Earlier today, we received confirmation that the 2024 Federal Budget will be delivered on April 16th. What items will you be looking for? We open the debate floor with our Political Heat panelists. But first, it’s time to tackle today’s Question of the Day. Here in Canada, hundreds of schools have banned the presence of peanuts and tree nuts in their classrooms. It’s a precaution to protect students and staff members who are vulnerable to these products, and this policy has been in place for decades. In fact, over 500,000 children are dealing with some sort of food allergy. However, a new batch of research has questioned the effectiveness of blanket, site-wide food restrictions. Does our country need to update its approach on this matter? Text into the show and let us know.
