Free For All Friday - Hour 1
Fill-in host Mark Twohey breaks down the biggest stories with Canada's top newsmakers.
On today's show:
- In the wake of Wednesday's tragic mid-air plane crash in Washington, are today's air-traffic controllers stretched too thin? We dig deeper with Rob Kokonis, who is the President of AirTrav.
- As Canada tries to address America's border concerns, are we addressing them incorrectly? Laura Dawson, an Executive Director of the Future Borders Coalition, delivers her two cents.
- Canadian cities, such as Toronto and Vancouver, are getting bigger and bigger. Some argue they are way too full. How can we adapt to this reality? We open the debate floor with Paul Beaudry, a former Deputy Governor at the Bank of Canada.
Free For All Friday - Hour 2
Hosts from all over the country join the roundtable to discuss the five biggest stories of the week. This week's show features Sabrina Grover from NorthStar Public Affairs, Alex Chreston of Crestview Strategy, and Cam Holmstrom of Niipaawi Strategies.
Topic 1: NDP leader Jagmeet Singh says he could support the Liberals long enough to support a tariff relief bill. Do you still believe an early election gets called once Parliament returns in late-March?
Topic 2: Donald Trump's tariffs, and what the U.S. President really hopes to accomplish.
Topic 3: If Doug Ford still wants to lead Canada's rallying cry against the Trump tariffs, is it out of line for him to travel to America and represent Ontario mid-campaign?
Topic 4: Does Canada need to mandate a 'common culture'?
