On this week's Friday Round Table, Craig is joined by Y.O.U. Executive Director Steve Cordes, Indigenous activist Frances Moore and former Green Party candidate Carol Dyck.

They look at he ongoing council budget deliberations and how council spending will impact homelessness in the community, including ArkAid. Also, there's a new hub opening in the city - but why aren't there more?

Then, conversation shifts to federal politics including the promised GST cuts from the Trudeau government along with $250 being sent to Canadians who earned less than $150,000 in 2023.

And the scandal surrounding cabinet minister Randy Boissonnault - who appears to have lied about Indigenous heritage while a company he owns was bidding for government contracts.
