Municipal Elections Are Coming - This Fall Fire Them All
Description
Today on Scott Fox After 9, there's lots of talk about municipal politics after last night's Toronto mayoral debate.
Scott has a simple message for voters heading into this fall's municipal elections. If your incumbent mayor spent the last four years repeatedly raising your taxes, they don't deserve your vote. The slogan is simple: This Fall, Fire Them All. Hear highlights from Olivia Chow and Brad Bradford, and Scott explains why he thinks voters should take a much closer look at the records of their municipal leaders before casting a ballot.
Also on this episode, Vice President JD Vance is wondering why some of the biggest names in artificial intelligence are suddenly asking the government to regulate them. Is it a sincere request because they're concerned about where AI is heading, or is something else going on?
You'll also hear from Congresswoman Nancy Mace, who is calling for Lindsay Clancy to be publicly executed. Scott asks a question that is certain to generate some strong opinions: Should Canada bring back capital punishment?
And finally, Mark Carney now says he doesn't want Canada to become an associate member of the European Union, but he does want a special relationship with Europe. What exactly does that mean? Could people eventually move more freely between Canada and Europe? Would Europeans be able to come to Canada, access social services and compete for jobs with Canadians? Scott has plenty of questions about where this relationship could be heading.
All that and more on today's Scott Fox After 9.
