  • Ancaster arrest, Trump's travel ban and Amanda Todd.

    The US has laid charges and arrested an Ancaster man and three others indicted in the hack of Yahoo! Which exposed 500 million user accounts.

    Guest: David Hyde. Security Consultant, David Hyde & Associates.

    How will these arrests affect US-Canada and even Canada-Russian relations?

    Guest: Stephanie MacLellan, Research Associate at Centre of Governance Innovation (CIGI). Former Editor and Reporter for various news outlets (including the Hamilton Spectator).

    Federal judges have blocked the second Trump travel ban. A judge in Hawaii and one in Maryland have issued a temporary restraining order nationwide hours before it was to go into effect. The Hawaiian judge concluded that the new order failed to pass legal muster. Trump also admitted at a rally last night that this second order was a watered down version of the first.

    Guest: Michael Taube, Columnist, Stephen Harper’s former Speech Writer.

    The man accused of cyberbullying Canadian teen Amanda Todd has been sentenced to ten years and 8 months in a high profile but unrelated trial in the Neterlands. The sentence is in correlation to the abuse of 34 young girls and five men. He still faces five charges in the Todd case. Where does the case move forward from here?

    Guest: Carol Todd, Mother of Amanda Todd.
