Send us a textDoug Ford is making good on his promise to ban speed cameras, calling the devices nothing but a “cash grab” by Ontario municipalities.Premier Ford said when the house returns in October, his Progressive Conservatives will introduce legislation that prevents cities and towns from operating automated speed enforcement (ASE) cameras.In their place, the government is promising to create a new fund for other traffic-calming measures such as speed bumps, roundabouts, raised crosswalks, curb extensions and signage. Ford's announcement flies in the face of advice provided by numerous expert organizations, including SickKids Hospital, the Ontario Association of Chiefs of Police, and the Ontario Traffic Council.Research shows that automated cameras are not only effective at reducing speeds, they are actually widely supported by the general public. Many municipalities also reject the argument that the cameras are a “cash grab,” saying the bulk of revenue gets reinvested in road safety measures.Joining us on tonight's Closer Look podcast is a panel of guests with plenty to say about Ford's speed camera plan: Pamela Fuselli, president and CEO of the injury prevention charity Parachute; Michael Stewart of the Canadian Automobile Association; and Jack Hauen, a reporter at Village Media's The Trillium.Hosted by Village Media's Michael Friscolanti and Scott Sexsmith, and produced by Derek Turner, 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.

We hear your reaction to Premier Doug Ford's decision to ban speed cameras. Our guests are Toronto Star's Queen's Park bureau chief Rob Benzie and Toronto Coun. Josh Matlow, who sits on the board of directors for the Association of Municipalities of Ontario.

As we stand on the brink of a potential World War III, the recent moves by world leaders shine a stark light on the dire situation we face. Leaders like Zelensky and PM Mark Carney emerge as pivotal figures who embody hope and solutions, while figures such as Trump and Netanyahu are increasingly viewed as obstacles to progress. The urgency of the moment is underscored by Secretary Hegseth's call to all generals to gather —a move that seems more theatrical than strategic—as tensions rise with Putin provocatively challenging NATO.Even high-profile personalities like Jimmy Kimmel and James Comey are feeling the heat of the rising tide of fascism. The climate is more charged than ever, and we must not remain passive.Meanwhile, Premiers Danielle Smith of Alberta and Doug Ford of Ontario are protesting Mark Carney's court challenge on the Notwithstanding Clause.In this era of chaos, the Scandal Panel, featuring voices like Keith Leslie, Mark Cripps, and Host Laura Babcock, has risen to defend our fundamental rights, passionately advocating for freedom of speech and democracy in the face of a global shift towards autocracy. Now is the time for us to unite and take action. We cannot afford to be silent. Join this pro-democracy community by commenting, subscribing, liking, and sharing. Together, we can stand firm against the forces threatening our freedoms and build a future where democracy prevails. Your voice matters—let's make it heard!

Cutting door-to-door service, reducing delivery days, and eliminating some rural post offices. Calling it an “existential crisis” the federal government is overhauling how Canada Post can operate.

Send us a textCatch and release? Chris Scott now knows the process firsthand. The rookie MPP for Sault Ste. Marie was arrested Sunday night for alleged spousal abuse and released on bail the following day. He is charged with one count of assault and one count of assault with a weapon — the weapon being “a high chair,” according to court documents. (None of the allegations have been tested in court and Scott is presumed innocent until proven guilty).The 35-year-old was promptly booted from Doug Ford's PC caucus and is now an Independent MPP (at least for the time being). Although the NDP is demanding his resignation, Scott has yet to answer questions about the criminal case or his future as a politician.Should he step down? Can fellow MPPs force him to resign? And what do we know about Chris Scott, a one-time senior Ford staffer handpicked by the Premier to run in February's provincial election?Joining us on tonight's Closer Look are two Village Media journalists who covered the breaking story: Jessica Smith Cross, editor-in-chief at The Trillium, and Kenneth Armstrong, a reporter at SooToday.You can watch the full episode in the above YouTube video. Earlier this year, Scott sat down with SooToday for a one-on-one interview during the provincial election race.Hosted by Village Media's Michael Friscolanti and Scott Sexsmith, and produced by Derek Turner, 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.

Send us a textA big battle is brewing between the Ford government and some independent grocery store owners over who should be responsible for collecting people's empty booze bottles.By Jan. 1, 2026, all grocery stores licensed to sell beer and wine in Ontario must accept bottle returns as part of Premier Doug Ford's vision of speeding up the availability of alcohol.But a growing number of independent grocers are deciding to ditch booze sales altogether rather than deal with the mess and hassle of accepting people's empties. They say they don't have the space or resources to accept large amounts of empty bottles, and that the unsanitary containers don't belong anywhere near food items people buy.Joining us to talk about the issue on tonight's Closer Look podcast is Gary Sands, vice-president of government relations at the Canadian Federation of Independent Grocers.Bottles aside, we also explore some other pressing topics, including U.S. tariffs, inter-provincial trade, and what you really need to know in order to “Buy Canadian.”Hosted by Village Media's Michael Friscolanti and Scott Sexsmith, and produced by Derek Turner, 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.

Bonnie Crombie resigned as leader of the Ontario Liberal Party after a disappointing leadership review. Steve Paikin and John Michael McGrath discuss how her vote collapsed, how she left the party in better shape, and who comes next. Ontario NDP leader Marit Stiles is set to undergo her own leadership review. The party is doing objectively worse than the Ontario Liberals, so Steve and John Michael dissect her chances - and how this event could be a soft launch for the federal party. Doug Ford applauded the City of Vaughn for shutting down its speed camera program, a move that critics say will endanger pedestrians. Steve and JMM discuss why the premier has such a disdain for these devices, which, according to experts, have a lot of upside.

This week on rabble radio, we continue our ongoing discussion on the state of public education in Ontario. Over the past few weeks, we've heard from various education union leaders about the growing pressures facing students and workers alike—pressures made worse by Ontario Premier Doug Ford's education agenda.  One major concern raised again and again: Bill 33. Tabled in May and still making its way through the legislature, the so-called Supporting Children and Students Act would give the Minister of Education sweeping new powers to supervise school boards and mandate police presence in schools.  Today, rabble editor Nick Seebruch sits down with David Mastin, president of the Elementary Teachers' Federation of Ontario (ETFO) to talk about why smaller class sizes are critical to student success and why having police in classrooms is not the answer.  About our guest  David Mastin was elected ETFO president in 2025, after representing ETFO members since 2002. He was elected to the provincial executive in 2013, as vice-president in 2019, and first vice-president in 2021. With public education, equity, and workers' rights under threat, he knows our greatest strength lies in unity, action, and hope.

After 16 speed cameras were vandalized in one night in Toronto, Ontario's premier says it's time to get rid of the "tax grab" devices. But Globe and Mail columnist Marcus Gee says they're more needed than ever, as drivers seem to become more reckless.

As Parliament prepares to resume, a Radio-Canada report says pipelines are nowhere on the Carney cabinet's agenda. That puts Ottawa at odds with Alberta and Saskatchewan, where Premiers Danielle Smith and Scott Moe have been clear: if the federal government wants energy projects to move forward, it must repeal or rewrite C-69, lift the West Coast tanker ban, and scrap the emissions cap. Guest host Kris Sims is joined by Toronto Sun columnist Brian Lilley to break down the politics and the math. Lilley explains why companies won't propose major projects under today's rules — pointing to regulatory uncertainty and past cancellations like Northern Gateway and Energy East — and warns shelving pipelines now would inflame Western alienation and damage national unity. They also dig into the economics: stalled investment, lost revenue, and Canada's widening GDP-per-capita gap with the U.S. Lilley argues predictable rules — not pauses and reviews — are what industry needs across oil and gas, autos, steel and telecom. Finally, the show tackles youth unemployment and immigration policy. After Doug Ford suggested young people should “look harder” for work, Lilley notes Ontario's youth jobless rate is elevated and entry-level markets are squeezed by the temporary foreign worker stream, expanded work rights for international students, and rapid inflows of work-eligible newcomers.
