Host: Dave Trafford
Guests: Tim Hudak, Kathleen Wynne, Keith Leslie, John Wright
Episode Summary:
This week on On the Ledge, host Dave Trafford and the panel dive deep into Ontario’s Bill 5 and the mounting controversy surrounding its scope, timing, and lack of consultation—particularly with Indigenous communities. Kathleen Wynne calls it “a mess of this government’s own making,” while Tim Hudak views the push as necessary to unlock Ontario’s resource potential and economic resilience.
The conversation also pivots to school board reforms, raising questions about transparency, local governance, and the future role of trustees.
The episode wraps with an in-depth discussion on the family doctor shortage in Ontario and whether systemic changes in compensation and digital tools could reverse the trend of declining participation in primary care.
