The OShow with Laura Babcock

The bombshell announcement that the Ford government is closing the cherished Ontario Science Centre without notice has unleashed outrage across Ontario at a level not seen since the Greenbelt Scandal. Panellists Keith Leslie and Mark Cripps analyze Ford's latest scandalous decisions, the waste of taxpayer dollars on the Science Centre move, Ontario Place Spa, and cost overruns on the Ontario Line. They also decry Ford's lack of care for the most vulnerable people in our province, including seniors, families with autism, people with disabilities, and those living in poverty and homelessness—salty language warning.

In this no-holds-barred interview, host Laura Babcock dives deep with Ontario NDP Leader Marit Stiles, pressing on crucial issues. Nothing is off the table, from calling Premier Ford "Corrupt" to shedding light on scandals like Greenbelt, Ontario Place, Highway 413, Staples, Beer, Private Emails, Healthcare, Housing, and Education. The interview also explores Stiles's strategic approach to taking on Ford and whether the NDP and Liberals will fight each other or focus on Ford. Additionally, it delves into the state of Stiles' relationship with former NDP and now Independent MPP Sarah Jama and examines strategies to ensure her party's communications can effectively rival Ford's. If you care about the future of Ontario and, by extension, Canada, you won't want to miss a moment.
