Mornings With Sue & Andy November 29, 2022

We begin with our weekly conversation with Mercedes Stephenson, Global News Ottawa Bureau Chief and Host of the “West Block”. Mercedes brings us details of her interview with Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Jolie on Canada’s long awaited “Indo-Pacific Strategy” and how it could impact our relationship with China, moving forward.   It has been a brutal flu season and children are being hit hardest this year. Why is this year’s virus so prevalent among kids and how is our healthcare system keeping up with such high traffic in hospitals with the flu, RSV and Covid cases? We discuss with Dr. Cora Constantinescu, Pediatric Infectious Disease Specialist from the Alberta Children’s Hospital.   It’s “Giving Tuesday”, we learn all about the great work the “Kids Cancer Care” program does right here in the city and tell you how you can ‘triple’ your donation dollars by supporting this valuable organization.  Finally, the weather is downright CHILLY these days, and if you’ve been struggling to keep warm, don’t worry help is on the way! We catch up with “The Gadget Guy” Mike Yawney for the latest ‘tech’ solutions to keep warm during the cold winter months ahead, from heated coats and hand warmers to a ‘toasty’ toilet seat!
