The current climate of federal politics, Technology expansion for Albertans managing diabetes, & QR Calgary's Mitten Project

WELCOME TO THE MWSA PODCAST FOR WEDNESDAY, DEC. 18TH It’s been a ‘dynamic’ week in Ottawa – with some high-profile Ministers handing in their resignations – and conversations surrounding the future of the Liberal Party – and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau himself. We get an idea of how Canadians are feeling right now about the current ‘climate’ of Federal Politics - from Darrell Bricker, CEO of Ipsos Public Affairs. Next – it’s being called a ‘game changer’ for Albertans living with Diabetes. We hear details on the Government’s move to expand coverage for “Continuous Glucose Monitors” – and what this means for Diabetics in our Province, from Country Musician George Canyon - who was diagnosed with Diabetes – at the age of 14. And finally – it was a very special day at our “QR Calgary” Headquarters. We ‘opened up our doors’ to invite our listeners to pop by – and help us collect Mittens, Gloves – Toques and more, in support of “The Mitten Project”! We hear from Chaz Smith, President and CEO of Be The Change YYC – on how a ‘simple’ pair of Gloves or Mittens can make a BIG difference for those living ‘rough’ on the streets of Calgary.
