Greg Brady and the panel of: Anthony Furey, columnist, 640 Toronto Contributor Andrew Perez. Principal at Perez Strategies. Member of and strategist for the Liberal Party of Canada. Discuss: 1.Musk says he is forming new political party after fallout with Trump: I am skeptical about the success of a new party, but Musk does have practically an infinite amount of money to spend on elections… How could his new “America Party” end up hurting or helping Republicans/Democrats? Who loses more votes if Musk runs candidates? 2.At least dead in devastating central Texas flash floods, over 2 dozen remain missing: Did staff cuts at the National Weather Service leave Hill Country blind to the flood? Could campers have gotten an earlier heads-up? 3.Chow to pitch Toronto film industry on UK trip: Is this trade mission a genuine investment or just a taxpayer-funded European vacation for the mayor? 4.Part of Wilson Avenue to be closed for upcoming Coldplay concerts at Toronto's new Rogers Stadium: After Stray Kids fans needed two hours to leave the first show, how long do you think it will take fans to leave tonight, over/under 1.5 hours? Is closing Wilson all that was needed to get people out faster? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Greg Brady and the panel of: Ben Mulroney, Host of the Ben Mulroney Show 9 to Noon on the Corus Radio Network Ana Bailao, former Toronto city councillor, deputy mayor, housing expert Discuss: 1.One person dead after North York encampment fire: City left this encampment standing for months, was there no safe way to clear the site without real housing to offer? With every encampment blaze tying up dozens of firefighters, cops, and paramedics, are we spending more on emergency response than it would cost to house people safely in the first place? The mayor insists we must get people indoors after this tragedy but where are they going to go? 2.Police investigating Oshawa swarming attack advocates say may have been hate-motivated: If no slurs were heard but the hijab was yanked off, is it assault, hate crime, both? Durham police say they're considering hate motivation; Muslim advocates insist the motive is obvious. Who gets to decide what constitutes hate in Canada, investigators, courts or the targeted community? Time to make changes to the youth justice act? Should parents/guardians be held accountable? 3.After bomb threats at Canadian airports, services now back to ‘normal': Should NAV Canada publish at least a redacted threat summary once the RCMP rules nothing suspicious so the public knows what really happened? Should callers who phone in hoaxes face terrorism charges? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Greg Brady and the panel of: Ben Mulroney, Host of the Ben Mulroney Show 9 to Noon on the Corus Radio Network Ana Bailao, former Toronto city councillor, deputy mayor, housing expert Discuss: 1.Ana - perfect person to ask about multiplex development, and the watered-down six-plex legislation the city passed 17-7…but the dreaded words “pilot project” - feels like we do this so often - and it, can, in essence, make for a “boss” or “king/queen” in each particular city Ward - is that fair? To follow - there is noise, I can report, within the federal Liberal caucus about the word “blackmail” being used by Councillor Paula Fletcher about the requirement and regulations to get federal HAF $. Some advocates for housing are strongly suggesting the feds don't give the remaining $ to the city given they're not meeting prerequisites. What could happen here? 2.The socialist madness of Zohran Mamdani is a spreading contagion: Are there parallels to Toronto's mayoral race? Could this happen here? Some of his ideas are out there and extreme but are they all bad? 3.Toronto to install larger, more visible signs to warn drivers of speed cameras: Mayor wants larger signs, directed funding, and a limit on the number of infractions you can rack up before you get your first speeding ticket in the mail but could the problem be that some posted limits be unrealistically low in some areas?

Greg Brady and the panel of: Sharan Kaur, political strategist Laryssa Waler, Founder of Henley Strategies Discuss: 1.Toronto City Council votes to permit sixplexes in nine wards: The Mayor says sixplexes would make average rents about $830/month cheaper than condos, why are some councillors still clutching their pearls? Are some councillors really just guarding home prices instead of helping renters? What does this mean for parking? 2.This Canadian-owned MRI clinic in Buffalo says business is booming: Should OHIP cover a U.S. scan once the wait times reach a certain limit? Does cross-border medical care ease the pressure on Ontario wait-lists, or does it let politicians dodge fixing the backlog? 3.Some Toronto students offered Free Palestine and Free Tibet as yearbook quotes.
