Edward Greenspon speaks with Denise Amyot, CEO of Colleges and Institutes Canada, and Paul Davidson, President of Universities Canada, about lifelong learning in this pandemic and beyond, equitable access to education, and the broadband Internet challenges that could make-or-break these new ways of lifelong learning. Plus what's happening to Canada's international students in the COVID-19 pandemic? -- Music: Raro Bueno by Chuzausen under a creative commons license
