Oil has reached its highest price tag since 2022, coming in at nearly $120 per barrel on Tuesday before slumping to just $90 per barrel. Obviously, you've seen the rising gas prices by now. But the ongoing conflict in Iran is also driving up the price of transport goods, which could mean higher prices for everyday essentials. And if the price of airline fuel is going up, then passengers might be feeling the burn when trying to book a flight. Kristy Cameron digs deeper with aviation expert John Gradek, who has also held senior roles at Air Canada during his decorated career in the industry.

Bruyere Health is laying off 55 frontline health workers, according to the Canadian Union of Public Employees. It says the cuts will include 46 personal support workers and 9 nurses. Back in October, Ontario’s Financial Accountability Officer projected a reduction in 9,000 nursing and PSW positions by 2027-2028, which are largely based around the Ford government’s spending plan.

Kristy Cameron digs deeper with Douglas Currier, the President of CUPE Union Local 4540. He is also a Registered Practical Nurse at Bruyere.
