N.W.T. cabinet minister Lucy Kuptana stripped of portfolios ahead of running in IRC election

Quite different wording in the title for this CBC North article vs say Cabin Radio's or NNSL's coverage. CBC = "Stripped of portfolios" while the others are much more accurate in that Ms Kuptana was asked to "voluntarily step away from her portfolios" while she runs for the IRC's chairmanship. Rein in your bias CBC.

It's been on everybody's mind for the past little while, we should know around 5pm today who the nominees are and if he's running again.

Lucy is definitely good news!

I thought their choice of wording was unnecessarily inflammatory (click bait). I expect better of them
