The Importance of on-Demand Treatment for Drug Use

Nate is joined on this episode by former Mayor of Toronto, David Miller. 

Before running for public office, he was a partner at the Toronto law firm Aird & Berlis, where he specialized in employment and immigration law and shareholder rights. He became a Metro councillor in 1994, and in 1997 he was elected to the new City of Toronto council where he served two terms prior to becoming mayor.

Following his time as Mayor, Miller briefly returned to law before serving as president and CEO of the World Wildlife Fund Canada from 2013 to 2017, after which he began working as the director of international diplomacy at C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group.

As you may know, there’s an unexpected Mayoral race here in Toronto, so the conversation does cover some of that ground. As well as issues affecting municipalities all across Canada - housing, transit, how we should see the relationship managed between municipalities and provincial and federal governments, and how we should think about ambitious city building.
