As Toronto gets ready to vote, we are bringing you regular panel discussions with journalists and experts who will break down the candidates, platforms, and issues that will shape our city for the next four years. In this episode, it's a classic transit panel with Matt Elliott (Toronto Star columnist and City Hall Watcher proprietor) and Tricia Wood (York University urban geography professor and Spacing urban affairs columnist). We talk about lessons we did (and didn't) learn from the pandemic, the need to restore TTC service levels and ridership, and we walk you some of the campaign promises made so far.

It's been too long since we had a classic Toronto transit episode. And, with the City and province grappling with the pandemic, and the threat of a second wave, there's a lot to discuss. We talk with Tricia Wood, professor of geography at York University and Spacing columnist, and Matt Elliott Toronto Star city columnist and author of the City Hall Watcher newsletter. How has COVID affected the TTC, and what happens to the Doug Ford Ontario governments priority transit projects in Toronto? We get into it.
It's been a while since we delved into the always amusing world of Toronto transit. There have been major proposals from the province, major decisions made at council, and the TTC are going into arbitration with Metrolinx. With so much to unpack, we assembled an expert panel to take us through the major transit news: columnist Matt Elliott, Toronto Star transit reporter Ben Spurr, and York University geography professor and Spacing urban affairs columnist Tricia Wood. Believe it or not, it was a lot of fun!
This month we look at how major swings in provincial politics are affecting cities across Canada.

And McGill law dean Robert Leckey tells us about the push back from Montreal and the surrounding suburbs against the proposed Bill 21 secularism laws.

As Toronto gets ready to vote, we’ll be bringing you regular panel discussions with journalists and experts who will help you wade through what is maybe the most confusing race in the city’s history.

The backlash in Quebec to Andrew Potter’s infamous Maclean’s column has generated a backlash of its own in English Canada. The pearl-clutching has come primarily from Canada's journalist class, who spent the week loudly accusing Quebecers of being overly sensitive to criticism. Of course, things look a lot different from inside the province. In his recent article at Ricochet, Trevor Hanna writes that the Potter controversy emphasizes a long-running friction in the relationship between the Two Solitudes and highlights Quebecers’ sensitivity to cultural condescension. In this conversation we take on the English Canadian media’s insularity problem, share a smart Twitter Essay from Tricia Wood of torontoist.com and push back against the Canadaland podcast’s very bad take on l’Affair Potter.
