Tim Powers fills in on the Graham Richardson Show - where we talk politics and also have a little bit of fun! You can catch us every single Friday from Noon until 2PM. Today, we check in with Sault Ste. Marie Mayor Matthew Shoemaker about the stakes of potential steel tariffs, and how they could impact his community. But first, we get the complete picture from CTV's Jeremie Charron.

On today's show:

  • Newfoundland and Labrador Premier Tony Wakeham chimes in on Canada-USA trade, plus the proposed Churchill Falls energy deal with Quebec.
  • Mark Holland, the CEO of the Canadian National Exhibition, highlights what's on deck for the annual event's 147th spectacle.
  • Eric Ham, a U.S. political analyst for CTV News and a former U.S. Congressional Staffer, reacts to U.S. Vice-President J.D. Vance's trade comments.
  • Ian Lee, an Associate Professor at Carleton University's Sprott School of Business, on what different trade negotiation outcomes might mean economically for our country.
  • Vancouver Mayor Ken Sim on an incoming plebiscite on strengthening open-air drug use laws.
  • TSN 1050 host Matt Cauz talks about a big series in The Bronx for the Blue Jays, as Toronto tries to make a late-season push for the American League's last playoff spot.
