Libby Znaimer is joined by Bill VanGorder, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Policy Officer of CARP, Anthony Quinn, Chief Community Officer of CARP, and John Wright, Executive Vice President of Maru Public Opinion. We begin the discussion off by remembering the late Honourable David Onley who died yesterday at the age of 72. David served as the 28th Lieutenant Governor of Ontario between 2007 until 2014. He will, of course, be remembered as well for his tireless advocacy for those living with disabilities. And, then we get our reaction from the squad regarding the province's plans to expand the surgeries conducted in private clinics for things like cataract, knee and hip replacements as a way to address the current backlog in surgeries in the healthcare system. ---- PROVINCE TO EXPAND SURGERIES IN PRIVATE FACILITIES Libby Znaimer is joined by Dr. Doris Grinspun, CEO of the Registered Nurses Association of Ontario (RNAO) and Dr. Andrew Boozary, a primary care physician and the Executive Director of Population Health and Social Medicine at the University Health Network (UHN).

It's no secret that women in media are often subjected to criticism about their looks that their male counterparts rarely hear. It's 2023 and this needs to stop. My first guest today is an award-winning journalist with over two decades of experience in the industry and while we should be celebrating that part of the story, we're not. Sadly despite all of Tess van Straaten's hard work committed to her craft, she is often subjected to to comments about appearance that diminish and detract from her achievements, as she was recently when someone wrote a letter criticizing her sleeveless dress on air. She joins me to discuss her viral story. 2023 is the year we shift out of languishing and into post-traumatic growth. Candy Ho, Board Chair of Ceric, the only charitable organization of its kind in Canada, focused on career development education and research joins me today to discuss today to share insights on how to navigate the current workplace and workforce realities, in addition to resources available for those looking to build purposeful careers after nearly three years of disruption. Anne Brodie is here with entertainment and this week we take a look at LIVING, starring the absolutely wonderful Bill Nighy, in the story of an ordinary man, reduced by years of oppressive office routine to a shadow existence, who at the eleventh hour makes a supreme effort to turn his dull life into something wonderful. Plus Aftersun, from writer/director Charlotte Wells which dominated the Toronto Film Critics Association Awards this year. For years, nurses across the country have been sounding the alarm about the impact that staffing shortages are having on patient care—yet those warning calls have continually gone unanswered. Ontario in particular is facing a full-blown healthcare crisis and nurses have reached a breaking point. To add insult to injury, Internal documents by the Ministry of Health were released this week through the freedom of information act that shows the Ontario government knew that passing Bill 124 would worsen the province's healthcare staffing crisis. Dianne Martin from WeRPN joins me to discuss. Finally, finances are a top concern for most Canadians right now so Stephanie Chabot from the Finance Diaries is here with some tips for riding out the storm. Stephanie believes that by being able to openly discuss finance topics: we can understand them better, avoid mistakes others have made, feel more empowered, and make better decisions.

The Bill Kelly Show Podcast w/ Guest Host Shiona Thompson: Canada will provide $970 million in financing to develop a grid-scale small modular reactor (SMR), a new nuclear technology touted as a key part of the country's plans to reduce emissions. The nuclear power project, which is being developed by utility Ontario Power Generation (OPG) in Darlington, will be the first commercial grid-scale SMR in the Group of Seven wealthy nations (G7), according to the minister's spokesperson.

GUEST: Moshe Lander, Senior Economics Lecturer with Concordia University - Ontario Premier Doug Ford is legally challenging a request that he testify under oath before the Emergencies Act Inquiry — saying it would be “inconsistent” with parliamentary privilege to force him and his minister Sylvia Jones to appear.

Today: we begin with reaction to the joint health care announcement made by Ontario health minister Sylvia Jones and long-term care minister Paul Calandra which includes the plan to introduce legislation that will permit senior patients in hospitals awaiting long-term care residency to be moved to an alternative facility. And, the pledge to add an additional 6,000 healthcare workers to the province's healthcare system. Meanwhile, the registration deadline for Toronto's municipal election is tomorrow. Where are we at with that? Our panel reacts to the latest headlines. BLOGTO'S NEW FOOD EXPERT PREVIEWS THIS YEAR'S CNE FOODS Libby Znaimer is joined by BlogTO's new resident food expert, Renee Suen!

But, is this announcement too little too late? Our LTC and healthcare experts weigh in on the latest to come out of Queen's Park.

Today on Free For All Friday: plenty of nurses and retired nurses called in to weigh in on the staffing shortages that hospitals have been forced to grapple with this summer and that have led to the temporary closure of ER departments. Over the past week, Ontario's new health minister Sylvia Jones has been facing criticism for downplaying the shortage and refusing to call it a crisis. At the same time, nursing representatives like Cathryn Hoy and Doris Grinspun say the situation is desperate. Some nurses haven't taken vacations for years and nearly 1 in 4 working nurses in the province are eligible for retirement. Then there is Minister Jones' confusing comments about further privatization of Ontario's healthcare: first saying she is open to everything, then saying no it's actually innovation she's open to and not privatization while trying to reassure residents that OHIP will continue to cover healthcare services for Ontario residents. Listen live, weekdays from noon to 1, on Zoomer Radio!

The Bill Kelly Show Podcast: Ontario's health minister is not ruling out privatization as the government looks at ways to deal with a major staff shortage straining hospitals across the province. Sylvia Jones said the government is considering many ideas in an effort to keep emergency departments from closing. Should we be concerned? GUEST: Clement Nocos, Director of Policy with the Broadbent Institute - He was a man who wrote the music and performed at the concerts — the wild, manic wonderful concerts — that many people, especially Hamiltonians, milestoned their lives around (and still do). In short, Gord Lewis brought people energy and joy, joy with a rough exterior perhaps — I mean, we're talking punk icons Teenage Head here — but joy nonetheless. GUEST: Lou Molinaro, Instructor at the Harris Institute for Music - Social media users deliberately attempting to silence journalists and others with messages of hate has become a norm that is threatening democracy. Is it time for regulation? GUEST: Jeffrey Dvorkin, Senior Fellow at Massey College, and author of “Trusting the News in a Digital Age”? 

Libby Znaimer is joined by David Peterson, former Ontario Liberal Premier, Howard Hampton, former leader of the Ontario NDP and Hugh Segal who served as chief of staff to Ontario's 18th Premier, the late Bill Davis. Today: we start the discussion off with a recap of the new Ford government cabinet that saw, among other changes, Sylvia Jones take over as deputy premier and minister of health. Will Sylvia be able to fill the big shoes that her predecessor Christine Elliott left? And, we continue the discussion about government incompetence. There seems to be a lot of it these days. Some examples that come to mind include Global Affairs sending a senior rep to the Russian Embassy to celebrate Russia Day and federal transportation minister Omar Alghabra blaming travelers for problems at international airports like Pearson. Our panel weighs in on all of that and more. ---- HOW CANADA PERFORMED ON ITS PANDEMIC RESPONSE + FOURTH COVID-19 BOOSTERS

Libby Znaimer is joined by David Cravit, Vice President of Zoomer Media and Chief Membership Officer at CARP, Peter Muggeridge, Senior Editor of Zoomer Magazine and Bill VanGorder, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Policy Officer of CARP.

Our Zoomer Squad weighs in on that study. Meanwhile, the Ford government announced its new cabinet late last week. The most important positions of Deputy Premier and Health Minister went to Sylvia Jones who replaced Christine Elliot after her decision to retire. ---- TORONTO LAUNCHING TRAFFIC/PARKING BLITZ Libby Znaimer is joined by Constable Sean Shapiro of Toronto Police Traffic Safety Programs, Erin Urquhart, a parking enforcement officer and Brian Patterson, President and CEO of Ontario Safety League.

Alex is joined with Jason Lietaer, Conservative Strategist and President of Enterprise Canada to discuss Ron Taverner's decision to withdraw from consideration for OPP Commissioner. In a short letter sent Thursday afternoon to the Community Safety Minister, Sylvia Jones, Taverner said the decision to withdraw stemmed from the controversy surrounding his appointment and to protect the integrity of the rank. The 72-year-old Toronto police superintendent is a family friend of Premier Doug Ford, and his appointment set off accusations of political interference in the hiring process for the province's top policing job. Taverner, who had been in law enforcement for 51 years, said in the letter that he was grateful to have the confidence of the government and believed his experience and skills would have served the public in the best possible way.
