On this episode of The Alex Pierson Podcast, our host takes on three major issues that affect all Canadians.

First, with construction projects all over the city causing major traffic headaches and congestion Alex speaks wth Raly Chakarova, the executive director of the Toronto and Area Road Builders Association (TARBA). Raly tells Alex why she and other major construction associations are also telling Toronto City Council that they have to do a much better job of laying out these projects for everyone's benefit.

Next, with news that the recent terrorist suspect who was planning an attack in New York City was on a Canadian student visa, Alex turns to an expert. Casey Babb a Senior Fellow with the Macdonald Laurier Institute who also teaches Terrorism and International Security at the Norman Paterson School of International Affairs. Casey and Alex talk about our broken immigration system and how it's being used by bad actors to gain access to North America.

And finally, in light of a startling report by Global News, we know now that roughly one child dies every three days in the provincial childcare network. Alex speaks with Jennifer Kagan and Philip Viater, who lost their 4-year-old daughter Keira in a similar manner, and why something that should never have happened in the first place keeps on happening.
