ZOOMER SQUAD: OTTAWA'S GST HOLIDAY AND LATEST ON CANADA POST Libby Znaimer is joined by Rudy Buttignol, President of CARP, Darrell Bricker, CEO of Ipsos Public Affairs, and Anthony Quinn, Chief Operating Officer of CARP. There is a lot to unpack today. The Trudeau Liberals' GST holiday is in effect. Meanwhile, Canada Post workers are being sent back to work tomorrow by order of the Canada Industrial Relations Board. It comes after a month of striking. And, Chrystia Freeland has resigned from cabinet. What comes next? A POST-ASSAD SYRIA: WHAT IT MEANS FOR ISRAEL AND THE MIDDLE EAST Libby Znaimer is joined by Avraham Levine, a Major in the IDF Reserves, a resident of the Golan Heights and an expert with Alma, a research and education centre based in Israel, and Phil Gurski, President and CEO of Borealis Threat and Risk Consulting and a former senior strategic terrorism analyst at CSIS. In a post-Assad Syria, a lot remains unknown about what the country's new leadership will mean for Israel and the rest of the Middle East. And, what is Israel's strategy towards its neighbour?
