Meanwhile, the province of B.C. wants to limit the sale of the Ozempic drug to non-Canadians as demand for the Obesity drug grows.

MARK SAUNDERS IS RUNNING FOR MAYOR

Libby Znaimer is now joined by Mark Saunders, former Toronto Police Chief who is now officially running to be Mayor of Toronto.

Mark is joining a crowded pool of candidates running for the City's top political job. Will his high-profile as a former police chief help him stand out from the rest? He says that he wants to restore a sense of community safety to our city as it deals with an increase in violence on the TTC and in our streets. Will he also work well with the higher levels of government to get much needed cash for the budget?
