Hamilton Today with Scott Thompson

The Hamilton Today Podcast with Scott Thompson:

Go Dogs, go! The City of Hamilton, Mayor Fred Eisenberger and the Downtown BIA invite residents to attend a ceremony at Gore Park on Thursday, June 30, 2022, to welcome the Hamilton Bulldogs back from Wednesday night’s Memorial Cup final! Hamilton Mayor Fred Eisenberger shares the details with Scott off the top. Despite years of Tory orthodoxy that they could only win government with a centrist, polls show a Canada that seems to be warming to a Conservative Party led by hardliner Pierre Poilievre. To dive into this burgeoning conservatism in Canada, Scott speaks with Michael Taube, former speechwriter for Stephen Harper. Bank of Nova Scotia, Telus Corp., and Canadian Tire Corp. paused or ended sponsorship deals with Hockey Canada in response to the governing body’s handling of sexual assault allegations involving a group of teenage players and a lone woman in 2018. Marvin Ryder, of the Degroote School of Business, joins Scott to break this down. It is all coming up on the Hamilton Today Podcast.
