RECOVERING POLITICIANS: MARK CARNEY MAKES INTERNATIONAL TRIP AS PRIME MINISTER

Jane Brown is filling in for Libby Znaimer today. She is joined by George Smitherman, former Ontario Liberal Health Minister and Deputy Premier, Cheri DiNovo, former NDP MPP and John Mykytyshyn, Conservative Consultant and President of Bradgate Research Group.

Mark Carney hasn't even been Prime Minister for a week and he's already getting defensive with journalists who asked him questions about his assets and whether there are any potential conflicts of interest. And, we get reactions from our panel about his trip abroad to Europe and then to Iqaluit back home in Canada.

THE LATEST ON SANKOFA SQUARE 

Jane Brown is joined by Justin Holmes, a columnist with the Toronto Sun.

We shift our attention to Toronto City Hall and the ongoing conversation after the renaming of Yonge Dundas Square to Sankofa Square.

IT'S TIME TO REVISIT THE DEBATE OVER TORONTO BIKE LANES 

Jane Brown is joined by Albert Koehl, a cycling and pedestrian advocate followed by Sam Pappas, Owner of The Crooked Cue and a board member of Balance on Bloor.

We discuss the latest on Premier Doug Ford's plans to remove bike lanes on Yonge, University and Bloor and other bike lane news in the City.
