The housing crisis – why Canadians are considering co-op housing as rent prices continue to rise.
Guest: Tim Ross, executive director of the Co-op housing federation of Canada.
Tax Deadline is fast approaching, but some developments are happening at the same time. This past Friday, workers at the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) voted in favour of a strike ahead of mediation that takes place later this month. The union wants a pay increase, more flexibility on remote-work, and improved job security and work/life balance. If this happens, it could have a big effect on a lot of things such as your tax refund.
Guest: Kelsey Campbell. Network Executive Producer, CKNW.
About 100,000 customers in Quebec are without power as Hydro Quebec works on its damaged energy grid after last weeks deadly ice storm. So far this storm is linked to 3 deaths and has left Southern Quebec and Eastern Ontario under a coat of ice. To get a look on the ground, Martin’s daughter Ruby (who lives in Quebec) joins us today.
