Is Toronto City Hall Doing Enough to Fix the City's Problems?

Fight Back with Libby Znaimer

TUNE INTO THE TOWN: CITIZENS NEWS CONFERENCE AND COUNTER PROTEST, A SIGN OF A CITY DIVIDED? Jane Brown is filling in for Libby Znaimer today. She is joined by Jon Burnside, City Councillor for Ward 16 (Don Valley East), and former Toronto City Councillors Karen Stintz and Rob Davis. A coalition of concerned residents organized a news conference at Nathan Phillips Square in front of Toronto City Hall earlier this week to express their concerns with how the City is dealing with hot button issues like bike lanes, homeless encampments and more. They also faced a counter-protest. Meanwhile, Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow has described the City's Winter maintenance program as a "systemic failure" based on its performance last winter season. We get into all of the municipal news of the week. OTTAWA TARGETS STEEL IMPORTS AMID TRADE TENSIONS WITH THE U.S. Jane Brown is joined by Marty Warren, the Canadian National Director of the United Steelworkers union which represents 225,000 members in Canada.
