Free For All Friday - Hour 1.

Amanda Galbraith breaks down the biggest stories of the day with Canada's top newsmakers.

On today's show:

  • Garry Keller, conservative strategist and vice president at StrategyCorp, on former B.C. premier Christy Clark endorsing Jean Charest for Conservative party leadership.
  • Miriam Porter, a travel blogger, who was left stunned after she ordered several vegan meals on a plane – but was served nothing more than a bottle of water during meal service.
  • For today's cross-country road trip segment, we speak with Amarjeet Sohi, Mayor of Edmonton.

Free For All Friday - Hour 2.

Hosts from all over the country join the roundtable to discuss the five biggest stories of the week. This week's show features panelists Sharan Kaur, former Deputy Chief of Staff to Bill Morneau and current political strategist, and Natasha Hall, co-host of Montreal Now on CJAD 800 in Montreal.

Topics:

  1. Air Canada is denying certain compensation claims through a regulatory loophole, calling staff shortages a 'safety-related issue'. Do you think their explanation makes sense?

  2. Montreal will be holding an independent investigation into the last-minute cancellation of the city's annual Pride parade. Organizers say they had failed to hire the required security staff. Is this acceptable?

  3. The male winner of 2022 National Bank Open will take home twice as much as the female champion. What are your thoughts?

  4. A mother has sparked debate online after asking if her 18-year-old son should pay rent. Where do you stand?

  5. A CEO from Ohio has gone viral online after he shared a photo of himself crying on LinkedIn following the layoff of several employees. Is his post is admirable or cringeworthy for demanding sympathy?
