This week, the provincial government announced sweeping changes to modernize Ontario’s 60 billion dollar health care system. It’s creating a new super-agency by consolidating local and provincial health networks like Cancer Care Ontario, to create a central agency. Libby speaks with Christine Elliott, Minister of Health for Ontario, on what the changes mean for Zoomers.
And – As the federal government prepares to pardon Canadians for simple pot possession….Chris James, the owner of a former Toronto pot dispensary, is suing the province for damages, after the Ford Tories capped the number of retail pot licenses at just 25. Chris James joins Libby to talk about it.
