8:30 – There’s some damage control happening in the halls of Parliament after the breach of trust charge against Vice-Admiral Mark Norman was stayed on Wednesday. Attorney General David Lametti is insisting there was no government interference in the case, but that doesn’t square with comments made by Norman’s formidable lawyer Marie Henein. With many anticipating a huge lawsuit against the feds from Norman, we’re wondering if Justin Trudeau will step up and issue an apology to the former second-in-command of the Canadian Forces. You know what that means: it’s time for one of Gormley’s patented Reality Checks!

11:00 – This Sunday is Mother’s Day, the day when we acknowledge just how much our moms do for us. Nobody knows this better than author Anne Walsh, who interviewed more than 50 mothers for her book “Out of the Mouths of Moms: From the Trenches of Motherhood.” Walsh says mothers tend to build up unrealistic expectations for themselves, and can feel inadequate and guilty if they don’t live up to them. By sharing the struggles of mothers from all walks of life, Walsh hopes to help end the alienation some mothers face when they don’t want to admit how difficult their job really is. She joins John now to discuss the difficulties mothers face and how we should celebrate them on Mother’s Day.
