We begin with our weekly check-in with Mercedes Stephenson, Global News Ottawa Bureau Chief and host of The West Block. This time out, Mercedes brings us details on her conversation with Justice Minister Arif Virani about the current issues with Canada’s bail system and the reforms needed to create a more robust program. Next, as the opioid crisis in Canada continues to be a troubling issue, we learn about some new “virtual tools” being used to help fight the battle against the deadly drugs. We get details from Dr. Monty Ghosh, Professor of Addiction Medicine at the University of Alberta.   Finally, from Planes and Trains to Automobiles! The “Travel Lady” Lesley Keyter has quite the trip planned to Europe! We catch up with Lesley for details on her upcoming “whirlwind” European Tour.
