Welcome back to Trillium Talk, your must-see briefing from Village Media’s team of journalists at the Ontario Legislature.
Every Sunday, Scott Sexsmith sits down with one of our staffers at The Trillium to talk about the week that was at Queen's Park — and the week ahead.
On the show today is Editor-in-Chief Jessica Smith Cross, part of The Trillium team recently nominated for a CJF Jackman Award for Excellence in Journalism for their in-depth reporting on the influence of land developers in Ontario politics.
Doug Ford's cabinet shuffle was the big news heading into a 19-week summer break, and not only because it marked a return to prominence for a key figure in the Greenbelt scandal.
Jessica also breaks down the results of new polls commissioned by The Trillium, including some interesting responses to the province's plan to speed up access to booze in grocery and corner stores.
Funding for social services was also front and centre this week. We tell you why.
