Episode Description

Value Judgments is now also a podcast!

The problems with Canadian healthcare, especially its long wait times and access issues, have become increasingly urgent. In this episode, I speak to Rosalie Wyonch, senior policy analyst at the C.D. Howe Institute, about how we ended up in this situation and how we should get out of it. Her research has revealed some surprising findings about barriers to care.

Here are some other stories that caught my attention this week:

* This is a beautiful story about a couple that decided to have medically assisted deaths at the same time.

* An Angus Reid poll that was released today found that support for MAID access for people whose sole condition is mental illness is higher among people who recently sought mental healthcare and encountered barriers to access.

* The latest episode of What Roman Mars Can Learn About Con Law is not to be missed. If you don’t know about the history of margarine laws in the U.S., you’re in for a treat.

David F. Levi Bolch Judicial Institute Judgment Calls is a podcast hosted by David F. Levi, director of the Bolch Judicial Institute, former dean of Duke Law School, and former Chief Judge of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California. In Judgment Calls, Levi interviews judges about their work, their lives, and the challenges and opportunities they see in the U.S. courts. So often judges in the United States work in solitude and behind chambers’ doors. By offering a view into the lives and work of judges, this podcast aims to increase public understanding of what judges do — and how and why they do it. In doing so, we hope this podcast contributes to a greater awareness of the value of judicial independence and advances the Bolch Judicial Institute’s mission of supporting and protecting the rule of law.
