Greg Brady and the panel of: Steve Paikin Author and Broadcaster, host of TVO's ‘The Agenda' Chloe Brown, policy analyst and former Toronto mayoral candidate. Discuss: 1-OK, many are talking about Mark Carney & responses to The Globe & Mail's Stephanie Levitz, & CBC's Rosemary Barton. Let's play the clips and see if you feel this is a tone and a dismissiveness that hurts Mark Carney - the more people who see moments like this? 2-I've never seen polling SO over the map - we're all noticing this, aren't we. Some Ontario Election polls had the Ford government pulling in 92-93 seats, some had them winning closer to 70 - 6 more than a majority. The last three US elections have been all over the place. So how often do YOU trust them? 3-I'm very saddened by the Hudson's Bay story. But I haven't shopped consistently there in maybe….15-16 years. Millions are like me. It was either less convenient or less practical. But is this just….we've moved into a different world. The giant department store can't thrive, and YET, the cheaper “big box” stores do. How do you see it? 4-Have a read at this - real risk for Canadian businesses moving to the States - but isn't there a risk for alienating American businesses here? We're kind of being outwardly….ugly? Towards American businesses that do employ Canadians? Have we done this with any other country in the last 60 years? Countries with abhorrent human rights records to workers in general, women, gay people - we buy their products, we let them play sports here, we don't ban immigrants from those countries - I'm worried that this is turning anti-US, not anti-Trump - what's the line for you? 5-JFK Files today? Why couldn't a better US President do this?! Have a theory we haven't heard - what's the answer to the question you'd most like to know? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Greg Brady and the panel of: Anthony Furey, columnist, 640 Toronto Contributor, council candidate for Don Valley West Ariella Kimmel, executive director of a new advocacy group called A Better City (ABC) Toronto Discuss: 1-We're probably a week away - less than that, from a federal election call - Parliament is supposed to be back in session a week from today - on March 24th - I think we all agree it won't be. This OBVIOUSLY will be a fight that many of us didn't think would happen 3 months ago. The narrative is - Justin Trudeau is/was the villain…time for him to go, time to make him pay - but the worst thing for the CPC happened….he left on his own. Are the Conservatives struggling to pivot? 2-I had a conversation on the weekend with - let's call them “undecided” voters - and one person thought Carney will just play keepaway as humanly often as possible, won't visit Trump, won't settle into talks to re-define trade - and that would benefit him. The other person, incredulously, was more thinking that's an unbelievably cynical thing to do - he's got 6-7 weeks to show he's up to this - and hiding from Trump will expose who and what he is - is one side more correct? 3-TTC Fare inspectors on buses today - is this any sort of sign the city IS getting more serious about fare evasion? 4- Chow to appear on CNN....The City won't entertain bids by American companies any longer....is this merely performative?

Greg Brady and the panel of: Laryssa Waler, Founder of Henley Strategies Sharan Kaur, Political strategist and partner at Sovereign Advisory Discuss: 1 - OK - how significant is today - look, I find it hard to root against people who make the decisions in our society - I want them to make the right ones…..but this just feels SO temporary. How artificial will the Carney-as-PM thing feel until an election is called and a result comes? 2 - Let's keep it eye-level for listeners - but is there anything remarkably interesting about Mark Carney's Cabinet choices - they really won't do much legislating given we're almost certainly going to an election call.. 3 - How will Trump talk about Carney? 4 - This story re: Toronto City Council and an unelected Council position.

Greg Brady and the panel of: Celina Caesar-Chavannes, Former Liberal MP and Parliamentary Secretary to the Prime Minister Bryan Passifiume, National politics reporter for the Toronto Sun Discuss: 1-Can anything come from the Ford/Leblanc meetings? I don't think it's a waste of time, but I'm skeptical we get much here. 2. We've talked about the UAW President Shawn Fain - when he goes from being very against Trump and now is FOR tariffs - do you see his POV? He wants American cars made in America. Don't we want Canadian things made in Canada also? 3. Mark Carney - a lot of people noted he avoided media during the Leadership run….he still is. Does this change? I think this is rather unique - and isn't just about a frontrunner campaign. What do you say? 4. Does this new regulation change how often people are going to go to the USA.

Greg Brady and the panel of: Brad Bradford, Toronto city councillor for Beaches - East York, Mark Saunders, former Toronto police chief, mayoral candidate Discuss: 1. City councillor Michael Thompson warns of more violence coming in response to the Piper's Arms mass shooting Friday night - who do we need to hear from.....isn't this good, that this is out there - but is the area and the residents - are they being informed and warned accordingly? 2. The Toronto Police podcast we spoke about yesterday on the show has been deleted...but a ton of questions and concerns about policing and that this was deemed OK in the first place. We have a secular society - and you can have beliefs of ANY sort....but in police uniforms, Mark - you can speak to this with considerable authority - you can't be being seen as having a bias of any sort - and you sure can't broadcast it. 3. Doug Ford - headed to Washington Thursday - we're all hopeful - we really are, that the whiplash effect of tariffs can be altered....what's your hope for what could happen?

Greg Brady and the panel of: Steve Paikin Author and Broadcaster, host of TVO's ‘The Agenda' Chloe Brown, policy analyst and former Toronto mayoral candidate. Discuss: 1. Regardless of polls all over the map, and the challenges afoot - I think two things are clear about the upcoming federal election. It is a TRUE heavyweight fight...we all think the "next" election is a critical one in turning the country's sails in a certain direction - but this is going to generate a ton of interest, eclipse voter apathy and indifference, and we probably will all be sick of the slogans, the platforms, and the mud-wrestling. Yes? Huge interest? Especially in stark contrast to the recent provincial election? 2. It's a bit inside - but the first two appointments by Mark Carney.....old-school Liberal cabinet ministers who fell well out of favour in controversial circumstances in the Trudeau era - Marco Mendicino as Chief of Staff to Carney, and David Lametti, the Justice Minister who had some embarrassing secret texts revealed in the Freedom Convoy/Emergencies Act era when the Inquiry happened regarding government direction. Like, right away - not sure you're telling Canada...you're moving along and so many lessons have been learned! 3. OIivia Chow did not attend the scene of the shooting in Scarborough this weekend.....I know, I know - we spend a lot of time on where she is, what she goes to, and how she explains it away afterwards - her myriad of explanations for snubbing the October 7th vigil were......not awesome - what about this one? 4. We need more public bathrooms AND garbage bins in Toronto - this gets us on the road to one of the two, does it not??? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Greg Brady and the panel of: Ben Mulroney, Host of the Ben Mulroney Show on 640 Toronto and nationally on teh Corus Talk Network Tara Henley, co-host - The Hub podcast Discuss: 1 - Mark Carney is the next Prime Minister of Canada - the Liberals have come out of this more unified, more decisive, and this was clearly their best choice. Trudeau being their worst, Freeland the 2nd worst - SO…..I think we'd agree, would we, the Conservatives know they're in much more of a fight than they ever anticipated back in December, yes? 2 - Chrystia Freeland - once deemed by some, the clear “next one up” after Justin Trudeau, received a pathetic 8 percent of the vote in the leadership - what are your observations of the role she played in getting this all happening, her campaign itself, the few MPs who backed her, and the end result? 3 - Doug Ford gave a rather noteworthy congrats to Carney - there's always that sense Ford loved having Justin Trudeau as a contrast to him…..does this start any sense that Ford would love that contrast by Carney carrying on as PM as long as possible…or does it matter given Ford now doesn't have to worry about an election until 2029? 4 - This Toronto/Scarborough shooting Friday evening - unbelievably rattling - are we ALMOST to the point where we shrug our shoulders about guns in major cities like Toronto…..and just be thankful no one was hurt? AND….back to policy - this was one where the CPC were just destroying the “soft on crime, bail not jail” Liberals - you would think people will understand not much will change re: illegal guns/violence/bail and parole issues without a change in Ottawa, yes?

Greg Brady and the panel of: Ben Mulroney, Host of The Ben Mulroney Show Ariella Kimmel, executive director of a new advocacy group called A Better City (ABC) Toronto Eric Lombardi, Founder of More Neighbours Toronto Discuss: 1. Lots of labour unions stepping up & wanting to take on the city of Toronto for a better deal - right now, inside workers w/ a pending Monday strike, now, library workers - the city has told its citizens they want to give everyone a place to live, make it more affordable, a warmer, more caring city - so aren't the unions right to push the City hard to dig in 2. Do we expect a more quiet week next week w/ tariffs? Republicans are buzzing with some discontent, markets were unsettled, surely every week just can't be like THIS week was... at contract time? 3. So - it's an easy win for Mark Carney and he'll be the next PM - what are first steps for him, and is one of them an Election call next week? Learn more about your ad choices.

Poilievre just being "more quiet" - what do you see/hear out there? 2- Tells me Pierre is SO effective in the House of Commons - this has hurt a bit since Parliament's been closed, hasn't it? 3- Economy is SO uncertain - and travel to the US is down - do you believe this is people being hesitant to spend and disposable income - or a legit visceral and emotional feeling towards the United States?
