\u201cIt\u2019s been seven years since we were in Timmins,\u201d said the program\u2019s producer Kira Stern. \u201cLast time we were here we visited Timmins High and Vocational School.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThis year we wanted a location that took us into the heart of our theme, which happens to be how the economy is doing,\u201d Stern said. \u201cThe new Bucket Shop service facility was perfect, as it had the space we needed to set up a temporary television studio and it also is contributing to economy by providing jobs and services.<\/p>\n

The Agenda has been a mainstay at TVO with Steve Paikin for the last 20 years.\"tvo3\"<\/p>\n

“It is important that we get out and take a look at the rest of province instead of always reporting on what is going on from a Toronto perspective,” said Steve Paikin. “In fact, it’s our mandate.”<\/p>\n
