A Toronto Sun story by Joe Warmington has shown a cube van in Toronto carrying carrying video advertising depicting people carrying Palestinian flags, praying and protesting, with the banner headline on the van reading Is this Yemen? Is this Syria? Is this Iraq? No. This is Canada. Wake up Canada. You are under siege.  There have been accusations this is hate speech and Toronto's chief of police Myron Demkiw promised an investigation and TPS has posted online this is Islamophobic expression and provided contact information for anyone who has information.  Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow also denounced the van and its messaging. Others are saying what is being displayed in Toronto is nothing more than freedom of expression, guaranteed all Canadians, unless and except it is defined as hate speech, per the Supreme Court. Meanwhile another truck has been seen in Toronto displaying the words "Zionism is terrorism."  Is that hate speech, or freedom of expression? Guests: Joe Warmington. Toronto Sun.  Vivian Bercovici,

A heatwave in central/eastern Canada this week. A listener emailed following constant provincial and municipal warnings on how to deal with the heatwave "oh thanks. Whatever would I do without the great overseer." Too harsh? Also repeat stories about hot classrooms needing AC, etc.  @s_guilbeault on X assuring "we're all in it together" as far as surviving heatwaves is concerned. - Sorry if this rains on the parade, but heatwaves in the 90's Fahrenheit in June are not new. In the 1960's in an almost brand new high school in Montreal, none of our classrooms had AC, boys dress code required sports jacket, dress pants, shirt and tie and dress shoes when the mercury reached 90+F.   Guest: Greg Brady. Host: Toronto Today on AM 640. Greg's X post challenging the barrage of how to deal with hot weather warnings from muni/prov officials generated great response. Learn more about your ad choices.
