Ontario Premier Doug Ford's Reagan-themed anti-tariff ad was meant to defend Canadian workers — but instead, it triggered a full-blown diplomatic storm. Within hours, Donald Trump accused Canada of "fraud," cancelled all trade talks, and reignited tariff tensions just weeks before a crucial U.S. Supreme Court ruling. With over $900 billion in annual trade on the line, was this ad a bold stand or a reckless political stunt that cost Canada leverage at the worst possible time? Listen to the full debate: Did Doug Ford make a mistake running the anti-tariff ad against the U.S.? Hosts: Jatinder Gidda & Raghav Choudhary

Ontario has banned speed cameras and launched a $210 million Road Safety Fund for speed bumps, raised crosswalks, roundabouts, signs, and more police patrols. Supporters say this creates permanent safety infrastructure, avoids "cash-grab" ticketing, and delivers real improvements in school zones. Critics argue the cameras were working, reducing speeding, and ensuring speeders, not taxpayers paid for road safety. So, the question is simple: Do you support Doug Ford's decision? Is the $210M expense justified, or should speed cameras have stayed? Hosts: Jatinder Gidda & Raghav Choudhary

Ontario's new Bill 60 - the Fighting Delays, Building Faster Act  is one of the most controversial housing reforms in years. Supporters say it will speed up the LTB, crack down on chronic non-payment, and help build more rental housing. Critics argue it will weaken renter protections, make evictions easier, and worsen homelessness. So, the big question: Is Bill 60 right for the people of Ontario? Let's break it down, and let the debate begin. Hosts: Jatinder Gidda & Raghav Choudhary
