According to the Insurance Bureau of Canada, the cost of insurance claims for replacing stolen vehicles in Canada soared to a record-breaking $1.5 billion in 2023, the second consecutive year auto theft claims costs have surpassed $1 billion. And the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said more than 1 million vehicles in the U.S. have been stolen annually during each of the past two years. It's statistics like those that prompted CARFAX Canada president Shawn Vording to give a keynote presentation at this year's Canada's Used Car Week in Toronto.

We discuss the ‘failed' attempt of the ‘recall campaign' in our weekly conversation with Mayor Gondek.   Next, according to the latest polling data, 63 percent of Albertans are in favour of keeping the ‘at-fault' car insurance system in place. Why isn't there support for Alberta's proposed ‘not-at-fault' system and what would these changes mean for Albertans?

RECOVERING POLITICIANS PANEL: TRUDEAU'S CARBON TAX FLOP 12:00-12:30 Marissa Lennox  is joined by George Smitherman, a Former Ontario Liberal MPP for Toronto Centre who also served as a health minister and deputy Premier, Janet Ecker Former Ontario PC MPP and finance minister and Cheri DiNovo,Former Ontario NDP MPP and recipient of the Order of Canada. Eight years of pushing fossil fuel taxes for climate action, but now, a seismic shift: the Prime Minister announced a suspension of the carbon tax for home heating oil for three years. This handed opposition leader Pierre Poilievre a prime moment to grill him in yesterday's Question Period. The move gives a leg up to one region, namely Atlantic Canada, where 40% of households rely on heating oil. Compare that to Ontario, where only 2% do. Predictably, other provinces like Ontario and Saskatchewan are now voicing their desire for similar exemptions for other fuels like propane and natural gas. Premier Moe said yesterday that if a deal isn't reached to exempt all forms of home heating from the carbon tax before winter hits, "Sask Energy will stop collecting and submitting the carbon tax on natural gas." So how does this play out? If exemptions aren't given, will provinces go rogue? And is this the start of the end for Trudeau's carbon tax? PROVINCE TO REDUCE MAMMOGRAM SCREENINGS FOR WOMEN 40+ 12:30-12:45 Marissa Lennox  is joined by Dr. David Jacobs, President of Ontario Association of Radiologists as well as Dr. Martin Yaffe, Breast Cancer researcher at Sunnybrook Research Institute, and The Ontario Institute for Cancer Research and a Professor at University of Toronto. The Ontario government is reducing the requirement of breast screening mammograms for women from age 50 to age 40 with the aim of contributing to earlier detection. The move will be implemented starting next Fall. According to Ontario's Minister of Health this will make it so that an additional 130,000 mammograms are completed in the province on an annual basis. WHY AN ONTARIO MUNICIPALITY IS CALLING ON OTTAWA TO DO ITS PART TO ADDRESS AUTO THEFT 12:45-1 PM Marissa Lennox  is joined by Jeff Knoll, Oakville Councillor for Ward 5 and chair of the Halton Police Board as well as Bryan Gast, VP, Investigative Services  of Équité Association. The Town of Oakville is calling on Ottawa to crack down on auto theft both locally and at the national level. On Oct 23rd, City Council unanimously voted in favour of endorsing a motion by Ontario's Big City Mayors to call on the feds to put more funding into the CBSA (Canada Border Services Agency) for inspections of shipping containers at Canadian ports since that is where organized crime ships out stolen cars to the world. They also want to see Ottawa implement a law that would require auto manufacturers to have anti-theft technologies in all new models of vehicles. The Insurance Bureau of Canada explained that auto theft claims for the region of Halton shot up by 200 per cent between 2018 and 2022. Earlier this month, The Port of Montreal received $150 million in funding from Ottawa to expand a container terminal project. But is there enough funding for additional inspections of those shipping containers?
