WITH GUEST HOST TAMARA CHERRY
8:30 – The Globe and Mail has been reporting on Harjit Sajjan, Canada’s minister of defence during the fall of Kabul in August of 2021, when he reportedly instructed special forces to rescue Afghan Sikhs while Kabul was falling. Sajjan refutes the story. Globe and Mail Ottawa Bureau chief, Robert Fife, joins Tamara Cherry.
9:00 – Now that Americans and Canadians have had time to process the dismal presidential debate from last week, Tamara Cherry welcomes Richard Shimooka, senior fellow at the McDonald-Laurier Institute and regular contributor to The Hub, to revisit and react to the debate last week through the lens of Russia, China and other autocratic regimes. Shimooka also discusses what he sees as the broader missing context of the Harjit Sajjan affair in Afghanistan.
9:30 – Open lines – Tamara Cherry goes to the phones to chat with listeners about what’s on their minds today. Call 1-877-332-8255.
10:00 – Being a juror can come with significant stress to make the right decisions as a responsible part of the Canadian justice system.

Tamara Cherry discusses the pressures on jury members with Mark Farrant from the Canadian Juries Commission, and takes your calls and questions.
11:00 – Online dating has been around for awhile, but the introduction of artificial intelligence into the world of dating can add some zest — and cause for concern — into the matchmaking mix. Neil McArthur, director of the Centre for Professional and Applied Ethics at the University of Manitoba, penned a fun article on the subject and joins Tamara Cherry to share why AI could make or break your dating life.
11:30 – Dating can be hilarious or hazardous at its best, whether in person or meeting someone online. Do you have a great (or terrible) dating story? Call Tamara to share at 1-877-332-8255.
