This Law Probably Won't Stop Auto-Theft

Hamilton Today with Scott Thompson

The Hamilton Today Podcast with Scott Thompson:

Niagara Emergency Medical Services says their 9-1-1 dispatch service in Ontario's Niagara Region that includes nurses as part of the team responding to emergency calls has resulted in fewer ambulances rushing to scenes. Calgary-based entertainer Shelley Goldbeck commemorated the moment Pierre Poilievre was ejected from The House with a new song. Canada is preparing for another Trump government and what that might mean for international trade, so that we’re not caught off guard like last time. Port Colborne, Ontario, will be home to a new Lithium-Ion Battery Separator plant. Defence Minister Bill Blair says that he is pushing for more military spending to meet Canada’s NATO commitments, but he still needs to do more work on the “business case” to secure the extra funding. Correctional Service Canada documents show that Luca Magnota’s 2022 transfer was meant to not gain much attention. Canada has an ongoing money laundering problem, and now TD Bank is facing scrutiny for its involvement in at least two investigations by the U.S. Department of Justice. Will the Ford government’s plan to strip auto thieves of their licenses pan out, or could it be unconstitutional?
