I've become fairly disappointed with CBC recently...most of the pieces they write now are opinion versus fact and are in general left leaning.
I'd wish media would just present fact and then let us decide how to interpret it.

How do facts have a left and a right to them? Arent facts, well...facts?
Opinion pieces are exactly that, the authors opinion and are labeled that way on every worthwhile news source.
In regards to the Don Lemon piece, that was a news story, the costs associated with how Trump and family is going about their business. Trumps travelling south every weekend, his kids going to the middle east on Trump company business and having his wife live in NY is costing the Govt and Secret Service a ton of money for protection. For that panelist to call it fake news was laughable.
