Today: We start off the discussion by remembering Gordon Pinsent, the iconic Canadian actor who died at the age of 92 this past weekend. We then discuss the new bilateral healthcare agreement between Ottawa and Ontario. The agreement includes a commitment to helping older Canadians age with dignity, with greater access to home care or safe care in a long term care facility. Speaking of health, a new Angus Reid Institute poll reveals that Canadians are divided when it comes to privatization.
