Hamilton's budget debate continues, History's largest cruise ship was partly built in Hamilton, Up to 20% of watching a sports game involves gambling ads & Why shouldn't LRT be ran by a contracted operator?
The budget debate rages on for City Council as they work to lower the tax hike it'll pose to Hamiltonians.\nGuest: Ted McMeekin, Councillor for Ward 15\n-\nThe biggest cruise ship in history has her maiden voyage this weekend. A prominent piece of this ship was built right here in Hamilton. What part(s) was built here and what goes into constructing it?\nGuest: Tom Beach, President of Handling Specialty\n-\nWhen you watch a sports game, there's more than just the game that you're seeing. It would appear that up to 20% of your viewing involves watching advertising for gambling.\nGuest: Steve McAllister, Editor-in-Chief of Gaming News Canada\n-\nA staff report for the City of Hamilton suggests that a contracted operator should be chosen to run the LRT rather than the City itself. Is that in our best interest? Scott speaks with someone who vehemently disagrees.\nGuest: Eric Tuck, Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU) Local 107
