On this episode of The Alex Pierson Podcast, our host Alex Pierson first talks about something many people who live in the GTA will want to hear... the province is stepping in and helping the city accelerate the major repairs needed on the Gardiner. Provincial Transportation Minister Prabmeet Sarkaria joined Alex to talk about why the province got involved, how they plan to keep contractors on the promised timeline and how much time this could save Ontarians.

Next, Alex speaks with the President and CEO of SecondStreet Colin Craig about his new documentary "Health Reform Now"! Colin and Alex talk about why this free documentary was made, what state our healthcare system is in and what we can change ASAP to help all Canadians live better lives.

And finally, Canadians were given a small glimmer of hope...The Bank of Canada has once again lowered interest rates! But is that enough for people to feel relief? So Alex had Mark Borkowski, the co-founder and president of Mercantile Mergers & Acquisitions about what this could mean for the stock and real estate markets...and for Canadians bank accounts.
