TUNE INTO THE TOWN: TORONTO IS GETTING A NEW CONCERT VENUE Libby Znaimer is joined by Karen Stintz, a Conservative Party of Canada Candidate for Eglinton-Lawrence, a former Toronto City Councillor and the CEO of Variety Village, Barbara Hall, a former Mayor of Toronto, and Toronto City Councillor Brad Bradford for Ward 19 Beaches-East York. Why does Ontario Premier Doug Ford want to build a tunnel under Highway 401 and how much will it cost? And Toronto is getting a new concert venue at Downsview. A RECAP OF LAST NIGHT'S TDSB EMERGENCY MEETING Libby Znaimer is joined by Neethan Shan, Acting Chair of the TDSB, followed by Tamara Gottlieb, Founding member of Jewish Educators and Family Association of Canada (JEFA). A resolution came out of last night's TDSB meeting whereby students attending their schools are not allowed to go on field trips to demonstrations until an investigation launched by the Ontario Minister of Education--looking into how students were brought to anti-Israel protest--is concluded. IS PREMIER DOUG FORD'S IDEA OF A TUNNEL UNDER HIGHWAY 401 WORTH IT? Libby Znaimer is joined by Dr. Frank Clayton, a senior research fellow with the Centre for Urban Research and Land Development at Ryerson University. We alluded to Premier Doug Ford's vision for an underground tunnel that would stretch across the GTA underneath Highway 401 as part of an effort to ease traffic gridlock. But, as we also talked about, we still don't know how much it's going to cost and what the timeframe of building it will look like. So is it worth it?

Over ten years ago, activists and civic leaders ignited the Fight for $15, a movement that was once seen as radical—even Forbes labeled Nick's support for a $15 minimum wage as “near-insane.” Today, the movement's achievements are undeniable: Higher wages for millions of workers, increased union membership, reducing the racial wealth gap, and now raising the federal minimum wage to $15/ hr is one of the central issues in the 2024 presidential campaign, with two-thirds of voters in support. We thought it would be a good time to revisit this episode from 2023, where Yannet Lathrop and Dr. T. William Lester discuss their report from the National Economic Law Project examining the legacy of the movement and all it has accomplished over the last decade. This episode originally aired on January 24, 2023. Yannet Lathrop is a Senior Researcher and Policy Analyst for the National Employment Law Project. Dr. T. William Lester is Professor and Acting Chair of Urban and Regional Planning at San José State University and Research Professor at UNC Chapel Hill.

It would appear that inside the stadium, things were super packed but not as crazy. What's the actual story here?

Some proposed changes to house league hockey here in Hamilton have certainly done just that. Guest: Peter Martin, Acting Chair, Hamilton Minor Hockey Council - With Easter Sunday approaching, do people celebrate this holiday for its religious significance? Why or why not?

Exactly one decade ago, activists and civic leaders launched the Fight for $15. It's hard to recall now, but the idea was wildly controversial at the time—Forbes called Nick's support of a $15 minimum wage “near-insane,” for example. A new report from the National Employment Law Project (NELP) examines the legacy of the movement and all that it has accomplished in the last 10 years. Two of the report's authors join us to discuss the Fight for $15's impact beyond growing paychecks, including its effect on the racial wealth gap, union participation, and the economy overall. Yannet Lathrop is a Senior Researcher and Policy Analyst for the National Employment Law Project. Dr. T.

This podcast was recorded in August 2022, just after a record-breaking heatwave in the UK. Since the start of temperature recording in 1884, the ten warmest years in the UK have all been recorded since 2002. At the same time, rainfall is the lowest since records began, and hosepipe bans have been introduced in parts of the UK, while wildfires are raging across Europe. Climate change has become evident. However, some Directors feel a greater sense of urgency than others. In this podcast, Dr Sabine Dembkowski, Founder and Managing Partner of Better Boards, talks with Susan Hooper. Susan is Chair of Tangle Teezer, Chair Designate of Inter. Earth, and sits on the Boards of Moonpig plc, EUROWAG plc, and Uber UK. She is Acting Chair of Carbon Gap, a Founding Director of Chapter Zero, and she is involved in several start-ups in carbon capture and sustainability. Susan is also an Ambassador for the World Travel & Tourism Council."Climate change is time-boxed - we know the clock is ticking"Susan points out that as recently as 2018, climate change was usually not on the agenda or discussed in board meetings. It is now but mainly because of external requirements. She believes that one of the reasons for the lack of attention to climate change was the lack of understanding that this is not "just another crisis" but a situation without precedent. "For every risk and issue that you are trying to solve, there is at least one opportunity that you hadn't even dreamed was there"Any problem can seem insurmountable but Susan says in these cases, you need to break it down into small manageable parts. The reality is that once this is done, people can understand and find solutions. "Not everyone feels comfortable with the depth of change that is needed"Susan feels that at the board level, there can be a feeling of overwhelm about change. Directors typically come to the board with decades of experience, knowing how to manage the circumstances prevalent in those decades. However, environmental issues can place them in uncomfortable territory. "You definitely don't want to be the lone voice"Susan explains that climate change is a topic where she can find herself the lone voice on a board. She feels board members have to be comfortable with not being "loved." "You've got just to keep chipping away at this issue" Susan points out that this subject keeps changing, so the learning never stops. In the absence of climate specialists on the board, the rest of the board must inform themselves. She has found that bringing in outside advisors to speak helps board members to learn. "This is an important issue that needs attention and to be embraced by the board"Susan confides that she has made a personal pact with herself not to work for a company where the CEO and/or Chair is not recognising that this is an important issue that needs to be embraced by the board. "We mustn't expect everyone to become climate specialists"Susan reminds us that board members are responsible for ensuring that climate competency is within the company in such a way that it will address the issues but not every board member needs to be a climate specialist. Change is needed required in the next three to five years, or the targets for 2030 and 2040 are "pipe dreams." The three top takeaways are:Never underestimate the influence of a Non-Exec Director, despite being a lone voice. Each Director is responsible for the overall results. Everyone tries to make good decisions with the lowest risks, but waiting for clarity is not an option, as there is so little we understand. Do not worry about what you cannot do. Just focus on what you can do.

Host Sam Bloore talks with Rebecca Dow about education, policy, and living well as a single woman deeply committed to family and community. Rebecca lectures in education at Laidlaw College, helping to form the next generation of teachers. Her experience in education has been extensive and diverse: she has been a teacher, Deputy Principal, consultant, and policy researcher and advisor to the Spokesperson for Education. Here, she shares her vision for education: for Rebecca, good learning is not simply about information, or instruction, but is a matter of whole-person formation. This holistic vision of life also marks her journey as a single woman. With disarming openness and joy, she talks with Sam about what she's learned about living richly as a single woman who cares deeply about the Church, about community, and about family. Rebecca's commitment to community is reflected in her governance experience in both the education and not-for-profit sectors; among her current roles, she is the Acting Chair of the Venn Board. This is a conversation charged with a quiet, delighted awareness of God's leading, and of our call to seek the flourishing of our wider communities. It's a cracker—we know you'll enjoy it.It's not hard to find podcasts with experts, or full of information. But here we're interested in the whole person at work, rest, and play; we'll be exploring how faith in Christ has unfolded in their lives. As the conversation rolls, we hope you'll catch a glimpse of how deep and wide God's purposes are for each of us.

How is regulatory change reshaping ESG investing? Listen to Jason Mitchell discuss with Commissioner Allison Herren Lee of the US Securities and Exchange Commission, about the SEC's evolving views around disclosure and materiality; its enforcement efforts; and the need to work towards greater harmonisation given the multitude of global disclosure frameworks. Find the full transcript of the episode here. Jason Mitchell, Co-Head Responsible Investment, Man Group: If there's a predominant theme in sustainable investing right now, it's regulation. And in the broadest sense, regulation is taking on a number of forms: from driving the transition to a low carbon economy to reporting on the impacts of biodiversity; from enforcing anti-greenwashing protections to even steering private sector investment. It's also clear that we're talking about different global regulatory approaches that will increasingly need to harmonise. While the EU's legislation-driven approach has already delivered a number of investor frameworks, the US SEC's regulatory approach to climate and ESG is evolving under the new Biden administration. In my mind, this provides a fascinating view of the arguments for how to world-build around issues like disclosure, materiality and enforcement. And for followers of the regulatory discussion, you can't have missed the incredibly thoughtful speeches and statements delivered by the US SEC Commissioners. Their views don't necessarily align ideologically, but they always prove provocative and push the discussion forward. One of the views I always look forward to reading is from Commissioner Allison Herren Lee. Her writing examines many of the fundamental elements of ESG through the prism of case law, and she is not afraid to challenge its myths and misconceptions. It's why I'm so excited to have Commissioner Lee on the podcast. We talk about the SEC's evolving views around disclosure and materiality; its enforcement efforts; and the need to work towards greater harmonisation given the multitude of global disclosure frameworks. More about Commissioner Allison Herren Lee: Commissioner Allison Herren Lee was appointed and sworn into the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in 2019. While Commissioner Lee served as Acting Chair of the Commission by President Biden earlier this year, she was responsible for establishing the Climate and ESG Enforcement Taskforce. She brings to the SEC over two decades of experience as a securities law practitioner. Commissioner Lee served for over a decade in various roles at the SEC, including as counsel to Commissioner Kara Stein, and as Senior Counsel in the Division of Enforcement's Complex Financial Instruments Unit.
