The housing market in Ontario is off the charts right now. In the latest episode of Inside the Village, Michael Friscolanti and Scott Sexsmith try to get some clarity as to why from Tim Hudak, CEO of the Ontario Real Estate Association. Also, free transportation to polling stations? One Cambridge city councilor is trying to make that happen for all residents of his community—and hopes other cities follow suit. And the city of Greater Sudbury has made a bold decision: to close all comments on its Facebook page. Ed Archer, the city’s CAO, explains why that move is long overdue.
