A major fire has broken out at an industrial building in Burlington. Emergency crews were called to the location at 4:10pm and flames could be seen on the east side of the building. What information do we have now, who is affected?

Guest: Rick Golding, Mayor for Burlington.

Some of the donors have been unveiled that are behind the $300K HAMILTON sign that’ll appear outside city hall. Who are they and why did they donate? Is this thing essential for Hamilton’s brand?

Guest: PJ Mercanti, Carmen’s Group.

Hamilton’s Chamber of Commerce is teaming up with the Greater Kitchener-Waterloo and Cambridge chambers to support the launch of a report titled “Up, Up and Away: The Impact of Restrictive Municipal Tendering in Ontario”. The report finds that Hamilton is paying 100% more on its projects than our neighboring cities.

Guest: Huzaifa Saeed, Policy and Research Analyst with the Hamilton Chamber of Commerce.
