Plus, comedian Dino Archie and pollster Mario Canseco hit the Low Road to discuss Canada’s apparent gambling boom. From sports betting apps to bizarre wagers on platforms like Polymarket, how do Canadians really feel about gambling? Finally, veteran broadcaster Lynda Steele (Change My Mind podcast) explores whether we watch the news to get informed… or simply to feel validated.
