All eyes in Quebec will be squarely focused on Wednesday’s French Debate. That is, if a potentially pivotal Montreal Canadiens game wasn’t scheduled to air at the same time. To avoid a shootout between political barbs and national pride, NDP leader Jagmeet Singh is calling on debate organizers to make a switch to Wednesday’s start time. Bloc Quebecois leader Yves-Francois Blanchet is also on board with Singh’s idea. Should accommodations be made? Kristy Cameron sifts through the textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Meantime, a growing number of Ontario municipalities are pushing back against Doug Ford’s Strong Mayor powers, arguing they are unnecessary. Judy Brown, the Mayor of Perth, is among that crowd. She pops by for a visit in Hour 3.
