#226 - Is the Pressure MOUNTING?!

First, we explore the internal strife within the Liberal Party as members increasingly pressure Prime Minister Trudeau to step down before the next election. We discuss the reasons behind this push, the potential successors, and what this turmoil means for the party's future.

Next, we turn our attention to the streets of Toronto, where Palestine protests have disrupted and ultimately canceled the city's Pride Parade. We examine the motivations behind these protests, the reaction from the LGBTQ+ community, and the broader implications for public demonstrations and free speech.

Meanwhile, WestJet is under fire as a mechanic strike leaves thousands of customers stranded. We uncover the details of the strike, the company's response, and the impact on travellers and the airline industry as a whole.

Finally, we discuss the Canadian government's move to implement an automatic tax filing system. We explore how this system aims to simplify tax filing for Canadians, the potential benefits and drawbacks, and the reactions from taxpayers and financial experts.
