“They Clearly Have Some Cash, Because They’re Buying Planes”

April 17, 2026 2:59 pm Published by

Former city councillors Roger Caranci and Cheryl Miller joined Craig at the studio to breakdown the issues of the week.

First, they look at the proposed changes to the trustee role at Ontario school boards. Can we make the changes needed to get the education system on the right track?

Then, the City of London has a multi-million dollar surplus from the property tax base. Should that be spent on homelessness initiatives?

And the story that ties the two together – Premier Doug Ford has gone out and bought a private jet for nearly $29-million. Maybe some of that money could have helped the school system?
