If you’re feeling stir-crazy these days, you’re not alone — Elamin and Rosie are both feeling way overdue for some haircuts. But as provinces all across the country take steps to lift lockdown measures, or in some cases simply allow for more indoor activities, the two can’t help but wonder: is now the time to do it?

The two also check in on the Red Chamber, as Senator Mike Duffy is making another attempt to launch a multi-million-dollar lawsuit against the Senate itself. The Supreme Court is set to decide Thursday whether it will hear his case, after being dismissed in lower courts twice before. Rosie and Elamin unpack all you need to know as the senator nears mandatory retirement.
