Nothing good comes out of these debates. I would give moderator a button that turns off candidate's mic as soon as their 3-min response time's up or as soon as they start going on a tangent by evading an uncomfortable question and giving a prepared electioneering BS instead.
Seriously, we all should be hearing and talking about:
how to get every last bit of oil & gas out of this province as soon as possible before a new form of energy could replace it and make it worthless;
how to diversify our O&G sector by investing in processing petrochemicals into something other than fuels QUICKLY;
how to make our labour force more attractive and less costly to big employers;
how to lower our cost of living;
how to spark and promote in-migration growth;
how to reduce bloated public administration and health care costs...
Instead, we are forced to listen non-stop to this white noise of non-issues like GSA rules and what some candidate said five years ago in a tweet about something equally unimportant...
