Are speed cameras protecting Toronto drivers — or just fleecing them? Across the GTA, automated speed enforcement is expanding fast, but not everyone is convinced it’s about safety.
In this episode, host Jim sits down with journalist and political commentator Anthony Furey to explore the rising backlash against speed cameras. From accusations of government overreach to Premier Doug Ford's fiery response, they dive deep into the controversy shaping the streets of Toronto and beyond.
Key topics in this episode:
• Are speed cameras reducing accidents — or just raising revenue?
• Why local governments are pushing for more automated enforcement
• Doug Ford’s stance and growing public pushback
• The data: is this about safety or surveillance?
• What fair traffic enforcement should look like
