Senator Leo Housakos joined Toronto Today with Greg Brady to discuss the protest turned riot in Montreal this past weekend. Senator Housakos explained how he opposed the scenes in Montreal and said it was something he never dreamed of ever seeing here in Canada. He laid blame at the doorstep of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and believes the core issues behind these protests start at the top with the PM. Senator Housakos also stated that police have their hands tied in managing the protests and says that many politicians don't have their back in supporting how to manage the protests. He also pointed out the differences in response to the protest compared to the trucker "freedom convoy" in Ottawa in 2022 vs the pro-Palestine protests in Montreal this weekend.

Greg Brady (@GregBradyTO) reacts to the Ford government introducing strict new rules for safe injection sites, including banning them within 200 metres of schools and child-care centres — a move that will force several existing sites to shut down permanently. We all see this issue differently – OF COURSE we don't want to see people struggle with addiction, of course we don't want people consuming tainted drugs.. but are safe sites the answer? Or is treatment and rehabilitation? We get your calls on Toronto Today. Next, Ontario's Labour Minister David Piccini.. The Minister had a confrontation with embattled CUPE President Fred Hahn.
