Re: "Why is there no mention of the Afghan war? Surely Canadians (or at least Torontonians) would benefit from the Star's summary of the candidates' approach to that war too. Especially the muscular approach of the Democrats."
Likely because of the Star's kowtowing to its beloved Atkinson Principles. Never let facts intrude upon ideology.
I must give the Star's news staff credit however for including the Afstan box.
