 
Deb Hutton opens the hour with listener calls on the rise in e-scooter injuries among children, asking whether the issue is dangerous devices, ineffective regulations, or a lack of parental supervision.
Then, Ontario Finance Minister Peter Bethlenfalvy discusses the province's review of major public agencies, including Metrolinx and the LCBO, and what the government hopes to achieve.
Later, Rui Rodrigues of the Retail Council of Canada examines the ongoing fight against retail theft following hundreds of arrests in Toronto and the broader impact of organized shoplifting on businesses and consumers.
The hour wraps up with Siobhan Morris, Queen's Park Bureau Chief for CTV News Toronto, breaking down the political implications of newly called by-elections in three Ontario ridings.
