In her new book 'Lost in Canada,' author Lydia Perović says she was happy with her decision to come to Canada from her home in Montenegro until about five years ago when Canadian culture started to change significantly. Perović says she noticed Canadian arts journalism and criticism began to disappear, leaving her colleagues to take their expertise in topics like literature and opera to other countries, or even to real estate journalism. In the book, Perović explores questions like: Is she really a Canadian? Is the Canadian project a lost cause? What is a life without a national culture? Perović joins Gormley to tell us more about her experience.
Every day, an estimated 11 Canadians will die by suicide, and a Saskatchewan researcher is the first to show service dogs can help to bring that number down. A first-of-its-kind study by Alexandria Pavelich, a PhD student researcher in the University of Saskatchewan’s Office of One Health & Wellness, completed as part of a broader study led by University of Saskatchewan sociology professor Colleen Dell, followed four Canadian veterans over a 16-month period as they were paired with service dogs to help them deal with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), substance use and suicidal ideation. She found is the dogs were a direct catalyst in preventing suicidality among the veterans, and helped to make them feel socially supported, and she joins Gormley to tell us more. She’ll be speaking at the upcoming Congress of the Humanities and Social Sciences, which is open to the public. You can find out more and register at Congress2022.ca.

Bill C-10 is back with a vengeance in the House of Commons. The bill, now known as C-11 and titled the Online Streaming Act, subjects streaming companies like Netflix to the same rules as traditional Canadian broadcasters, but critics are concerned it opens the door for Canadian Radio‑television and Telecommunications (the CRTC) to regulate and police user-generated content online. Michael Geist led the charge of opposition to Bill C-10, and he joins Gormley to outline the issues he says are still present in the new iteration.

Shannon St Onge was stranded on a grid road near Grand Coulee during Monday's blizzard, and feared the worst after being told by a 9-1-1 operator that no help was coming. She posted her location on a local Facebook group for the Town of Pense, and a former resident who now lives in Vancouver was able to identify the farm where she was stranded by the sign. A network of locals sprang into action to help, and contacted the farmer who came out on foot to lead St Onge's vehicle - and two others - to safety on foot. His family took them in overnight, and everyone made it home safely in the morning. St Onge joins John to tell us the story of how Saskatchewan people pull together to help each other out.

John reviews the numbers and shares his thoughts on whether publicly-released "worst-case-scenario" models do more harm than good. What do you think about the COVID modeling data we’ve seen during the pandemic? Call 1-877-332-8255 and let us know.
According to a new survey from Angus Reid, a majority of Canadians say it's time to end all COVID-19 restrictions and let Canadians manage their own level of risk.

Premier Moe took to Twitter over the weekend and said the proof of vaccination policy would end in Saskatchewan in 'the not-too-distant future'. Is now the time to end the restrictions in Saskatchewan?
