The federal government has released a budget that chock full of spending, spending and more spending with something for everyone. Canada's deficit has grown yet again but does that mean we're all going to hell in a hand-basket?\n\nGuest: Dr. Ian Lee, Associate Professor, Sprott School of Business, Carleton University\n\n-\n\nThe first flight on another planet has officially happened! A helicopter took flight from the Red Planet's surface making for what was very much a Wright Brothers-esque moment. Unfortunately many other things may have buried this news from you which begs the question, has space lost what made it so special decades ago? Will putting boots back on the lunar surface reinvigorate that fascination?\n\nGuest: Dr. Jesse Rogerson, Astrophysicist; Assistant Professor, Department of Science & Technology Studies, York University\n\n-\n\nWhy do players continue to pass the puck back when they start getting on a breakaway? It feels like there's no consistency in the NHL's rulings when it comes to suspending/fining players do they need different people making the decisions or should the players go back to fighting and policing themselves? Does Patrick Marleau's new record really mean that much when compared to who held it before him? These questions and more get answered in this week's edition of Sports Talk with Don Robertson.\n\nGuest: Don Robertson, Head Coach & Owner, Dundas Real McCoys & Broker of Record, ComChoice Realty
