This week on the Rodgers Brief, I analyze the major law-related news stories of the week. The main topics this episode are; 1. The Emergency Act Inquiry in Ottawa. This week the protest 'leaders' take the stand, seemingly to show themselves as disorganized and non-violent. 2. The Ontario government has announced that it will use the Notwithstanding Clause in the Charter of Rights and Freedoms to stop a strike from happening in the school system. 3. A group of private citizens is trying to organize what they call the National Citizens Inquiry, which would look into the government response to the Covid-19 pandemic. A private inquiry does not have the legal legitimacy of a public inquiry, but may yet have some value. 4. Lisa Banfield has filed a lawsuit against the Federal and Nova Scotia governments for having charged and prosecuted her for supplying ammunition to her spouse, Gabriel Wortman. I assess the strength of the lawsuit, and identify some of its weaknesses. Other stories I mention include the Luomba case out of Quebec, dealing with racial profiling during traffic stops, an announcement that an independent land claims process has been agreed upon by First Nations leaders and the Federal government, and C-18, the Online News Act, which is a pay for clicks piece of legislation which has the potential to infringe considerably on our freedom of expression rights. I will be joining Jordan Bonaparte and Paul Palango tonight at 9:15 to discuss the Banfield lawsuit, and other Mass Casualty Commission issues.

He affirmed that we are in wave 6 but did not announce plans to reinstate masking, just strongly recommend that we continue it. Relations between Frito-Lay and Loblaws have come to an agreement and relations are decidedly less salty. Tiger Woods made his return to the Masters. What are the takeaways from his performance, and what might be on the horizon for the gold legend? What role does the media – and the technology that the media uses – play in bringing the humanity of modern wars, like Russia's viscous invasion of Ukraine, to the eyes of the world and how does that affect us? Now it looks like Elon Musk will not be joining the board of directors for Twitter. Good idea, bad idea, whose idea?

U.S. President Joe Biden met with Chinese President Xi Jinping today – their first official meeting in months – to discuss Russia's invasion of Ukraine, among other things. What happens to activists in Russia who are trying to spread the word of the outside world about the war in Ukraine? Arnold Schwarzenegger has released a video across multiple social media and online platforms, including Telegram, to inform the Russia people about the truth behind the war in Ukraine, condemn it, and tell President Putin to put an end to it. How much longer can Russia interfere with the spread of information from the outside world, and what does it mean for a society to be going through such strong uptick in blatant state censorship? Nearly 3,000 Canadian Pacific Railway Ltd. workers could be locked out this weekend. The company and union have yet to reach a deal. Guests: Ross Hull, Global News Meteorologist Henry Jacek.

The provincial and federal governments are committing millions in upgrades for the Honda plant in Alliston to produce hybrid cars. What does the investment mean for the future of electric vehicles in Ontario? New modeling from the Ontario COVID-19 Science Table is predicting more people will be hospitalized as restrictions are lifted. This -- as the province is set to scrap most mask mandates on Monday. And with mask mandates dropping, what happens to mask makers and sellers -- and the booming new mask industry that took off during COVID-19? The CBC's Haydn Watters found out.

We heard about the results from a study out of Western University that looked into how brain fog works... and how it's affecting people's lives. Imagine cutting into a sneaker, a bowling ball … or a taco. And finding out it's actually a very sneaky CAKE. That's the premise behind a new reality show premiering on Netflix today.
Last week, Ontario's chief medical officer announced that mask mandates will be lifted by March 21. But not everyone thinks it's a good idea. How do Ontarians navigate the new reality and get back to pre-pandemic sorts of interactions? To discuss potential concerns from various communities across the province, we welcome Globe and Mail health columnist André Picard; Sabina Vohra-Miller, founder of Unambiguous Science; and Dr. Peter Juni, scientific director of Ontario COVID-19 Science Advisory Table.

Jeff McArthur talks to Dr Peter Juni, Scientific Director of Ontario COVID-19 Science Advisory Table about the 4th wave seeing a shift from the elderly and LTC to young people and restaurants and nightclubs? The 4th wave and seeing a shift from the elderly and LTC to youth
Remember when everyone thought things would be back to normal by September? Instead, children are returning to classrooms with caseloads climbing. So how should parents prepare kids for the return to in-person schooling? Is it safe? Would they be better off being taught virtually? And when should we expect vaccines to be approved for those who are under the age of 12? For guidance, we turned to a pair of Medcan experts: Dr. Janice Weiss, director of child and youth, and Dr. Jack Muskat, clinical director of mental health. Episode 81 webpage. LINKS Dr. Janice Weiss provides further guidance for parents in this short YouTube video. Here's the Ontario COVID-19 Science Advisory Table brief that suggests, “barring catastrophic circumstances”, that kids should be educated with in-person learning. Learn about Medcan's Child & Youth Assessment, designed to provide parents with tailored strategies to help children reach their potential. Dr. Weiss and Dr. Muskat's guidance, that children are better off in school compared to virtual learning, is supported by Sick Kids' president and CEO, Dr. Ronald Cohn. “Schools should not only open in September, but need to stay open,” says Dr. Cohn. More here. Some good context on the risks to children of attending in-person schooling in the fourth wave in this Globe and Mail story by Wency Leung. Virtual schooling is thought to have contributed to the doubling of youth depression and anxiety during the pandemic, according to new analysis from JAMA Pediatrics finds. This CNN story spells it out in language for laypeople. “One in 4 adolescents globally are "experiencing clinically elevated depression symptoms, while 1 in 5 youth are experiencing clinically elevated anxiety symptoms." INSIGHTS Dr. Weiss and Dr. Muskat both believe that children should return to in-person schooling. Like many experts they approach the question from a cost-benefit perspective. “The issue really boils down to, what are the real physical risks of being at school versus what are the mental health issues from virtual learning?” Dr. Weiss asks. Children 12 and over have had the opportunity to be vaccinated. And statistics show that the vast majority of children under 12 who catch COVID-19 will be either asymptomatic or will have mild cold- or flu-like illnesses. Less than 1% of children who get COVID require hospitalization, according to Dr. Weiss. Serious complications, such as multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) are extremely rare, at less than 0.03%. Comparing the low physical risk with the much larger likelihood of mental health problems caused by virtual schooling (anxiety, depression, eating disorders, social isolation), Dr. Weiss and Dr. Muskat both conclude the analysis suggests children should be physically present. [01:35] One suggestion from Dr. Muskat: During back to school, recognize that kids pick up their anxiety from their parents. Children will benefit if parents can convey a strong, confident approach toward back to school. One approach? Be straight with them. Life has risks, but we can take precautions designed to minimize danger. Analogies can go a long way toward assuaging the anxiety of young people. The sort of risk-benefit analysis that suggests kids are better off with in-person schooling is applied in many other settings as well: We go swimming in lakes, even though there exists a risk of drowning. We go for a bike ride, wearing helmets to minimize risk of injury from a fall. “We cannot create 100% safety, nor should we, because life has risk,” Dr. Muskat says. “But what we want to do is go in with knowledge. And with confidence.” [08:35] To ward off the “re-entry anxiety” that some kids feel over back-to-school (similar to the anxiety that some adults feel over back-to-the-worksite), Dr. Jack Muskat suggests creating low-stress situations where you and the child rehearse what will happen on school days. Walk them to the school ahead of time. Set up “buddy” relationships with older family members or friends. Make a school lunch so that the child has a better idea of what they'll be eating on that first day. Pack the backpack in advance with the water bottle and mask in appropriate pockets. The idea is to reduce the uncertainties that swirl around back to school as much as possible. Make these experiences fun, so that the positive atmosphere spreads to the act of in-person school attendance. [10:11] When will vaccinations be available for children under the age of 12? The medical community expects news to come in the fall on that front, says Dr. Janice Weiss. Efficacy and safety data is expected to be published for Pfizer and Moderna toward the end of September or in October. Depending on the results there, health authorities may elect to make the vaccine available to the next younger age bracket, which would be for children aged 5 to 12 years old. So vaccinations could be coming for more children before the school year is out. [16:32] Some parents are reluctant to send children to school if schools are just going to close down again anyway. Does Dr. Janice Weiss expect schools to shut down during the Delta variant's fourth wave? “It depends on the virulence and the seriousness of the variant of concern,” says Dr. Weiss. “So if you get a variant that escapes the vaccination, then that would be concerning. If we see huge trajectories upwards of community infection, hospital admission, ICU admission, that would be a concern. So I think you have to look at local transmission variance of concern. It's a multifactorial decision.” With those qualifications in mind, Dr. Weiss believes that a shutdown is unlikely in the next few months. “I think that for what we're seeing so far, prediction wise, yes, schools will stay open,” she concludes. “When the community transmission and rates are low, the general infectivity raised within the school will remain low. And that's why we're really strongly encouraging everybody... get your vaccination, that is the best protection for society for your children.” [18:24] Finally, Dr. Jack Muskat suggests going a bit easy on your children over the next little bit. The situation is evolving, the world is a bit strange with everyone in masks, so consider not putting the usual amounts of pressure on children over things like performance in school. Dr. Muskat uses himself as an example. “I'm finding it's taking me twice as long to get things done when I'm wearing a mask,” he says, “because I don't have as much peripheral vision. I'm finding that I want to do four things in a day. And I can only get two done.” There's a fatigue factor as well, he says. “One of the reasons people quit habits and routines — they set goals too high in the beginning.” Apply this to the school year by making things comparatively easy for children. Then, once they're settled, you can focus on things like homework and good grades. [21:17]

The Bill Kelly Show Podcast: The Ontario government will be requiring all high-risk settings in the province to enact COVID-19 vaccine policies by Sept. 7 in response to increased transmissibility of the Delta variant. Dr. Kieran Moore, Ontario's chief medical officer of health, made the announcement at Queen's Park Tuesday afternoon and said the decision factors in rising cases and slowing vaccine rates. Individuals will need to provide proof of full COVID-19 vaccination, a medical reason for not having COVID-19 vaccines, or they will need to complete a COVID-19 vaccine educational session. For those who do not provide proof of receiving two COVID-19 vaccines, they will be required to participate in “regular” antigen testing. However, it wasn't immediately clear how often that screening would need to take place. We get the reaction to Ontario's new vax policy in secondary schools. GUEST: Karen Littlewood, President of the Ontario Secondary School Teachers' Federation - Reaction to Ontario's new vax policy in licensed retirement homes GUEST: Dr. Vivian Stamatopoulos, Co-Founder of Doctors for Justice in Long-Term Care, Professor at Ontario Tech University - Employees, contractors, volunteers and students at hospitals as well as home and community care service providers will be covered under the required policies. Paramedic services, post-secondary institutions, retirement homes, women's shelters, group homes, and licensed home daycares will also be required to enact policies. Why didn't we just mandate vaccinations? GUEST: Dr. Kieran Moore, Chief Medical Officer of Health for the Province of Ontario - COVID-19 vaccines will be mandatory for most major sports venues in Toronto, including Scotiabank Arena and BMO field, as of next month. Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment (MLSE) announced on Tuesday that all employees, event staff and guests will be required to provide proof of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test result to gain access to their arenas, stadium and restaurants by mid-September. Other venues MLSE owns or operates include Coca-Cola Coliseum, Ford Performance Centre, BMO Training Ground and the OVO Athletic Centre.

Surgery delays, addiction, a steep drop off in ER visits, all contributed to a spike in excess deaths during the pandemic beyond COVID deaths.

The Bill Kelly Show Podcast: New modelling data released by the province suggests the third wave is now finally "cresting" but the current situation remains very "precarious." Experts with Ontario's COVID-19 science advisory table presented the new data during a news conference on Thursday, as infection numbers in the province dropped below the 4,000 mark for several days. Brown said the third wave cresting is due to lower mobility rates. He said that while retail, recreation and transit mobility has fallen significantly, workplace mobility, which refers to essential workers travelling to job sites, remains high. The science table is now calling for even stronger measures to curb case growth. Projections released on Thursday show that without stronger measures, daily cases would remain above 2,000 in June. ALSO: A weekly breakdown of when people in Ontario will have access to COVID vaccines GUEST: Dr. Zain Chagla, an Infectious Disease Specialist with St. Joseph’s Hospital and an Associate Professor in the Division of Infectious Diseases and Department of Medicine with McMaster University - Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan is launching an independent, external review into sexual misconduct in the Canadian Armed Forces led by former Supreme Court justice Louise Arbour. The review will centre around providing recommendations to set up an independent reporting system so that military members can share allegations of sexual misconduct outside of the military chain of command — a key request by victims and survivors who say they have for too long faced reprisals for coming forward. GUEST: Stephanie Carvin, Associate Professor of International Affairs at the Norman Paterson School of International Affair at Carleton University, Former National Security Analyst for CSIS - In 1993’s Groundhog Day, the character played by actor Bill Murray relives the same day over and over again. Fast forward to 2021 and you couldn’t blame Ontario’s 400,000 retail and small business owners for feeling the same way. With the third lockdown in full swing, Ontario retailers have had to hire and fire staff, buy and markdown inventory, and open and close stores in a never-ending merry-go-round of financial and emotional pain and uncertainty. Stuck in a holding pattern and frustrated with governments that appear to move in slow motion, these entrepreneurs have had to innovate just to tread water in an industry at the forefront of COVID-19’s wrath. With non-essential retailers closed and essential retailers capped at 25% capacity, there is limited cash flow to help pay never-ending bills. And don’t forget about the debt that small businesses have incurred during the pandemic. The Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB) estimates that on average, each small business owes $170,000. GUEST: Bruce Winder, Retail analyst and author - Doctors and other front-line professionals, backed by Canadian celebrities, have banded together to get accurate vaccine information to those most at risk of contracting COVID-19. The This Is Our Shot campaign launched Wednesday was driven largely by groups that have been reaching out to and advocating for racialized communities bearing the brunt of the pandemic. The goal is to dispel myths and to answer questions in more than two dozen languages. Celebrities, including actor Ryan Reynolds, crooner Michael Buble and Olympic hockey star Hayley Wickenheiser, are pushing the campaign by posting photos of themselves on social media wearing This Is Our Shot T-shirts.

Chapter 1: Switch Health’s reviews online are below two stars. It’s because when you hear stories like the one from Toronto Sun columnist Sue-Ann Levy, you will understand why.

The resident called Switch Health 15 times, which he notes has been very inefficient. Guest: Sue-Ann Levy, Toronto Sun Investigative Columnist. Chapter 2: As COVID-19 scythed through Ontario’s long-term care homes, a former provincial inspector said it was horrifying and infuriating to watch unfold. Problems like overcrowding, resident neglect, and lack of infection prevention and control, all helped the novel coronavirus spread rapidly through Ontario nursing homes, leaving more than 3,700 people dead. Guest: Carolyn Jarvis, Global News Chief Investigative Correspondent Chapter 3: Following months of public pressure prompted by a surge in COVID-19 cases, the Ontario government has finally announced its paid sick leave program. The Ontario COVID-19 Worker Income Protection Program is retroactive, beginning April 19 and ending on Sept. 25. It includes access to three paid sick days, and the province has agreed to reimburse employers 100 per cent of the employee’s wage for up to $200 a day. But many are wondering if it’s time for other provinces to follow suit. Guest: Harry Bains, Provincial Minister of Labour.

The program is set to expire in September. GUEST: Monte McNaughton, Ontario’s Labour Minister GUEST: Andrew McDougall, Professor of Political Science with the University of Toronto - Ontario's auditor general says the province's nursing homes were woefully unprepared for the onslaught of COVID-19 pandemic due to years of neglect. Bonnie Lysyk cited overcrowding, poor ministry oversight, and a severe staffing shortage that existed before the pandemic struck. Her report says both the provincial government and nursing-home sector had failed to heed lessons learned from the SARS epidemic, while concerns raised repeatedly for years went unaddressed. GUEST: Dr. James Tiessen, Director, Master of Health Administration & Community Care and Associate Professor with Ryerson University - Publicly funded antidepressant prescriptions for youth have more than doubled over the past decade in the country’s six largest provinces, an ongoing investigation by the Toronto Star and the Investigative Journalism Bureau has found. There was a 240-per-cent increase in antidepressant prescriptions for people under 18 paid for by public drug plans in B.C., Alberta, Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Quebec between 2009 and 2019. In Ontario, the story is more complicated. Publicly funded benefit claims for youth antidepressants rose by 224 per cent in the first eight years of the decade, in line with the overall national portrait. Then, in 2018 and 2019, the newly adopted OHIP+ covered all prescriptions for Ontarians under the age of 25, making it tougher to assess increases after this point. Like many Canadian doctors, Toronto pediatrician Dr. Michael Peer said he is writing far more prescriptions today than he did 15 or 20 years ago — reluctantly.
