TUNE INTO THE TOWN: FORMER POLITICIANS OPPOSED TO THE TORONTO BUDGET
Tasha Kheiriddin is joined by Alex Blumenstein, Co-Founder of The Peak, Karen Stintz, CEO of Variety Village, who plans to run for the Conservatives in the next federal election, and Councillor Brad Bradford, Ward 19 Beaches-East York.
It was a ban that had many Torontonians upset: how could you not allow residents to toboggan on hills across city parks? Well, it appears that City Hall has since had a change of heart and city councillors voted in favour of a reversal  (21-3 in favour) at 45 different parks where the ban was imposed. What does our panel think about all of this? Meanwhile, a number of former local politicians are voicing their opposition to Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow's budget plans including the 9.5 percent property tax hike which they say is too much considering the affordability crisis.

So, where do we go from here and do you have any questions about your eligibility and how the program works? Call in!

Tasha is now joined by Dr. Enid Stiles, a Montreal-based veterinarian and a former President of the Canadian Veterinary Medical Association, and Linda Jacobson, Senior Manager, Shelter Medicine Advancement at Toronto Humane Society.
Are you finding your bills for your cat or dog to be just too darn expensive these days? Well, you are not alone and there are a number of contributing factors making it that way. Do you have a pet? Do you feel the pinch of ownership on your wallet?
