Due to America’s tense political climate, not to mention their ongoing trade war with Canada, a lot of Canadians are turned off by U.S. tour destinations in 2025.

Does this familiar trip to the neighbour’s house frighten you? Kristy Cameron does a vibe check of the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. On the lighter side of things, guess who’s back to deliver his weekly gardening advice? That’s right, folks! Carson Arthur is back in the saddle, and he is here every single Thursday until the snow flies again. If you have any gardening problems or inquiries that need solving, text into the show or send us an email.
