The Hamilton Today Podcast with Scott Thompson:
An IPSOS poll caught Scott’s eye, asking Canadians what they think of the monarchy and whether it is time to rid the Canadian government of the “monarchy” aspect of its constitutional monarchy status. Scott speaks with Sean Simpson, VP of IPSOS, for more details. Along the way Scott asks retail analyst Bruce Winder about the “tipflation” epidemic creeping up with many debit machines prompting you for a 30% tip at everyday businesses across the country. Halton Regional Police Chief Steve Tanner says it’s time to tackle the problem of illegal guns being brought into Canada from the United States. Scott wonders why we have not cracked down on that, and asks Matt Gurney, columnist for the National Post and TVO, what political drive is missing in Ottawa. It is all coming up on the Hamilton Today Podcast.
Guests:
Michael "Pinball" Clemons, Hoverlink's chief government relations officer and former Toronto Argonauts star.
Bruce Winder, Retail Analyst & Author, ‘Retail Before, During & After COVID-19’
Michael Mazza, Executive Director of the Terry Fox Foundation.
