And Tamara Cherry, I have to say the only place at the moment where I sort of hear the theme from Jaws is when they reference the fact that dairy is part of this new deal, which means we may have yielded.
28:16
I don't think that the theme from Jaws is going anywhere anytime soon, so long as President Trump is still President John.
28:24
I mean, this is typical Trump deadline theater.
28:29
Is there even such a thing? is a deal with trump in the white house i would say no uh we are absolutely not out of the limbo state obviously for the next few days but i would say even beyond that we won't be out of the limbo state even if a so-called deal is signed remember the jubilation that we all heard when there was talk of this so-called memorandum of understanding in the middle east between canada and the u.s look where we're at right now with that i mean this is um this will hopefully allow small business owners in particular to sleep better at night i know we've been hearing from a lot of them this week but i just i have no confidence with any deal there's no such thing as a deal with trump until trump is no longer the person making those so-called deals

I'll always point out that I support legal gun ownership, but always point out that if you have a gun in the house, the likelihood that somebody is going to use it on somebody else who lives there or for suicide purposes is much higher.
30:40
Yes, exactly.
30:41
I'm going to get to that last point in a second here.
30:44
But I just want to say, like, I'm in Saskatchewan where we are absolutely not allergic to guns.
28:35
But honestly, I'll never quite understand why when people sit down and say this is the plan, they come up with one price and then we get something back years later that's three times bigger.
28:46
Yeah, exactly.
28:47
And I think that, you know, we've been hearing a lot about the supply chain stuff, and you mentioned the complicating factors, of course, on the Ontario line, but it just doesn't add up.
28:58
I was looking at some of those other global numbers as well this morning, John, and I think it was...
29:04
Harris that built or is building some 200 kilometers of subways for $54 billion.
29:14
For 200 kilometers, $54 billion.
29:17
Toronto is building 15.6 kilometers for $34 billion.
32:52
I mean, you've got the people who are always going to criticize any bike path, but the Bloor West bike path is hated.
12:11
about.One thing that became clear to Tamara is that who you are determines how the media reports your story
12:19
Marginalized people in general are treated differently.
12:24
How a young marginalized woman from poverty and has gone missing many times before might be referred to as somebody who has gone missing several times before, even though she's a 15-year-old girl and very vulnerable.
12:36
And so she's immediately labeled as, well, a habitual runaway who will just come back.
12:40
Whereas if a more affluent white girl were to go missing, there would be more immediate alarm bells, right? The police narrative is always the primary narrative.
12:52
The journalists are not getting proper training on communities.
12:55
And in general, they're never given the proper training to understand communities.

20 MINS LATER

We need to be more impactful, and so how do we do that?
