There's a $13 billion dollar plan in motion to bring a Volkswagen gigafactory to St. Thomas, Ont. It promises to create thousands of jobs. But should we be subsidizing global auto manufacturers?

The "Better Schools and Students Outcomes Act" is having a huge effect on Ontario's 72 school boards. The bill puts more focus on labour-ready career choices for students and it can force the sale of land owned by boards.

A group of young environmentalists had their case against the Government of Ontario dismissed, but the justice involved in the case had words for Doug Ford. Steve Paikin and John Michael McGrath discuss what was said and how the young appellants can still appeal the decision.
