Today's podcast: Federal Environment and Climate Change Minister Steven Guilbeault is attempting to walk back his statement "there will be no more envelopes from the federal government to enlarge thed road network" to a Montreal conference earlier in the week. Also stated the federal government wants to get Canadians out of our cars and trucks and living in high density urban areas. Premiers Ford and Smith immediately challenged Gilbeault. - Also the Liberals rebranded the 'Climate Action Incentive Rebate' as the 'Canada carbon rebate.' Guilbeault is also hinting at changes to be announced concerning his energy dictates for provinces, as what he has proposed is receiving heavy pushback from particularly Alberta and Saskatchewan. Trudeau government continues to claim 80% of Canadian households paying the carbon tax will receive more money in rebates than they pay for carbon taxation. Not so according to Parliamentary Budget Officer Yves Giroux in interviews with us. Guest: Dan McTeague. President: Canadians for Affordable Energy. The aforementioned Stephen Guilbeault stated in Canada's parliament that Dalhousie University professor Sylvain Charlebois had stated there is no evidence the carbon tax is negatively affecting food pricing in Canada. Professor Charlebois immediatley pushed back declaring he had never such a thing. Guest: Professor Sylvain Charlebois, Director Agri Foods Lab at Dalhousie University  This was a heaveily debated issue 30+ years ago and it's back. NDP sponsored children's rights legislation, Bill 273, would ban spanking of children at home or using force on children at school by supervisory adults (teachers) received support for a second reading in parliament by a 208-115 vote. Section 43 of the Criminal Code (introduced in 1892) and most recently amended by the Supreme Court of Canada in 2004, permits parents to spank judiciously, not in anger and with age consideration of children. The Canadian Teachers Federation opposes the NDP bill/ What about parents? And how does a prominent criminal lawyer view the proposed legislation? (It has been argued parents forcing a child into a children's car seat might run afoul of no corporal punishment legislation.) Guest: Ari Goldkind. Criminal lawyer and media commentator. The federal Liberals and NDP are attempting to negotiate a national pharmacare program in order to keep their political alliance alive and prevent a snap election. Is that a sound basis for a program securing pharmaceuticals for Canadians dealing with a need for medications including significant, even life-threatening illness? Would a national pharmacare program be funded sufficiently that the newest and most effective drugs for cancer, heart disease, diabetes and other serious illnesses become and/or remain available, or would a pharmacare bureaucracy be underfunded or over-regulated to the point pharmaceutical companies would not make the most recent and effective/expensive drugs available to Canada and Canadians? Guest: Dr. Shawn Whatley. Past president of the Ontario Medical Association and author: When Politics Comes Before Patients. --------------------------------------------- Host/Content Producer – Roy Green Technical/Podcast Producer – Tom McKay If you enjoyed the podcast, tell a friend!

And there's more - she's warning about an additional 6.5% hike if the federal Liberals don't come through with more cash for the city.

Those demonstrations blocking the Avenue road overpass will no longer be allowed.

The same Toronto Police Service whose horses trampled an Indigenous woman during the Freedom Convoy protests saw some of its officers serving coffee to anti-Israel protesters who blocked a bridge in a Jewish neighbourhood on the weekend.

In Canada, violent criminals are being released from jail despite being a threat to the public and are often reoffending, leaving many Canadians wondering what is happening to our justice system. The reality is that woke bail reforms implemented by the federal government have enabled criminals to be judged by their skin colour rather than the crimes that they commit. Meanwhile, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives are being implemented across classrooms in Canada. Far-left activists have full control of what Canadian children are being taught. What is happening in Canada? Criminal defence lawyer Ari Goldkind joins The Rupa Subramanya Show to discuss the woke takeover of Canada's institutions and if there's any hope for the future of our country.

Three people, including a 16 and 12-year-old have been charged in a series of robberies of sports trading cards in the GTA, with a gun involved. When police arrested two of the suspects, they found a loaded firearm. Charges have been laid against the youths and the adult who was in violation of bail conditions.  The question we're asking though is one we first posed approx. 30 years ago to massive response. A 12-year-old at the time was involved in convenience store robberies and flashed a handgun in the process. The question was and is again: should a police officer encounter a 12-year-old child brandishing a very real, or real-looking handgun and that child points the real or real-looking gun at the police officer, what must the police officer do in order to protect anyone in the immediate vicinity and the officer's own life? Open fire, or hold fire because of the apparent age of the offender?

Last week, Toronto Police seized a large amount of guns, most of them traced back to America, and destined for Toronto's streets. Toronto Police Chief, Jon Ramer, said that this is disturbing and that these guns are killing our kids. One man was arrested during this gun bust and has been charged with gun smuggling, but coincidentally, the same man shot and killed one of his friends. But he only received a seven and a half year sentence for murdering someone. So why are some of our hardened criminals just allowed to walk after committing such a heinous act? Let's ask Ari Goldkind, a Criminal Lawyer, who can answer to this and whether or not our criminals are getting off too easily. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

But who is this all fair to? Alex is joined by Ari Goldkind, a Criminal Lawyer, who says that without question, we have a two tiered system and while it's not compulsory to follow the ruling, it does open a lot of doors for discretion and scrutiny.
