Are City Councillors talking for too long? Where's the line between inspiration and copying? Do we want politicians to be more like celebrities? North and South Korean athletes to march under the same flag?
If you've ever listened to a City Council meeting, you've probably noticed that some of the councillors like to talk but never seem to stop. Donna Skelly put forward a motion to cap the time someone is allowed to speak at any one time. What do you think of this?\n\nGuest: Donna Skelly, Ward 7 Councillor-Lana Del Rey is being sued for making a song that sounds nearly identical to Radiohead's Creep. A defense that is used fairly often is that the original song inspired the song in question but this begs the question, where is the line between inspiration and copying drawn?\n\nGuest: Michele Ballagh, Lawyer & Trade-mark Agent with Ballagh&Edward LLP-Justin Trudeau and Donald Trump have almost blurred the line between a politician and a celebrity with the insane tweets and selfies galore. Now Jagmeet Singh has opened up his personal life to the public when he invited the media to the moment that he proposed to his then girlfriend. Do we want our leaders to be more celebrity than politician?-North and South Korean athletes are going to be marching into the Olympics under the same flag that will just be a picture of the Korean Peninsula. Some South Koreans aren't happy about this and they have every reason to feel that way. How would you feel if the Olympics took place in Canada but the American and Canadian athletes marched under a flag with a picture of North America on it?\n\nGuest: Bubba O'Neil, Sports Anchor at CHCH
