Larry Weinstein on "Dreaming a Jewish Christmas" & Bacchus Barua on Medical Wait Times

from Zoomer Week in Review · host Zoomer Podcast Network

The new documentary “Dreaming of a Jewish Christmas” explores the ultimate yuletide irony – that many of most iconic Christmas songs were written by Jews. From White Christmas to Winter Wonderland to the Christmas Song – the film explores the reasons behind the phenomenon. Libby sat down with the man behind the documentary, veteran filmmaker Larry Weinstein. Plus – How long have you had to wait for medical treatment that you needed? The Fraser Institute is out with its annual report called “Waiting Your Turn” and it shows wait times going up! You can expect to wait more than 41 weeks for a hip replacement but if you need cancer treatment you will access it in just three weeks. Libby speaks with the report’s author, Bacchus Barua, in Vancouver.
