Shownotes Transcript
Libby Znaimer is joined by Paula Fletcher, Toronto City Councillor for Toronto-Danforth, David Crombie, former Mayor of Toronto, and Karen Stintz, CEO of Variety Village and a former Toronto City Councillor and former mayoral candidate.
The mayoral race keeps growing. There are now at least 68 candidates vying for the City's top job. Will we reach 70 by week's end? And, what about the closure of a section of Queen Street in the downtown core as construction for the Ontario Line commences there? Do we really expect that it will only last four years? And what about the impact it will no doubt have on pedestrian, car and transit traffic? There are clearly many questions left unanswered about the challenges our City currently faces.
MILLINER DAVID DUNKLEY ON HATS AT THE CORONATION
Libby Znaimer is now joined by David Dunkley, a Toronto-based milliner who specializes in making couture hats.
David is in London as part of the Coronation festivities for King Charles III. The master milliner will be on demand selling his very own hats to those celebrating this milestone in the royal family history. He will be assisting those at Canada House as well. He joins Libby to weigh in on the celebrations, his favourite colours and styles of hat and the kinds of designs he has included in his catalogue.
A CODE OF CONDUCT TO HOLD GROCERS ACCOUNTABLE
Libby Znaimer is now joined by Michael Graydon, CEO of supplier industry group Food, Health & Consumer Products of Canada and co-chair of the steering committee, overseeing the code.
An official code of conduct to hold grocers accountable has reached a final draft. It includes a process to resolve disputes and impose sanctions on continuous violators. However, it stops short of actually imposing fines on bad actors. So, what exactly does this code of conduct actually look like and will it be enough to keep the grocers in check?
