TUNE INTO THE TOWN: OTTAWA JUST HIRED A NIGHTLIFE MAYOR

Tasha Kheiriddin is filling in for Libby Znaimer today. She is joined by Alex Blumenstein, co-founder of The Peak, Karen Stintz, CEO of Variety Village, and Toronto Councillor Stephen Holyday, Ward 2 Etobicoke Centre.

Ottawa just hired its first ever nightlife commissioner as part of its strategy to wake the city up from its reputation as a sleepy town. And, some Toronto residents are complaining about the Ontario Line construction. When will that all be over?




OTTAWA AND THE ONGOING CONCERNS AROUND FOREIGN INTERFERENCE

Tasha is now joined by Stephanie Carvin, Assistant Professor of International Affairs at Carleton University and an expert on national security issues.

BEER STORES AND LOTTERY TICKETS

Tasha is now joined by Kenny Shim, President of the Ontario Convenience Stores Association, and Mike Schreiner, Ontario Green Party leader.

The Beer Store is going to be permitted by the province to sell lottery tickets down the line when convenience stores can start selling alcohol. But not everyone is happy about it...
