The TDSB is facing plenty of backlash after students were taken on a field trip that brought them into an anti-Israel protest. The initial idea of the trip was to observe a demonstration calling for the government to address the problem of mercury poisoning within the Grassy Narrows First Nation. The TDSB board has since apologized, but is that really enough? HOW MUCH ARE HOSPITALS AND NURSING HOMES PAYING FOR PRIVATE NURSES? Libby Znaimer is now joined by Dr. Doris Grinspun, Chief Executive Officer of the Registered Nurses' Association of Ontario (RNAO), and Dr. Valerie Grdisa, Chief Executive Officer of the Canadian Nurses Association.

Justin Trudeau's security advisor is playing down the federal government concealing documents relating directly to foreign interference in Canada from the head of the inquiry Justice Marie-Josee Hogue which Justice Hogue has requested. Position of the Trudeau government is it has chosen to provide the cabinet confidences it considers "most relevant" to the inquiry. This after Trudeau refused to answer reporters (including Global News) question about whether any Liberal MPs were named in the NSICOP report as witting or semi-witting partners of foreign governments. As well, the RCMP Commissioner on CBC said he hopes MPs don't name any politicians accused of aiding foreign powers. Many if not most Canadians want to know exactly that information.

Today's podcast: Have the federal Liberals and their NDP partners, by introducing and passing the Orwellian legislation Bill C-59, which will silence the energy industry on the truth about emissions control initiatives and cost Canada $-billions. The industry will have to prove to the satisfaction of federal environment minister Steven Guilbeault, any facts on emission reductions. Fedgov states it wants to eliminate so-called "greenwashing" of emissions reporting. Now the Pathway Alliance, a consortium of Canada's six largest oil sands companies which have committed to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions from oil sands production by 2050, has basically closed down its website out of concern of the anti-greenwashing component of C-59. Failure to satisfy the fedgov's definition of the truth would result in fines of up to $15-million. and: The election of former Calgary Mayor Naheed Nenshi as Alberta NDP leader.
