In the end, he says now is not the time to be having this dialogue. Do you side against him, or is he right on the money? Guest host Chris Holski sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today's Question of the Day. Meantime, we have reached Day 3 of the Canadian Premiers meetings, as federal operations in Huntsville wind down for the night. CTV's Rachel Aiello dissects what has happened over the past 24 hours. Plus, one of Ottawa's best professional tennis talents is about to receive the city's highest honour!
