This week, co-hosts Steve Paikin and John Michael McGrath perked up at choice words from Premier Ford to teachers' unions undergoing their union negotiations. Ford also promised a new transit station for Hamilton. Finally, for our second week of Civics Month, our cohosts sit down with people from outside the province's big cities about how Ontario and municipalities are responding to the mental health and addictions issue - and what platform promises to look out for.
