Keith and Louie discuss the most recent reporting surrounding Premier Doug Ford’s Chief of Staff using personal email when discussing the Greenbelt and the Ontario Information & Privacy commissioner planning to issue a special report on the Ford government’s handling of documents.

The two also discussed Ford’s plan to expedite the plan and costs to expand alcohol sales across the province, and whether he expects an early election call from the Ontario government after the premier wouldn’t rule it out when asked by reporters last week.
