Inside the Village - A weekly podcast featuring newsmakers in Ontario
Send us a textBy every measure, violence is skyrocketing inside Ontario schools.According to a survey released earlier this year by the Ontario School Board Council of Unions (OSBCU), nearly 75 per cent of education workers experience violent or disruptive incidents in their work area, with more than a third facing these incidents daily. Among educational assistants and child and youth workers, the numbers are even more alarming: 95.8 per cent — nearly every single one — say they experience violence at work.Data recently released to Global News under freedom of information legislation was equally shocking: the level of violence reported by school boards to the Ministry of Education has risen by 77 per cent since Doug Ford's Progressive Conservatives took office, with more than 4,400 incidents reported in the 2023-24 year alone.This exclusive story from Sudbury.com, published just a few hours ago, is even more evidence of the crisis facing school boards across the province.On tonight's episode of Closer Look, we speak to two experts who understand the problem as well as anyone: Joe Tigani, the president OSBCU, and Darby Mallory, co-author of a University of Ottawa report titled ‘Running on Fumes: Violence, Austerity, and Institutional Neglect in Ontario Schools.'Hosted by Village Media's Michael Friscolanti and Scott Sexsmith, Closer Look is a new daily podcast that goes way beyond the headlines with insightful, in-depth conversations featuring our reporters and editors, leading experts, key stakeholders and big newsmakers.Fresh episodes drop every Monday to Friday at 7 p.m. right in your local news feed — and on the show's dedicated website: closerlookpodcast.ca.

Season Six, Episode Two of The Food Professor Podcast, presented by Caddle, blends sharp industry commentary with a fascinating guest interview. Hosts Michael LeBlanc and Dr. Sylvain Charlebois kick off with a rapid-fire news roundup before diving deep into the global lobster story with award-winning journalist and author Greg Mercer.The news segment sets the tone with big changes in consumer packaged goods. Kraft Heinz's decision to split operations sparks debate on the future of “bigger is better” corporate strategies, recalling the infamous ketchup wars and highlighting how local plants may be impacted. The hosts also explore the collapse of Yves, a once-beloved Canadian plant-based food brand, and the broader struggles facing Beyond Meat and other players in the competitive, margin-tight meat alternatives market. Meal kits return to the spotlight with fresh survey data showing usage doubling since pre-pandemic levels, despite consumer pushback over price and packaging waste. Other highlights include Canadian trade friction over canola biofuel, positive signals in Canada–India relations, and Doug Ford's controversial Crown Royal protest following Diageo's U.S. plant shift. Wrapping up, the hosts acknowledge leadership transitions at McDonald's Canada and the Retail Council of Canada.The second half welcomes Greg Mercer, investigative reporter for The Globe and Mail and author of The Lobster Trap: The Global Fight for a Seafood on the Brink. Mercer shares his journey into journalism, the painstaking work of investigative reporting, and the inspirations behind his first book. He explains how lobster evolved from a “cockroach of the sea” to a global luxury product, and why the industry now sits at a dangerous crossroads. From the collapse of Rhode Island's lobster fishery to escalating tensions between Indigenous and commercial fisheries in Nova Scotia, Mercer paints a vivid picture of an industry both lucrative and fragile. He examines the outsized role of China as a market driver, the looming threat of climate change, and the urgent need for ecological—not just economic—policy decisions to prevent history from repeating the cod fishery collapse of the 1990s.

In Hamilton, Ont., Transport Minister Chrystia Freeland delivers opening remarks at the Made in Canada: Ferries and Rail Summit. The event brings together industry leaders, suppliers, and government officials to discuss how they can use domestic steel and aluminum to build transportation infrastructure. Also speaking are Tammy Oommen (head of strategic initiatives at ArcelorMittal Dofasco), John Zerucelli (secretary of state for labour), Prabmeet Sarkaria (Ontario's minister of transportation), and Elvis Loveless (Newfoundland and Labrador's minister of transportation and infrastructure). Jamie Moses (Manitoba's minister of business, mining, trade and job creation) and Doug Ford (premier of Ontario) provide remarks by videoconference. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres told reporters that Papua New Guinea has long led the charge for climate justice, as the UN Climate Conference approaches in Brazil, “the world must move faster to keep the 1.5 degrees limit alive” and also to produce a credible path to achieve the $1.3 trillion dollar objective decided in Baku during the last Climate Conference. During a press conference today (02 Sep) with Prime Minister James Marape, the Secretary-General said he was honoured to be the first UN Secretary-General to visit Papua New Guinea and to join in celebrating fifty years of the country's independence. For the past five decades, he said, Papua New Guineans have taken on a profound task: to weave their breathtaking diversity into one people, and one country that leaves no one behind, Guterres noted. He also reiterated his “strong appeal” for the reform of the international financial architecture that “must reflect the world of today with a much larger participation of developing countries in its institutions and their decision-making process.” “This is a basic condition for them to better serve countries like yours. This includes real action on debt relief; tripling the lending capacity of multilateral development banks; and the mobilization of private capital at scale to the service of developing countries,” Guterres added. Tomorrow, the Secretary-General will address a special session of the Parliament to mark the 50th anniversary of the country's independence.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/policy-and-rights--3339563/support.

The first two serious contenders for the federal NDP leadership have emerged in Heather McPherson and Avi Lewis, according to recent reporting. But the challenge they have ahead of them to rehabilitate the ailing New Democratic Party is enormous. Could the path laid out by Manitoba's Wab Kinew be the answer?This week on The Numbers, we discuss where the NDP goes from here as its leadership race officially begins. We also chat about whether we're seeing any corroboration of last week's polling numbers that showed some Liberal slippage, plus the potential for a couple of federal byelections in the next few months. Then, we break down the results of the Spruce Woods byelection in Manitoba, where the incumbent PCs were nearly upset in a safe riding. Plus, new poll numbers in Ontario disagree on where Doug Ford stands — is he in a dominant position, or just a really good one? Finally, Philippe ups the ante with another Quiz.Looking for even more of The Numbers?

Pour ce dernier épisode de notre série boycott, retour quelques mois en arrière, en mars 2025, avec des appels qui se multiplient sur les réseaux sociaux pour ne plus acheter de produits américains. Cette initiative qui prend sa source au Canada et en Europe du Nord fait partie dans un mouvement plus large de protestation envers la politique commerciale et anti-immigration de Donald Trump. Un appel au boycott du « made in USA » et qui va devenir viral sur internet. Nous sommes début 2025, un peu plus d'un mois après le retour de Donald Trump au pouvoir. Les médias se font l'écho de vidéos postées sur les réseaux sociaux mettant en scène des consommateurs dans des supermarchés ou chez eux incitant à ne plus acheter américain. « La guerre est officiellement déclarée et si vous êtes Canadien, c'est le moment ou jamais d'acheter exclusivement des produits canadiens », déclare une femme. « Montrons-leur avec notre porte-monnaie, qu'on ne peut pas faire n'importe quoi avec le Canada », dit une autre femme. C'est d'abord au Canada que le mouvement prend de l'ampleur dès le mois de février 2025 : le pays est alors sous le coup des droits de douanes américains, mais surtout des menaces de Donald trump, qui veut faire du Canada le 51ᵉ État américain. Les politiciens canadiens s'en mêlent, et notamment Doug Ford, le Premier ministre de l'Ontario, qui ordonne au plus grand revendeur d'alcool d'État d'arrêter de vendre des marques américaines. « À partir d'aujourd'hui, LCBO, le plus grand acheteur de vins et spiritueux au monde va commencer à enlever les produits américains de ses rayons. » À lire aussiAu Canada, un boycott des États-Unis à l'échelle individuelle « C'est un énorme coup dur pour les producteurs américains, Chaque année, la régie de la province vend pour près d'un milliard de dollars canadiens de vins, bières, cidres, pétillants et spiritueux en provenance des États-Unis. » Une décision qui ne sera pas sans conséquences, les ventes d'alcools américains s'effondrent de 80 % au Canada dans les semaines qui suivent. Quant au secteur du tourisme américain, il perd 12,5 milliards de dollars en dépenses de visiteurs. Tiktokeuse en français L'Europe n'est pas en reste. En France, des milliers de personnes appellent au boycott des produits de consommation « made in USA », tels que Nike, Coca-Cola, Starbucks ou encore le constructeur automobile Tesla qui voit ses ventes s'effondrer, avec notamment 86 % d'immatriculation en moins en Suède en juillet. Les pays scandinaves sont, eux aussi, fers de lance dans le boycott des produits américains. Au Danemark, un groupe Facebook intitulé « Boycottez les produits des États-Unis » dépasse les 94 000 membres. À lire aussiL'appel au boycott des produits américains Que reste-t-il aujourd'hui de ces appels au boycott et ont-ils été suivis d'effets ? L'influenceuse d'Urbania, Maria Kounkou tente une réponse : « Si les effets économiques pour certains secteurs ou entreprises sont bien réels, le boycott des produits américains reste surtout une arme politique ».
Kory Teneycke, conservative strategist, co-founder of Rubicon Strategy, and three times campaign manager to Premier Doug Ford, joins Rudyard Griffiths to analyze the political dynamics as Parliament returns in mid-September. They examine Prime Minister Mark Carney's early challenges, from trying to deliver on ambitious promises like internal free trade and major infrastructure projects, managing a potentially massive budget deficit, to holding together his progressive coalition. They also discuss Pierre Poilievre's return to Parliament, his need to reset his approach and how Canada's political landscape has effectively become a two-party race, with the NDP's collapse creating opportunities for both the Liberals and Conservatives.

In July, Mark Carney made it clear to public workers that there would be a tightening of the belt. Ministers were told to save 15% from their departmental budgets over the next three years.

This week on rabble radio, rabble editor Nick Seebruch sits down with Martha Hradowy, newly elected president of the Ontario Secondary School Teachers' Federation (OSSTF). As the head of one of the largest education unions in Canada, Hradowy steps into leadership at a pivotal moment for Ontario's public education system. The two discuss Hradowy's vision and goals for the federation, and the urgent challenges facing students and education workers under Premier Doug Ford's government. From overcrowded classrooms to disappearing supports and the growing pressure on frontline staff, what has Ford's education agenda really meant for Ontario? About Martha Hradowy and OSSTF Martha Hradowy is an education worker, union activist, and the first-ever education support staff member elected as president of OSSTF/FEESO in the Federation's 106-year history. Hradowy began her career in the Greater Essex County District School Board, working as both an educational assistant and a developmental service worker. Her union leadership began at the grassroots, serving as president of the educational support staff bargaining unit in District 9 for over a decade. She was elected to the OSSTF/FEESO provincial executive in 2017, re-elected in 2019, and twice elected as vice-president in 2021 and 2023. She helped create the Women's Advocate Program, worked to advance equity initiatives, and led efforts to defend public education against privatization and underfunding. She is an active member of the Windsor and District Labour Council and has served on the executive board of the Ontario Federation of Labour. She continues to build strong relationships across the labour movement to ensure OSSTF/FEESO is a force for social and economic justice in Ontario. OSSTF/FEESO is a strong, independent, socially active union that promotes and advances the cause of public education and the rights of students, educators and educational workers. While establishing working conditions for its members, OSSTF/FEESO also works to build strong public services, preserve academic freedom, prevent the privatization and commercialization of our educational institutions, ensure that students receive an education free of bias and discrimination and provide an equitable opportunity for all students to succeed in a strong, well-funded public education system.
