In this conversation with Blacklock's Reporter managing editor Tom Korski, Alex Pierson digs into the growing list of ethical and governance crises facing Ottawa. Korski breaks down the Commons vote ordering hearings into Prime Minister Mark Carney's extensive stock holdings — a portfolio spanning hundreds of companies, including Brookfield's Westinghouse subsidiary, which has received federal funding. The discussion questions whether Canada's top office can truly separate public duty from private interest. They then turn to a surge in federal whistleblower complaints, as the Integrity Commissioner warns Parliament that her office is overwhelmed with serious allegations of corruption, nepotism, and misuse of funds — calling it evidence of a “petty, and sometimes not-so-petty” corruption problem in Ottawa. Finally, the pair debate the proposed federal ban on public displays of the swastika, which the Canadian Civil Liberties Association calls government overreach. Korski argues that while consistency matters, Ottawa's selective outrage reveals deep contradictions in how Charter rights are defended. Learn more about your ad choices.

Korski points to a culture of complacency and political distraction, where senior bureaucrats face no consequences and cabinet ministers seem more interested in photo ops than public administration. The two also discuss the troubling proposal to single out Israeli visitors for “war crime” screening and why chronic mismanagement across agencies like CRA and CBSA exposes how broken Ottawa's systems have become.

This series, Business in Better Shape, was born from new research by Tech on Toast and Square, The Long-Term Case for Smarter Tech Investment.We spoke to more than 150 hospitality leaders across the UK, uncovering an industry stuck between ambition and hesitation.The data showed that while most operators see technology as essential to their future, only 18% would currently recommend their existing systems, and a striking 94% only adopt new tech when absolutely necessary. Fear of disruption, complex integrations, and a lack of vendor support are holding progress back.Download the research hereThat insight inspired this series, real conversations with operators who are finding ways to move forward, to simplify, to modernise without losing what makes hospitality human.In this first episode, host Chris Fletcher talks with Maria McCann, Operations Director at Blacklock, about fear of change, leading people through transformation, and how curiosity and courage can help hospitality get into better shape.Maria's career spans Hard Rock Café, Shake Shack, Living Ventures, and now Blacklock, where she's helping scale one of London's most characterful restaurant brands without losing its soul.This conversation dives into the industry's long-standing fear of change, how to lead teams through disruption, and why curiosity and calculated risk-taking are essential for hospitality's future.Episode Highlights

Unproven organ‑donor strike threat: Labour Minister Patty Hajdu's claim that a legal strike by 10,000 Air Canada flight attendants jeopardized deliveries of life-saving medications and organ tissue could not be substantiated—raising concerns she may have fabricated the scenario to justify strike restrictions. blacklocks.ca “Sexy drag” at Pride Week: A provocative scheduling choice for public service Pride week—featuring a “sexy drag rock star” at a workday bingo event—raises questions about appropriateness and cost, given that the internal notice did not disclose expenses. Widening tax auditors' powers: Proposed amendments to the Income Tax Act would empower Canada Revenue Agency auditors with new tools—allowing them to impose daily $50 fines and to compel oaths under threat of perjury—to enhance audit “efficiency and effectiveness.” Parks Canada corrects PM record: Parks Canada rushed to designate former Prime Minister Brian Mulroney as a national historic person, after it emerged that his Liberal predecessors had been honored much more promptly.

Today, we're looking at the conversation around separatism and what this means for treaties Indigenous groups signed with Canada, and whether these treaties can prevent a province — like Alberta — from splitting off from the rest of Canada. Plus, CBC is sucking up to its benefactor, Mark Carney, following the prime minister's visit to the White House. Is this the kind of positive coverage Carney was expecting after pledging a $150 million increase to the state broadcaster's budget.

The single had peaked at No. 4 on the US singles chart. In the UK Atlantic Records had expected to issue the edited version themselves, and pressed initial copies for release on 5th December 1969. However, band manager Peter Grant was adamant that the band maintain a 'no-singles' approach to marketing their recorded music in the UK, and he halted the release.   1972 - The Electric Light Orchestra made their debut at The Fox and Greyhound in Croydon, London. ELO were formed to accommodate former Move members Roy Wood and Jeff Lynne's desire to create modern rock and pop songs with classical overtones. Wood departed following the band's debut record, Lynne wrote and arranged all of the group's original compositions and produced every album. Learn more about your ad choices.
