A question mark over how Canada's Prime Minister, Mark Carney, will perform. The Liberal Party won the country's election yesterday, beating the Conservative party, and locking down a fourth term. The win means Carney will keep hold of the top job he took over from Justin Trudeau six weeks ago. Globe and Mail Ottawa Bureau Chief Robert Fife told Mike Hosking he has no experience in retail policy, but headed the banks of Canada and England. He says given these credentials, he should do okay, but there's been no real opportunity to see him perform as Prime Minister. There's also doubts Carney will be able to secure a majority government, as he's currently sitting at 169 seats of the 172 needed. Fife doesn't think he'll get up to this number, but may reach 170.

Lately, we're sharing our darkest secrets with robots. The market for AI mental health aides is booming but how does it actually feel to bond with a therapy bot? Our guest, Graham Isador, just started his job as The Globe's new Healthy Living reporter. Traditional therapy can be expensive and scarce, so Graham turned to AI and found a therapist who's cheap, always available and not at all human. To his surprise, he kind of liked it. Graham describes his strange experience turning over his mental health to a chatbot. His article on the topic appears this week in The Globe.Also, Vass and Katrina discuss what voice they would choose for their own AI therapists. You can also hear about the mother who says an AI chatbot led to her son's death over on The Globe and Mail podcast Machines Like Us.Subscribe to the Lately newsletter, where the Globe's online culture reporter Samantha Edwards unpacks more of the latest in business and technology.Find the transcript of today's episode here.We'd love to hear from you.

For 180 years, The Globe and Mail has covered the biggest issues and events in Canada. To commemorate its history, editor John Ibbitson and more than two dozen Globe and Mail journalists dug into the archives to answer the question: “how did the Globe's coverage intersect with Canada and influence its story?”. The answer to that question can be found in the new book, ‘A Nation's Paper: The Globe and Mail in the Life of Canada.Menaka Raman-Wilms hosted a panel discussion in front of a live audience with Ibbitson and Globe reporters Ann Hui and Kelly Grant about the essays they wrote, the times the Globe was ahead of the curve and the instances where the paper got it wrong.Questions?

GUEST: Varun Sriskanda - Member of the Small Ownership Landlords of Ontario X(formerly twitter): @VarunSriskanda And finally, Alex speaks with the former vice chair of the CRTC and current Sr. Fellow with the Macdonald-Laurier Institute, Peter Menzies about why big tech are able to circumvent the Online News Act and freely access Canadian news.

We've been hearing a lot of fallout this week over a Globe and Mail report. It revealed that the provincial government spent more than 35 million dollars, from April to August last year, on travel nurses. Other expenses for those nurses - everything from cab rides to an air fryer - totaled millions more. Tony Wakeham is the member of the House of Assembly for Stephenville-Port au Port, and the Leader of the Official Opposition.

We're paying millions and millions for travel nurses in this province, for everything from salaries to taxis and cable bills. NAPE president Jerry Earle stopped by to talk about the revelations.
