Olivia Chow's gambit to lower the tax hike for Torontonians seems to have paid off.

The Pickering Nuclear Generating Station is getting refurbished. The project is already slated to cost $2 billion for the initial phase, but it could cost billions more to complete. Why invest in nuclear? Why not invest in more solar like the rest of the world?

And a note to listeners, audio episodes of the podcast will be dropping on Thursdays rather than Tuesdays starting next week. #onpoli is very excited to be introducing a video component to our show, but you'll still get the same high-quality audio in your feed every week.
