    Jul 17 2025
    TUNE INTO THE TOWN: CITIZENS NEWS CONFERENCE AND COUNTER PROTEST, A SIGN OF A CITY DIVIDED? Jane Brown is filling in for Libby Znaimer today. She is joined by Jon Burnside, City Councillor for Ward 16 (Don Valley East), and former Toronto City Councillors Karen Stintz and Rob Davis. A coalition of concerned residents organized a news conference at Nathan Phillips Square in front of Toronto City Hall earlier this week to express their concerns with how the City is dealing with hot button issues like bike lanes, homeless encampments and more. They also faced a counter-protest. Meanwhile, Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow has described the City's Winter maintenance program as a "systemic failure" based on its performance last winter season. We get into all of the municipal news of the week. OTTAWA TARGETS STEEL IMPORTS AMID TRADE TENSIONS WITH THE U.S. Jane Brown is joined by Marty Warren, the Canadian National Director of the United Steelworkers union which represents 225,000 members in Canada. Prime Minister Mark Carney has taken steps to assist Canada's local steel industry amid trade tensions with the U.S. But does the response go far enough? Marty weighs in. REMEMBERING THE LEGENDARY CONNIE FRANCIS Jane Brown is joined by Robbie Lane, host of the popular program Robbie Remembers on Zoomer Radio.

    Jul 16 2025
    THE MEDICAL RECORD: LET'S TALK ABOUT OZEMPIC Jane Brown is filling in for Libby Znaimer today. She is joined by Dr. Malcolm Moore, Medical Oncologist, Princess Margaret Cancer Centre and former head of BC Cancer, Dr. Fahad Razak, general internist at St. Michael's Hospital and Canada Research Chair in Healthcare Data and Analytics at the University of Toronto and Dr. Alisa Naiman, a family doctor practicing in Toronto. We revisit the conversation about Ozempic and when it is typically prescribed & are Canadians wearing enough sunscreen amid a spike in Melanoma cases? Our panel of doctors react to the latest. A ONE-ON-ONE WITH THE TTC'S NEW CEO MANDEEP LALI Jane Brown is joined by Mandeep Lali, the TTC's new CEO. Yes, that's right: the TTC has a new CEO. Before this, he served as an exec with NYC's transit system. But does Mandeep Lali have what it takes to effectively resolve issues at the TTC including persistent delays and more? And will he get this moving faster when it comes to the still unfinished Eglinton Crosstown LRT? He answers the tough questions on Fight Back. A COALITION OF RESIDENTS IS DEMANDING BETTER FROM CITY HALL Jane Brown is joined by Anthony Furey, a former Toronto mayoral candidate and longtime Postmedia columnist who spoke at the Toronto Concerned Citizens Coalition News Conference this past Tuesday. The conference took place this past Tuesday at Nathan Phillips Square whereby residents joined together to express their dissatisfaction with the way that Toronto City Hall has been approaching key issues like homeless encampments, property tax increases, a rise in hate-related crimes, the renaming of spaces and bike lanes. Is the message getting through to City councillors and the mayor?
