Wait times for Doctors and Clinics, is National Pharmacare on the right track, and using AI to make classrooms more inclusive!! - MWSA Podcast, May 30, 2024

WELCOME TO THE MWSA PODCAST FOR THURSDAY, MAY 30th   It feels like the wait times at clinics and for doctors just keeps getting longer and longer, but is that actually the case? We catch up with Nadeem Esmail, Senior Fellow with the Fraser Institute for details on the latest data on medical wait times in Alberta compared to the remainder of Canada.   Next, a lot has been discussed when it comes to the National Pharmacare proposal for our country, but does the plan put us on the ‘right track’, or are there more issues we need to iron out and discuss? We tackle the topic with John Adams, Senior Fellow at the Macdonald-Laurier Institute.   We’ve heard a lot of concerns from parents and educators about the use of AI in the classroom, but a new tool developed by the University of Calgary is working to turn AI into a ‘positive’ in the education system. We get details on the project from Soroush Sabbaghan, Associate Professor at Werklund School of Education at the U of C.
