The NDP have revealed that Doug Ford has a secret plan to change everything in healthcare. Former Deputy Minister (Dr.) Bob Bell joins Chris, Alvin, Alexi and Sam to talk about the impact that the proposed "super agency" will have on patient care, and the politics and ethics of the leaked government plans. 

In the first of a series on the history and future of Ontario's three political parties, Alvin, Alexi and Chris sit down with Kate Graham to talk all things Liberal.
