirects to 2010. Even if it did link to 2014, the year is a poor proxy for current events as there are things like the Charbonneau Commission that have been ongoing for years. - Sweet Nightmares  15:53, 10 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep Years ago, this used to be maintained much like the "In the news" section of the Wikipedia main page, and subsequently for awhile redirected to a (now dormant) current events section of the Canada Portal, before it got switched to the (then) current 2010 in Canada. I don't see much point in deleting a redirect.  If a user enters "Canadian current events", may as well send them somewhere relevant.  If we don't (for obvious reasons) want to redirect to 2014 in Canada, then redirect to List of years in Canada or something.  But it's kind of pointless to delete it.  --Skeezix1000 (talk) 16:11, 10 July 2014 (UTC)
 * The List of years in Canada article would be more appropriate than the current redirection, although it isn't organized in a way that makes it easy to find the most recent page. If the list page had a section heading such as "Current decade", the page under discussion could redirect to the section, and the section heading would only have to be moved every ten years when the next decade began. &mdash;Anne Delong (talk) 16:20, 10 July 2014 (UTC)
 * Good point, Anne. I created a "current decade" subheading at List of years in Canada, enabling such a redirect from here.  --Skeezix1000 (talk) 17:47, 10 July 2014 (UTC)
