    ZOOMER SQUAD: HOW OLIVIA CHOW WOULD DO VS JOHN TORY IN THE NEXT MAYORAL RACE Liz West is filling in for Libby Znaimer today. She is joined by Anthony Quinn, President of CARP, Bob Richardson, a Public Affairs consultant and David Valentin, Principal at Liaison Strategies. If former mayor of Toronto John Tory were to enter the next mayoral race, could he hamper Mayor Olivia Chow's chances of a re-election? That's what David Valentin has tested in the latest Liaison Strategies polling. Meanwhile, it's been two years since Mayor Chow has entered office. Has she lived up to the expectations of residents? THE LATEST REGARDING CANADA'S DENTAL COVERAGE PLAN Liz West is joined by Dr. David Brown, President of the Ontario Dental Association. It's been a while since we checked in on the Canadian Dental Care Plan. We ask Dr. Brown about what's working and what is not with the program. HOW POOR AIR QUALITY AFFECTS THE MOST VULNERABLE Liz West is joined by Dave Phillips, Senior Climatologist at Environment Canada and Jason Thistlethwaite, Associate Professor at the University of Waterloo's School of Environment. Toronto is facing a nasty combination of really poor air quality (thanks to wildfires in Northern Ontario) and extreme heat. What are the impacts of it all on the most vulnerable populations including seniors and the immunocompromised?

    TUNE INTO THE TOWN: VANDALS KEEP GOING AFTER PARKSIDE DRIVE SPEED CAMERA Jane Brown is filling in for Libby Znaimer today. She is joined by Taylor Scollon, Co-Founder of The Peak, Jon Burnside, City Councillor for Ward 16 (Don Valley East) and Karen Stintz, a former Toronto City Councillor. Vandals continue their relentless pursuit of the Parkside Drive speed camera despite a surveillance camera being stationed there. And, it looks like residents opposed to proposed priority transit lanes on major stretches of both Bathurst and Dufferin Streets have secured a win (for now). Our panel gets into the latest municipal news of the week. THE CALL FOR MORE AIRLINE COMPETITION IN CANADA Jane Brown is joined by Dr. Gabor Lukacs, President of Air Passenger Rights and John Gradek, a faculty lecturer at McGill University in Montreal and a former executive with Air Canada. The Competition Bureau wants to see greater airline competition in Canada. Meanwhile is Ottawa following in the footsteps of the U.S. to get rid of the shoes-off policy during the security screening process? U.S. PRESIDENT TRUMP IS FED UP WITH PUTIN: WILL THAT CHANGE ANYTHING? Jane Brown is joined by Dr. Maria Popova, Associate Professor of Political Science at McGill University and Andrew Rasiulis with The Canadian Global Affairs Institute. U.S. President Donald Trump seems to be getting increasingly agitated with Russian President Vladimir Putin over his ongoing war against Ukraine. In the latest public remarks he stated: "I'm not happy with Putin. I can tell you that much right now...we get a lot of bullshit thrown at us by Putin. He’s very nice all the time, but it turns out to be meaningless.” But will Trump's blunt remarks change anything? Our experts weigh in on the latest.
