ABOUT THIS EPISODE
- Ontario, we are going to the polls in just under a month. Ann Rohmer is with political analyst and host of the "3 Minute Interview", Stephen LeDrew to better understand the what, why, when and where of this snap election.
- Blue Monday is now in the rearview mirror, but its root cause is still with us. Shaliza Bacchus spoke with Rebecca Shields, CEO of the York Region in South Simcoe Canadian Mental Health Association, about a brand new program launched to minimize the blues.
- A transportation link to the GO train is certainly welcome in smaller communities in the GTA, but when that link is going to add to traffic congestion, the benefit can come at a significant cost. Glen Perkins spoke with Mayor Tom Mrakas of Aurora about this double-edged sword.
- Navigating the complexities of consumer protection laws can be a daunting task for the average Canadian, which is why we have trained lawyers to help us out, but lawyers can be expensive. Bailey Higgins is with Rocco Scocco to talk about a group of York University, Osgoode Hall Law school students who are stepping in to pick up the slack.
- For decades, KUUMBA, Toronto’s largest and longest-running Black Futures festival has been a vital platform for celebrating black futures and embodying joyful expression. Shaliza Bacchus is with Diana Webley, the lead producer to tell us more.
- They say, laughter is the best medicine, and apparently it's even better when it's done as a team. Jim Lang is with Julie Betts and Laura Toogood to talk about Bent Fork Improv from Newmarket to discuss their soup connection.
