Today: Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow and other City officials announced that fines are going up for drivers who "block the box" at intersections. According to the City of Toronto, "Blocking the Box occurs when a driver enters an intersection on a green or amber signal when there is no reasonable prospect of being able to clear the intersection before the light changes to red. This disrupts traffic flows, causes transit delays and creates serious safety risks." But even with such a definition, it is still not fully clear what all of the rules are regarding this policy.

The looming question now is whether the American public is prepared for a Black woman president, or if the robust support observed for Trump post-assassination attempt during last week's RNC will endure. MICROCHIPS, IMPORT FORMS AND MORE REQUIREMENTS FOR DOGS ENTERING THE U.S. BORDER STARTING AUGUST Libby Znaimer is joined by Dr. Timothy Arthur, President of the Canadian Veterinary Medical Association.

And there's a new Seniors advocate in BC. One of his first acts was to go to NYC to advocate for a binding international convention on seniors' rights. Is that a useful thing to pursue? ONTARIO PREMIER DOUG FORD'S BIG BEER PLANS Libby Znaimer is joined by Bob Richardson, Senior Council, National Public Relations, and Karl Moore,  Associate Professor, Strategy & Organization AT McGill University.

Kate and Mandy chat to Phoebe, Education Officer at Werribee Open Range Zoo and Zoos Victoria! Phoebe is a triple Pea - a qualified peacher, a Pea mum of two boys both diagnosed with autism and ADHD, and herself recently diagnosed with autism and ADHD. Phoebe is passionate about her job at the Zoo where she's been working for the past 16 years. School children from all across Victoria of all ages come to Zoo on excursions to learn about conservation, and Phoebe says that the environment can be particularly suitable and supportive for neurodivergent kids. Kate and Mandy reflect on how much the Zoo has meant to them personally, offering a safe, inclusive and consistent place to bring their peashoots and families over the years. Mandy recalls the Association for Children with Disabilities Dream Day at the Melbourne Zoo, which Phoebe says paved the way for the Zoo to improve inclusion and accessibility, including providing training for Zoo staff about Pea family needs, and installing Changing Places facilities at each of their four Victorian sites. The Zoo also now provides social stories and sensory maps to help prepare kids before they come to the Zoo on excursions. The Zoo is also very welcoming of adults with disabilities who come to the Zoo for time outdoors in a safe, welcoming and enjoyable environment. Phoebe also says that 10 percent of the Zoo's staff have disabilities, and they're improving their accreditation and hiring practices for volunteers with disabilities. Mandy, Kate and Phoebe also reminisce about the role the Zoo played during COVID lockdowns, where they opened up through digital programs and entertained everyone through the Animals at Home livestreams!Thank you so much for sharing your story with us Phoebe and reminding us all of how much we love our Zoos, and how they're safe, welcoming and accessible places for our Pea families.

In this week's episode of The Best Guest we welcome actor and performance storyteller, Stacia Keogh.We talk about:Why storytelling is so importantThe three most important stories for business owners to shareIf you're new to speaking, how to find your voiceAbout Stacia KeoghStacia began working with businesses writing corporate training videos that were as entertaining as they were informative. She is an actor and performance storyteller appearing on world stages, public venues and small screens everywhere. As a resting actor in London Stacia learned the dark arts of advertising and how to use her story and acting skills to enliven pitches and presentations, notably J Walter Thompson, The Really Useful Group, Imagination and as an Education Officer at Kew Gardens.She currently works with professional service providers helping them to step into their own story to share their wisdom on panels, podcasts, and signature talks, 1:1 or Group Training programsShe hosts the podcast ‘Finding My Voice' where she interviews people who are speaking their truth and giving voice to others.If you play video games or listen to audiobooks chances are you've heard her voice guiding you through adventures.Key TakeawaysStorytelling is not just about reciting mission statements or listing features and benefits. Instead, it's about sharing genuine stories that have characters, specific events, and emotions attached to them. These stories help build trust and connection with customers and teams, allowing them to see themselves in the narrative and align with the company's values and purpose.Three Essential Stories for Business Owners: the origin story, the purpose story, and the value story. The origin story delves into how the company started and the founder's journey, providing a sense of connection and belonging for employees and customers. The purpose story articulates what the company stands for and its larger mission, uniting teams and attracting like-minded customers. Finally, the value story focuses on the transformation that the company brings to its customers' lives, going beyond product features to highlight the tangible benefits and outcomes.Tips for New Speakers: Rather than rushing through a speech or presentation, take a moment to breathe out, relax, and engage with the audience. By speaking to one person at a time, using facial expressions and hand gestures, and maintaining a steady pace, speakers can effectively convey their message and connect with their audience on a deeper level.QuoteWhen you tell your story, you give people permission to tell theirs.Connect with Stacia KeoghLinkedInInstagramTwitter/XWebsiteConnect with Victoria BennionTo learn more about working with us visit www.victoriabennion.com

ZOOMER SQUAD: TORONTO TO PROVIDE FREE DENTAL CARE SERVICE TO CITY-OPERATED LTC HOME RESIDENTS   Tasha Kheiriddin filled in for Libby Znaimer today. She was joined by Bill VanGorder, Chief Advocacy and Education Officer at CARP, Anthony Quinn, Chief Community & Benefits Officer at CARP and Lorne Bozinoff, President at Forum Research. The panel discussed Mayor Olivia Chow's announcement on the free mobile dental care program for the more than 2,600 residents of the 10 long-term care homes operated by the City of Toronto and more. TORONTO CONDUCTED THE CITY'S THIRD POTHOLE BLITZ OF THE YEAR OVER THE WEEKEND Tasha Kheiriddin was joined by Barbara Gray, General Manager of Transportation Services and Teresa Di Felice, Assistant Vice President, Government and Community Relations for CAA SCO. Kheiriddin and guests talk about the third pothole blitz conducted by the city of Toronto. Gray revealed the city will soon add "Patch Masters" to their equipment inventory. The patch is described online to be an all-weather material that can be used to fill potholes in wet or dry conditions. ISRAEL VS HAMAS PROTESTS AROUND THE WORLD CAUSE A RISE OF ANTI-SEMETIC SENTIMENT  Finally, Tasha Kheiriddin was joined by Warren Kinsella, former special assistant to Jean Chrétien and CEO of the Daisy Group. Pro-Palestinian protests blocked downtown Ottawa roads this weekend and some of the chants openly glorified Hamas' terror attacks of October 7. While the Prime Minister condemned these actions on X, many Canadians are saying our politicians need to do more to tackle the rising tide of hate as the Israel-Hamas war enters its seventh month. Kheiriddin also talks about the similar situation at Columbia University in the U.S. where classes were held virtually due to a surge in anti-Semitic statements on campus grounds.
