    For more than a decade, 24 Sussex Drive, the official residence of Canada's prime minister, has sat empty, falling into disrepair. It's been plagued by everything from outdated infrastructure to mould and even rodents, leaving prime ministers to live elsewhere. Prime Minister Mark Carney says it's finally time to do something about it. Should Canada spend money fixing the prime minister's official residence when so many Canadians are struggling to afford housing? Or is this about preserving an important piece of our national identity? Mohammed Adam, who discusses this in a recent column in the Montreal Gazette, spoke to Ken Connors.

    If you've ever driven through Saint-Lazare, you've probably noticed horses grazing peacefully behind fences. It's a beautiful part of living in that community, and for many people, the temptation is to walk over and offer them a carrot or an apple. But horse owners are warning that this well-meaning gesture can actually be dangerous. A Facebook post from one local horse owner has been getting a lot of attention after she reminded residents that feeding horses without permission can lead to serious health problems and in some cases, even be life-threatening. Lindsay Louise Ward Hernandez, a lifelong horse enthusiast and horse owner in Saint-Lazare spoke to Ken Connors.

The rideshare pickup area has been moved from the terminal curbside to the Leigh-Capreol zone, meaning passengers now have to walk several minutes after arriving before they can get picked up. The airport says the move is meant to reduce congestion and improve traffic flow, but some travellers say the new system is confusing, poorly explained, and especially frustrating after a long flight.Christopher Chang works in the aerospace industry and was at Trudeau Airport earlier this week; he spoke to Ken Connors.
