  • Is Ontario Making Education Less Affordable?
    Mar 6 2026
    The Ford government is ending Ontario's tuition freeze, which has been in place since 2019. Colleges and universities will be allowed to raise fees by up to two per cent a year, for the next three years. The Ontario Student Assistance Program - better known as OSAP - is changing too. What was once mostly grants will now be mostly loans. The province says the current system isn't sustainable. But will higher tuition actually help colleges and universities facing a funding crunch? And can students afford to take on even more debt? We break down what these changes could mean for the future of higher education in Ontario.

  • Can Transit Finally Reduce Car Dependence in Toronto?
    Mar 4 2026
    Toronto's long-awaited Eglinton Crosstown (Line 5) is finally open-joining the newly launched Finch West LRT after years of delays and billions over budget. In this episode of The Rundown, we examine what these new transit lines mean for getting around the city, whether they'll reduce car use, and what planners must learn to avoid repeating past mistakes. Andy Takagi, transportation reporter at the Toronto Star, breaks down the impact of Toronto's newest LRT projects. We also explore the hidden costs of car-centric cities with Sarah Goodyear and Doug Gordon, co-authors of "Life After Cars: Freeing Ourselves from the Tyranny of the Automobile" and hosts of The War on Cars podcast.
