from The Big Five Podcast · host CJAD 800

Elias Makos is joined by Akil Alleyne, Reporter and commentator with extensive experience analysing legal, political, and social issues and Manager of the GemStar Circle of Excellence Scholarship Program, and Justine McIntyre, Strategic consultant and former city councillor. A new secularism bill will be tabled on Thursday at the National Assembly. Maybe Mark Carney cares afterall. Less than 48 hours after Prime Minister Mark Carney dismissed a question about when he had last spoken with U.S. President Donald Trump with a flippant “Who cares?”, a federal government source has confirmed to CTV News that he is considering a trip to Washington next week. La Presse has announced that it has filed a lawsuit against OpenAI.  Elon Musk says that work will become optional, and that this version of the future could be just 10-20 years away.
