On today’s edition of The Morning Show Podcast, we examined the rise of political violence in the U.S. after the assassination of Charlie Kirk and the growing threats facing Canadian politicians. We spoke with London Police Detective Sergeant Micah Bourdeau about the increase in shootings in London, bail reform, and illegal guns coming across the border. Our Thursday panel with Ryan Gauss and John Fyfe-Millar dove into those issues, as well as Premier Doug Ford’s push to eliminate photo radar. We also looked at local news, including Webster St. tenants winning a renoviction court case, Fanshawe College support staff going on strike, and St. Joseph’s Health Care adopting out dogs used in medical research. Finally, we turned to artificial intelligence, with Nobel laureate Geoffrey Hinton warning of mass unemployment as AI spreads — and we focused on its impact in the music world.
