Lisa Young on Brooks-Medicine Hat Byelection Results, US Mid-term Election Results, Winter at The Wilder Institute/Calgary Zoo, and Understanding your “Financial Photograph”

Voters in the riding of Brooks-Medicine Hat have spoken and elected their new MLA, Premier Danielle Smith. We’ll break down the results of the bye-election and get some insight as to what the future holds for each Party, as we move towards a Spring Provincial Election. We speak with Lisa Young, Professor of Political Sciences from the University of Calgary.   The mid-term elections also wrapped up south of the border on Tuesday. Who will control of the House and Senate and will the end result help to put an end to the ‘divisiveness’ in the United States? We discuss with Reggie Cecchini, Washington Correspondent with Global News.   We all know bears go into hibernation over the winter but what about our amphibian friends? We catch-up with Lea Randall of the Wilder Institute/Calgary Zoo to learn about a unique ‘version’ of hibernation practiced by Frogs called “brumination”.   Finally, it’s “Financial Literacy Month”. We continue our weekly series on the topic with Bruce Sellery, Financial Educator and CEO of “Credit Canada”. This time out, Bruce explains how to take your own personal “Financial Photograph” and why it’s an important tool to help you reach your goals.
