The Hamilton Today Podcast with Scott Thompson...

Scott has some safety questions about Trick or Treating in the age of COVID-19 and he has some answers for all of you! COP26 is shaping up to be a wild event as environmentalist protestors line up in the streets of Glasgow and the goalposts for the summit are continuously pulled back. The flags remain at half-mast so what does that mean for Remembrance Day?  And what do Indigenous groups want to see from the Pope’s Reconciliation visit. Mark Zuckerberg is planning his own “Metaverse” as the future for Facebook and its new parent company “Meta.” Now what does that mean? Scott brings these questions with a tech expert. And of course Scott Radley hops on to talk the headlines with Scott!

The Hamilton Today Podcast with Scott Thompson...

What would be going through the mind of a pilot in a situation like yesterday’s emergency landing on the 407? As we get closer to Halloween, a time often associated with black cats, the Burlington SPCA wants to draw attention to the kittens and cats waiting for a home, who are often looked over due to people’s bias and superstition. The Bank of Canada says it's keeping its trend-setting interest rate on hold for now, but borrowing costs for many Canadians are likely headed up. What does this mean for Canadians? Is Erin O’Toole once again giving the Conservative party’s opposition control of the narrative?
