Fight Back with Libby Znaimer

If you’re planning on going to the US this long weekend, listen up. And, make sure there is nothing in your bag to provoke US customs.

We all know you can’t take marijuana into the US even though it is legal here and in a number of American states. But CBD oil? Who knew? CBD, of course, is the non psycho-active ingredient in marijuana - it won’t make you high. But it may help relieve your pain or help you sleep.

A BC woman is just one of those facing a lifetime ban for trying to cross the border with a bottle of CBD oil. And there are all kinds of issues that could bring the same outcome.

Libby and guests discuss the ever controversial King Street Transit Corridor. Many drivers don't seem to be getting the message that you can only drive for one block at a time between Bathurst and Jarvis before being forced to turn right.

Since the beginning of the project in November 2017 and this past July, Toronto Police have issued 16,000 tickets to drivers for violating this traffic law. Residents from the neighbourhood say drivers break the law constantly and there usually aren't cops around to catch them.

Police say the culprits are often people from out of town. Are we just preying on hapless tourists and giving them a nasty souvenir?

There is hope that a landmark American settlement in a massive lawsuit is good news for Canadian victims of the opioid crisis.

Yesterday An Oklahoma Judge ordered Johnson and Johnson to pay $572 million (U.S) for mounting a misleading marketing campaign overplaying the effectiveness of its opioids for chronic pain and downplaying the risk of addiction.

What does that mean for us here in Canada? Libby and guests discuss.
