from Fight Back with Libby Znaimer · host Zoomer Podcast Network

TUNE INTO THE TOWN: TTC CEO CALLS ON TPS CHIEF TO HELP GET RID OF ANTISEMITIC GRAFFITI  Libby Znaimer is joined by Toronto City Councillor James Pasternak of Ward 6 York Centre, Jon Burnside, City Councillor for Ward 16 (Don Valley East) and Alex Blumenstein, Co-Founder of The Peak. The TTC's CEO writes a letter to the Toronto Police Chief expressing concern around the issue of antisemitic graffiti on the transit system's property, a new report details how the City is falling behind its timeline targets for repairing potholes, and according to a Listening to Toronto survey, most Torontonians feel as though the city is not moving in the right direction. IMPACT OF CANADA POST STRIKE ON SMALL BUSINESS AND CONSUMERS Libby Znaimer is joined by Bruce Winder, a Retail Analyst and Daniel Tisch, President and CEO of the Ontario Chamber of Commerce. The Canada Post strike continues, and talks between the union (CUPW) and Canada Post have stalled. We get a sense of how this is all impacting small businesses and consumers. And, we continue the conversation around PM Trudeau's temporary GST tax relief plan. CAA STUDY ON CANNABIS IMPAIRMENT AMONG ROAD USERS + THEIR WINTER READINESS CAMPAIGN Libby Znaimer is joined by Michael Stewart, Community Relations Consultant for CAA South Central Ontario and Constable Brad Verspeeten of Toronto Police Traffic Services. Two things to talk about: first there's a new study from the CAA regarding cannabis impairment among drivers in Ontario. Meanwhile, the TPS, OPP and CAA are running a joint campaign to discuss winter readiness tips for drivers to stay safe as the weather changes.
