Two-sentence "he existed, the end" biography of a local radio and television news anchor — the article just says he worked for CTV News without acknowledging that he worked for CTV's local affiliate in Regina and not the national news division, and "MBC News" is not a notable news organization in its own right but simply the standard news division of a single community radio station that's a "network" only in the sense of having a bunch of rebroadcasters. As always, local broadcast journalists are not automatically entitled to Wikipedia articles just because they existed, but this isn't sourced anywhere near well enough to get him over WP:GNG in lieu -- the references are a short blurb about his death on the website of his own former employer, and his routine death notice from the local newspaper classifieds. This is not enough "coverage" to make a journalist notable. Bearcat (talk) 20:58, 15 February 2018 (UTC)
