show moreKeith Leslie, John Wright and Dave Trafford pay tribute to David Rider for his 14-plus years of service as the Toronto City Hall Bureau Chief for the Toronto Star. David's moving on to take on the role of Senior Political Reporter in the GTA! Well done!!
Also, we dig in on some of the head scratching stories to come out of Queen's Park this past week, Including:
- The staffing crisis in healthcare, particularly the need for nurses and personal support workers, is a significant concern.
