It's a new era for corruption in Canada, but the coverage isn't keeping pace. Meanwhile, American outlets are breaking stories about Doug Ford and Brookfield. Why covering corruption isn't worth the risk and the expense for many Canadian outlets, and why the reporting that does happen often doesn't make a difference. U of T's Dr. Jack Cunningham co-hosts.

Premier Doug Ford recently declared that he thought it was time for Ontario to start electing judges, ranting against "bleeding heart" jurists and suggesting that all appointments are political. Could tougher judges indeed help fix our system? What's the best way to ensure judicial independence, and who gets to define it? To discuss, we're joined by Donna Kellway President of the Ontario Crown Attorneys' Association Boris Bytensky President of the Criminal Lawyers' Association of Ontario Peter Copeland Deputy director of domestic policy at the Macdonald-Laurier Institute and former director of policy to the solicitor general of Ontario and Shakir Rahim Director of the criminal justice program at the Canadian Civil Liberties AssociationSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford has sent a letter to Prime Minister Mark Carney outlining what projects he believes are in Ontario's best economic interest. Steve Paikin and John Michael McGrath discuss how the relationship between the two levels of government is unfolding. Ontario's budget is being delivered on May 15th, but, unlike in the past, announcements on the province's spending aren't tightly guarded secrets. Steve and John Michael examine what's been announced so far and how much it will cost you. The Ontario Liberals have official party status, which gives them privileges at Queen's Park that they haven't had for a while. It's a big change for them, but they're still limited in what they can do faced by a majority government.

Plus, Premier Doug Ford took aim at the federal Liberals over failed efforts at bail reform, pledging to take a stronger stance on crime in Ontario and calling out judges for acting like activists. And finally, with the balance of power in the House of Commons teetering towards a Liberal majority, Green Party Leader Elizabeth May is campaigning to become the Speaker of the House.

The 90-day reprieve on Donald Trump's global tariffs do not extend to Canada, so Ontario is offering tax breaks for businesses. Steve Paikin and John Michael McGrath discuss why these temporary measures might need to be followed by long term solutions. There will be a 2-year feasibility study into Doug Ford's plan for a tunnel underneath the 401. Steve and JMM discuss the project's inevitable high price tag and other ways the province could ease congestion. The province is expanding strong mayor powers to 169 more municipalities in Ontario. These powers had already been given to mayors in larger cities to cut through red tape and get housing built, but is that happening?

#CANADA: PREMIER DOUG FORD OF ONTARIO OFFERS A DEAL TO THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION. CONRAD BLACK, NATIONAL POST 1950 ONTARIO
Donald Trump's Liberation Day has unleashed a suite of tariffs on the world, but Canada has escaped any additional ones. Steve Paikin and John Michael McGrath examine what effect the tariffs Canada is facing are having on the economy. A former executive assistant to Premier Doug Ford violated the province's lobbying rules, according to Integrity Commissioner J. David Wake. The violations occurred during lobbying for clients' land to be removed from the Greenbelt. Nico Fidani-Diker also offered Toronto Maple Leafs tickets to "public office holders" putting them into conflict of interest. Steve Paikin and John Michael McGrath examine the latest chapter in the Greenbelt scandal and the implications for the RCMP investigation into it. With every election comes inevitable "bozo eruptions," which is when a politicians is caught saying something unsavoury, which sometimes gets them kicked out of elected politics. Steve and JMM examine a few stories including former Liberal candidate Paul Chiang, and how Mark Carney fumbled his response.

Instead, hiring came in stronger than expected, with 155,000 jobs added across the U.S. economy—even as corporate media and left-leaning economists warn daily of a looming slowdown. Professional and business services led the way with 57,000 new jobs, followed by financial activities with 38,000 and manufacturing with 21,000. In other words, despite the policy “uncertainty” and alleged “downbeat” consumer mood cited by critics of the Trump administration's trade agenda, businesses kept hiring at a healthy clip.

Today, we're looking at Pierre Poilievre's rally in British Columbia, where a huge crowd turned out to support the Conservative leader in region that will be crucial to deciding which party forms the next government. Plus, new allegations of plagiarism have been published in the National Post regarding Prime Minister Mark Carney's Oxford doctoral thesis, which cites 10 instances of plagiarism according to experts who reviewed the material. And finally, with President Trump targeting vehicles made outside the U.S. for tariffs, Premier Doug Ford is saying he plans to inflict as much pain as possible on American consumers, while trying to spare Canadian consumers. Is such a thing even possible, given the close connection between automakers in Ontario and the U.S.?
It was bad enough last week when Doug Ford told Pierre Poilievre he didn't have time to campaign for him. But now Ford's top strategist says Poilievre is heading for defeat unless he changes his campaign. And he has the polls to back that up. What's really happening -- Chantal Hebert and Rob Russo have their say.
Prime Minister Mark Carney has called a snap election for April 28. John Michael McGrath and The Trillium's Jessica Smith Cross discuss how the Liberal Party's fortunes have changed amidst United States President Donald Trump's trade threats. John Michael and Jess examine the "Trump bump" and how Canada's premiers are benefiting from it, including Doug Ford, who has seen his approval rating skyrocket. A number of supervised consumption sites are set to close in Ontario at the start of April. Contradictory statements from lawyer representing the province and Minister of Health Sylvia Jones on whether these sites can relocate are confusing advocates for the sites.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The federal election has only been officially underway since Sunday, and a few stories are dominating the headlines.Both the Liberals and the Conservatives are facing allegations of foreign interference, which has once again resurfaced questions about why Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre refuses to get his security clearance to be briefed on such issues.Liberal leader Mark Carney continues to face scrutiny for his time in the private sector, in particular his role at Brookfield Asset Management, which moved its headquarters from Toronto to New York during his tenure.Meanwhile, comments from Alberta premier Danielle Smith to American conservative media, as well as a continued cold shoulder from Ontario premier Doug Ford, raise the question of whether the country's two most prominent Conservative premiers are going to be bigger liabilities than assets for Poilievre in this campaign.Catherine Cullen and Jason Markusoff — the hosts of CBC's politics podcast House Party, which you can find here — break it all down.For transcripts of Front Burner, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts

Canada's most populous province has imposed a twenty-five percent surcharge on electricity exports to the United States in response to tariffs imposed by Washington. The premier of Ontario, Doug Ford, said he would be prepared to cut off power supplies altogether unless the US changed course. He said the surcharge would raise a total of up to four hundred thousand dollars a day from the states of New York, Michigan and Minnesota. On Sunday, Canada's next Prime Minister, Mark Carney, said the national government was right to retaliate against US tariffs. He said Canada would maintain its own duties on US goods until the Americans showed some respect. We hear from Yasir Naqvi, from Mr Carney's Liberal Party.Also in the programme: Thousands of people are reported to have fled Syria after violent attacks on the minority Alawite community; and as Ukraine peace negotiations begin in Saudi Arabia, we'll hear from a former Prime Minister of Russia who's now a Putin critic.(File Photo: Ontario Premier Doug Ford responds to US President Donald Trump's new 25% tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada.
