Now and Next – May 29, 2025**
**Host:** Dave Trafford
**Guests:** Lindsay Broadhead (Broadhead Communications), Bob Reid (Broadway Strategies), Anne Marie Aikins (AMA Communications)

In this wide-ranging roundtable episode, the Now and Next team dives into a pivotal moment in Canadian politics and public leadership. With Mark Carney’s first throne speech and question period as Prime Minister, the panel reflects on a noticeable shift in tone in Ottawa—from performative partisanship to focused governance.

They explore public expectations, the symbolism of a renewed national identity, and Carney’s pledge to “get shit done.” The conversation also spans urban transit challenges, the appointment of a new TTC CEO, long-delayed infrastructure upgrades, and how leadership credibility can reshape civic trust. The show ends on thoughtful notes about civic space design, public safety at festivals, and the complex debates surrounding historical memorials like the John A. Macdonald statue.
