Today’s edition of The Morning Show Podcast begins with a look at the polar vortex gripping London, bringing some of the coldest temperatures seen in years. That deep freeze sets the stage for a conversation with Ark Aid Street Mission about the mounting strain on homeless shelters and the loss of key federal funding. The show then shifts to national politics, breaking down Prime Minister Mark Carney’s response to comments from U.S. President Donald Trump. Next, attention turns local again with an interview on the closure of the Autoneum plant and what it means for Ontario’s auto sector. The program also highlights culture in the city with a preview of Primary Trust as it opens at The Grand Theatre, before wrapping up with practical winter advice on home heating, travel, and why a little whimsy might be exactly what 2026 needs.
Today’s edition of The Morning Show Podcast begins with a look at Donald Trump’s criticism of Prime Minister Mark Carney following his Davos speech and a breakdown of what could be included in a new Greenland framework involving NATO. The weekly panel then debates London city hall’s renewed push for north-end bus rapid transit funding and the growing inter-provincial dispute over Doug Ford’s planned Crown Royal boycott. We then turn to a new National Institute on Aging survey showing declining optimism about growing older in Canada, followed by a discussion on Marineland’s proposal to relocate the country’s last captive whales and dolphins to the United States. The show wraps up with a look at Ford’s call to boycott Chinese-made electric vehicles and what it could mean for his relationship with Ottawa, before ending on lighter ground with a conversation about kids swearing and when most of us hit our daily energy wall.
Today on The Morning Show Podcast, we begin with Mark Carney’s speech in Davos, where the prime minister received a standing ovation after declaring the long-standing rules-based international order is over — a moment some analysts say could define Canada’s foreign policy direction. We then turn to Canada–U.S. relations with Don Abelson from McMaster University, breaking down Donald Trump’s first year back in office and what Canadians should expect in 2026. Closer to home, we hear from Ben Johnson of ACTION as London city hall moves ahead with a traffic study in Old North following resident concerns. Retail analyst Bruce Winder joins us to discuss Walmart opening another Supercentre in London and why in-person shopping remains strong. We wrap up with a look at St. Thomas native Rachel McAdams receiving a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and whether London should do more to recognize people who’ve made lasting contributions to arts, sports, politics, and community life.
