    Jul 15 2024
    On this episode of The Alex Pierson Podcast, our host Alex Pierson first starts off speaking with JP Hornick, the president of OPSEU...the union representing LCBO workers. Alex talks with JP about the new regulations the province has introduced that will make it easier for consumers to purchase booze...and how it could affect ongoing negotiations with the province. Next, Alex is joined by an old friend, John Mraz, a former war room director for the Liberal party. Alex and John look at the Trudeau Liberals, and if the Prime Minister will take advantage of all the chaos and attention on Trump to quietly shuffle around ministers in his cabinet...and if it could even save the liberals. And finally, Alex is joined once again by Regan Irvine, the owner of Irv & Co. Regan tells Alex just how difficult and busy the past weekend was with dwindling alcohol supplies, and why he thinks this strike needs to end ASAP if we don't want to see more in the hospitality industry struggle, or even shutter their shops.
