Room Where It Happens

Since the COVID-19 outbreak, we are seeing and hearing medical health officers in a way that we haven't before. You may have noticed that a lot of them happen to be women: Dr. Deborah Birx (US), Dr. Bonnie Henry (British Columbia), Dr. Deena Hindshaw (Alberta), just to name a few.Is this all a coincidence? We get to explore this and more with one of Canada's newest youngest medical health officers, Dr. Carol Fenton.

We explain the UK elections and Brexit using references to Love Actually, the movie. Because even if you don’t know anything about the former, chances are, you followed closely the early career of Hugh Grant as Prime Minister standing up to a bullying US president (totally fictional) and dancing around the Prime Minister’s residence.Labour Party campaigner and co-organizer of Campaign Lab, Hannah O’Rourke, imparts her extensive UK political knowledge to us and more importantly, agrees to play along with our Love Actually theme.

We ask government relations expert and the youngest female ever chosen to lead a conservative political party in Canada, Erika Barootes, to give us the coles notes on the 2019 Canadian Federal Election.You know on the Bachelor, how some contestants have the weirdest descriptions under their names (ie. chicken enthusiast and free spirit)? Well, we are going to do that with the federal party leaders. You’re not going to want to miss that.
