The Hamilton Today Podcast with Scott Radley: Are you a fan of wine? It is the preferred drink of many a Canadian, and wine connoisseurs may have to cut back on their favourite Niagara-grown-grape-drink; Niagara region vineyards are seeing some of the worst winter damage in 17 years: early estimates say around 50 per cent of grape vines are damaged. Despite warmer weather bringing benefits to vineyards, the unpredictability of winter has become problematic. Debbie Inglis, Brock University's director of Cool Climate Oenology joins Scott for more on that. The City of Hamilton hit a new milestone for 2022: surpassing $1 billion worth of construction costs by June. 2022 now marks the earliest the City has reached the billion-dollar mark in construction value. This milestone represents 3761 building projects in the residential, institutional, commercial, and industrial sectors. Hamilton's director of Economic Development, Norm Schleehan, speaks to this development. Is Canada in a recession? Polling says that many Canadians think the economy is already there, but Marvin Ryder of the Degroote School of Business has some words to the contrary for Scott. It is all coming up on the Hamilton Today Podcast. Guests: Debbie Inglis, Director of Brock's Cool Climate Oenology and Viticulture Institute (CCOVI), and Professor of Biological Sciences. Norm Schleehan, Director, Economic Development, City of Hamilton. Jim Diodati, Mayor of Niagara Falls. Marvin Ryder, Professor with the DeGroote School of Business at McMaster University. Claudio Ruiz-Pilarte, Executive Director of Hamilton's Immigrants Working Centre. Dr. Sonu Gaind, Psychiatrist, mental health advocate, University of Toronto Professor & Governor, Honorary Member World Psych Association.

In this episode of the Decision Corner, Brooke speaks with Dilip Soman, Canada Research Chair in Behavioural Science & Economics, University of Toronto Professor and Director of the Behavioural Economics in Action Research (BEAR) Centre at Rotman School of Management. Together they explore the translation of behavioral science theory into practice, common intervention pitfalls, and the types of strategies organizations and individuals can implement to make their interventions more robust and ultimately, more successful. Some of the topics discussed include: - Why ‘shopping at the nudge store' doesn't always lead to the best outcomes, and how practitioners should consider the unique ‘seemingly irrelevant factors' that exist in their particular context. - The ladder of evidence - adopting a variety of approaches to intervention testing, that isn't just another randomized controlled trial. - Moving beyond statistical averages and considering the larger picture. - Why a house listed for $1 will likely get a much higher sale price than the predetermined asking price. - Organizational and psychological barriers to intervention testing and experimentation. - How individuals can catalyse change in their organizations, and overcome some of the human biases that impede on the ‘discipline of testing'.

On this special mid-week episode of the Construction Record podcast, Daily Commercial News staff writer Don Wall shares an interview he recently conducted with Tamer El-Diraby, a University of Toronto civil engineering professor who led a research project on how the construction industry is dealing with the coronavirus pandemic. Despite some successes like developing new supply chains and strong advocacy that kept the sector working while much of the rest of the society slowed down or shut down completely, El-Diraby said the construction sector didn't fare well due to a general lack of preparedness and a fragmented set of strategies to deal with COVID. The study is called “Best Practices for Industry-wide Collective Action to Manage Pandemics in the Ontario Construction Sector” and the research is supported by the Residential and Civil Construction Alliance of Ontario and the Residential Construction Council of Ontario and is made up of three phases. The first phase is a survey, with interviews followed by workshops to discuss findings and develop solutions. El-Diraby goes into detail in the interview about the challenges the industry has faced already and will face going forward, including a shift in focus from the immediate problems of health and safety protocols that allow projects to continue  to the broader survival of the sector and preparedness for the next pandemic or other crises.

University of Toronto Professor and Schwartz Reisman Chair in Technology and Society (and recent co-recipient of the David Mundell Medal for Legal Writing) Gillian Hadfield speaks with Julie about the myriad challenges facing the legal profession. Their conversation touches on finding a sustainable economic solution to the affordability crisis in law, access to justice, and pressures for the expansion of legal service models and deregulation. How can the lawyers of tomorrow refocus on client needs and interests, rather than the protection of the profession? In other news: a Law Society of Ontario meeting last week made some important decisions, including a new strategic plan; the American Bar Association recently had a heated fight over a motion to open the door to new models for legal practice in the U.S.; and lastly, ICYMI, a recent article in The Star outlines the story of how NSRLP got started, its initiatives over the years, and our new #Justice4All funding campaign – we encourage you to read and share this article as widely as you can.

This is an addendum to a previously published broadcast recorded on May 19, 2017. I explored with University of Toronto Professor and Richard Florida some of his proposed solutions he outlines in his latest book "The New Urban Crisis." These include how to transform low wage service work into middle-class family-supporting work and how to update the tax code to make it less regressive and more fair. Dr. Florida also shared his blunt observations on how to empower local communities and address the divide in America between urban, rural and suburban communities.
