The guys discuss how justice issues may have affected the federal election results, and what comes next for the Conservatives after losing a 25 point lead. The BC Premier has (sort of) called for an inquiry into the mental health treatment and decisions surrounding the tragedy in Vancouver at the Lapu Lapu Festival. Should there be more involuntary institutionalizations of those with mental health conditions?In the past two days, two young children have gone missing in Nova Scotia. We discuss the criticism the RCMP has been receiving about not issuing an Amber Alert at the earliest opportunity.Finally, we discuss the first week of the jury trial for the five former Canadian World Junior hockey players on trial in London, ON. The trial centers on two videos made by the complainant, in which she claims to have consented to the activity in question. We discuss how the jury might weigh that evidence, and other issues that have arisen in the trial, including how the trial had to restart with a new jury after a mistrial was declared on day two of the trial.

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.
