Greg Brady and the panel of:

Steve Paikin, Author and Broadcaster, host of The Paikin Podcast,

Chloe Brown, policy analyst and former Toronto mayoral candidate,

Discuss:

1 - Carney says trade talks with U.S. ‘had been making progress’ until Ontario anti-tariff ad: Everyone one blaming Ford for this, but if Carney saw it before it aired shouldn’t he have said not to, or did he know it would torpedo talks and he let it happen because they weren’t close to a deal and he buys more time?

2 - Ontario to scrap fixed election dates, raise donation limit to $5,000 under new bill. We don’t really have fixed election dates anyway - useless legislation, isn’t it? Both incumbent parties in Canada/Ontario couldn’t wait to get a new mandate almost exclusively based on Trump and tariffs.

3 - Alberta sends teachers back to work Wednesday, it seems. Can’t think of more “essential services” than a kid’s education - but it’s always a clash between a centrist/right provincial government and teacher unions now - is education just too political?

4 - Canada Could Get MLB Expansion Team, Manfred Says - better place - VANCOUVER or MONTREAL?
