The Morning Show Podcast - Feb 23rd - brought to you by 980 CFPL

In today’s edition of The Morning Show Podcast, we begin with Canadians sheltering in place after Mexican forces killed cartel leader “El Mencho,” triggering violence that shut down Puerto Vallarta’s airport and cancelled Canadian flights. We then speak with Mayor Josh Morgan about Canada’s Olympic performance, CUSMA negotiations, the U.S. Supreme Court ruling on Trump’s tariffs, assessment growth funding and civility at city hall. Corrine Pohlman from the CFIB weighs in on new U.S. global tariffs and the threat of a 15 per cent levy. We also cover a community-led town hall in Old North on neighbourhood safety, debate whether cities should aggressively collect unpaid fines after a 1987 parking ticket resurfaces, examine Canada’s eighth-place Olympic finish and what it says about our sports system, and close with commentary calling for reform at Hockey Canada to reduce barriers for young players.
