Greg Brady and the panel of:

Ben Mulroney, Host of the Ben Mulroney Show 9 to Noon on the Corus Radio Network

Ana Bailao, former Toronto city councillor, deputy mayor, housing expert

Discuss:

1.Ana - perfect person to ask about multiplex development, and the watered-down six-plex legislation the city passed 17-7…but the dreaded words “pilot project” - feels like we do this so often - and it, can, in essence, make for a “boss” or “king/queen” in each particular city Ward - is that fair?

To follow - there is noise, I can report, within the federal Liberal caucus about the word “blackmail” being used by Councillor Paula Fletcher about the requirement and regulations to get federal HAF $. Some advocates for housing are strongly suggesting the feds don’t give the remaining $ to the city given they’re not meeting prerequisites. What could happen here?

2.The socialist madness of Zohran Mamdani is a spreading contagion: Are there parallels to Toronto’s mayoral race? Could this happen here? Some of his ideas are out there and extreme but are they all bad?

3.Toronto to install larger, more visible signs to warn drivers of speed cameras: Mayor wants larger signs, directed funding, and a limit on the number of infractions you can rack up before you get your first speeding ticket in the mail but could the problem be that some posted limits be unrealistically low in some areas?
