Description

In this episode Angela Champ and Dave Traffod debate:

  • The city of Brampton, ON is considering fines for inappropriate 911 calls. From complaints about a wrong coffee order, to their TV not working, local police say 40% of 911 calls are non-legitimate. Do you agree with a penalty for misusing 911?

  • C. has become the first province no longer consider pets as property in divorce proceedings. Instead, animals will be seen as family members where care of the animal will be considered. Do you agree with the changes?
