In 2005, Rod received the Sports Media Canada award for Most Outstanding Broadcaster.Inducted into the media wing of the Manitoba Sports Hall of Fame, Black's broadcasting abilities are not limited to the sports world. The ultra-adaptable announcer is a popular guest speaker, a voice and film actor, an author, and the former co-host of Canada AM-Canada's most-watched national morning show.Despite his chaotic work schedule Rod still has found time to lend his voice and donate his time to a great number of Canadian charities – Special Olympics, Sick Kids Hospital, Childrens Aid Foundation, Easter Seals, United Way, Right to Play, Pro Action Cops and Kids, Kids Help Phone, Canadian Cancer Society, CNIB, CAMH, the Heart and Stroke Foundation, and many more.An honorary spokesperson and ambassador for Plan Canada, Rod has received the Queen's medallion and Diamond Jubilee medal for volunteerism.When asked what his favorite moment has been in his acclaimed career, Rod pauses and says, “The next one. Truly, I absolutely love every memory, but I also wake up every day knowing that there are new great memories to discover. That is what sport teaches us. To enjoy the moments and create new ones. Learn all the lessons from these games – good and bad - and hopefully adapt them into our day to day lives. Nothing can do that like sport.”#rodblack #mediapersonality #playbyplayannouncer #chrispomay #livewithcdp #barrycullenchevrolet #cebl #scarboroughshootingstarshttps://beacons.ai/chrisdpomayhttps://www.cameo.com/chrispomayhttps://www.barrycullen.com/Want to create live streams like this?

A new report from the Canadian Cancer society finds that the average cancer patient is grappling with nearly $33,000 in costs including out-of-pocket expenses and lost income during treatment and recovery. Dr. Stuart Edmonds is the Executive Vice President of Mission, Research and Advocacy at the Canadian Cancer Society; he spoke to Andrew Carter.

THE MEDICAL RECORD: ONTARIO PROPOSES EMPOWERING NURSE PRACTITIONERS TO LEAD MEDICAL CARE IN LTC FACILITIES Libby Znaimer is joined by Dr. Alisa Naiman, a family doctor practicing comprehensive primary care in Toronto, Dr. Malcolm Moore, Medical Oncologist, Princess Margaret Cancer Centre and Dr. Jamie Spiegelman, Internal Medicine and Critical Care Physician at Humber River Hospital. Ontario's new long-term care bill proposal would allow nurse practitioners to oversee residents' medical care, replacing physician medical directors. The bill also mandates dementia care programs and addresses abuse. Funding for adult day programs, and two innovative pilot projects focusing on emotional care and home-based services is also included. CANADA'S TOBACCO GIANTS PIVOT TO WELLNESS PRODUCTS AMID LANDMARK $32.5B SETTLEMENT Libby is joined by Cynthia Callard, executive director of Physicians for a Smoke-Free Canada and Rob Cunningham, Senior Policy Analyst at the Canadian Cancer Society. Canada's top tobacco companies may face a landmark class-action settlement to cover healthcare costs, damages to smokers, and fund research. Smoking rates have dropped from 27% to 12% in the past 25 years, with teen smoking falling to just 2%. Some provinces are considering age-based sales bans. FORD'S LEGISLATION TO DISMANTLE HOMELESS ENCAMPMENTS DELAYED UNTIL NEXT YEAR Libby is joined by Brampton Mayor Patrick Brown. Ontario has proposed legislation to allow the removal of homeless encampments and expand police powers on public drug use, following requests from 12 city mayors. However, the bill won't be debated or passed until early next year.

A cancer diagnosis isn't only terrifying, it's also costly — a new study from the Canadian Cancer Society reveals that the average cancer patient will spend more than $30,000 out of pocket on their treatment. Matt Galloway speaks to one of the study's authors, and a cancer survivor who had to decide between paying for medication and making rent.

ZOOMER SQUAD: OLDER CANADIANS SEE INCOME IMPROVEMENT SINCE 1976, BUT LAG BEHIND WORKING-AGE ADULTS SINCE THE 1990S Libby Znaimer is joined by Anthony Quinn, Chief Operating Officer of CARP, Bill VanGorder, Advocacy and Education Officer of CARP and John Wright, veteran pollster. A new Canadian Cancer Society report highlights the financial strain of cancer diagnoses in Canada, with patients and families facing an average cost of $33,000. While Ontario recently announced extra support for caregivers, questions remain about its effectiveness. Meanwhile, the holiday GST break on some food items has faced widespread criticism. SYRIA'S UNCERTAIN FUTURE POST-ASSAD REGIME Libby is joined by Dr. Amos Guiora, Professor of Law at the University of Utah and a former legal advisor to the IDF in Gaza and Dr. Elliot Tepper, Professor of International Relations at Carleton University. The Assad regime in Syria collapsed after rebel forces, led by Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, seized Damascus. The group, once linked to ISIS and Al-Qaeda, is still considered a terrorist organization by the U.S. and Western nations. This marks a major setback for Iran and Russia, with uncertain regional implications. A NEW STUDY REVEALS THE STAGGERING COSTS CANCER PATIENTS FACE Libby is joined by Dr. Jennifer Gillis, Director of Surveillance for the Canadian Cancer Society. The financial burden of cancer is significant, with total costs to society projected at $37.7 billion in 2024. This includes $30.2 billion in health system expenses and $7.5 billion for patients and caregivers. In the first year after diagnosis, lifetime costs for patients and caregivers average nearly $33,000.

After nearly six years of negotiations, Canada is about to settle a class action lawsuit against big tobacco companies. The suit is meant to compensate people who got sick from smoking, and compensate provinces for increased health care costs. The Canadian Cancer Society is pleased the settlement is almost done, but it wants some additions to the terms. Rob Cunningham is a lawyer and senior policy advisor with the cancer society, and he spoke with the CBC's Leigh Anne Power.

The latest episode of the Gaming News Canada Show is one of the breaking news variety.On the eve of next week's Kioti National in St. John's, the Grand Slam of Curling getting together with ALT Sports Data on a multi-layered partnership highlighted by growth and innovation around making the sport more wagering-friendly and also supporting the CGOS' efforts to grow curling internationally."Our partnership with ALT Sports Data will open up a new world of engagement for curling fans; where real-time insights, advanced analytics, and seamless betting experiences come together to help elevate the sport,” Nic Sulsky, the co-founder and CEO of The Curling Group, which acquired the series from Sportsnet in April, said in a media dispatch. “As the popularity of curling continues to rise internationally, our collaboration with ALT Sports Data will allow us to enhance the fan experience while unlocking new growth opportunities within untapped markets.”Sulsky and Michael Jordan, the co-founder and head of product for ALT Sports Data, joined us on the podcast to dig a little deeper into the details of the partnership – which has a betting element. The California-based business has a rather lengthy list of partnerships with non-traditional sports organizations, including the World Surf League, the Disc Golf Pro Tour and Power Slap while providing data to many of the biggest brands in sports betting. The deal with the CGOS includes ALT Sports Data becoming the exclusive global partner of data for sports betting worldwide.We spoke with Sulsky, who left his post as chief commercial officer of PointsBet Canada to co-found The Curling Group, about the changes that have already taken place under the GCOS's new ownership, the growth of the series' streaming audience, and the appetite by the curlers and their coaches for advanced analytics.Sulsky, who was diagnosed with non-Hodgins Lymphoma in 2009, will be on The Rock next week and will don his road gear once again to run and raise money for the Canadian Cancer Society's Curl for Cancer campaign.

One of the most pressing questions facing the peer-to-peer (P2P) fundraising industry is, "How do we better engage the next generation of fundraisers?"With each generational shift, it can be daunting to understand the motivations of the emerging group and adapt to their preferences. Gen Z and young Millennials, now aged 12 to 30, are no exception. Their expectations for transparency, community and social responsibility demand that P2P programs move beyond cookie-cutter fundraising approaches, focusing instead on building trust, fostering meaningful connections, and empowering personal autonomy.In this episode, Marcie Maxwell sits down with Laurie Benner, the Interim VP, Signature Programs at the Canadian Cancer Society, to chat about the organization's fastest growing P2P campaign, Relay For Life Youth Program. Together, they discuss how and why the organization has placed a strategic emphasis on the Gen Z & Young Millennial demographic and dig into the unique lessons learned about youth volunteers, including communication preferences and messaging. This episode also covers:Building trust with youth volunteersHow to harness unique skills of unique volunteersIdentify the right staff partners to work with this demographicMentioned LinksRelay For Life CanadaCanadian Cancer SocietyInstagram: @YouthRelayStay Connected on LinkedInConnect with LaurieConnect with MarcieConnect with the Peer-to-Peer Professional Forum (00:00) - Welcome to The P2P Soap Box (01:21) - Introducing Laurie Benner at the Canadian Cancer Society (05:32) - Addressing the Youth Market (20:30) - Finding the Right Staff (23:24) - Learn More and Get Involved!

It's a rare week when we don't hear about somebody having a fundraiser to help pay for out-of-town cancer treatment. Right now, people can access the province's medical transportation program for help with their expenses. But the program covers only part of the costs, and users have complained about long waits to receive the money they're entitled to. The Canadian Cancer Society runs its own transportation support program, and It wants to partner with the provincial government to eliminate all travel costs for cancer patients, potentially saving them thousands of dollars. The problem has been getting the government to sit down and make a plan. Heather Mulligan is the Atlantic manager for the cancer society, and she spoke with CBC's Leigh Anne Power.

Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in Canada, so the provincial government has been inviting women to take part in its breast cancer screening program, starting at age 50.

Heather Mulligan is the Canadian Cancer Society's manager of advocacy. She spoke with CBC's Leigh Anne Power.

The Canadian Cancer Society is calling on ALL provinces and territories to lower the starting age for breast cancer screening to age 40 for those at average risk.

Larry Ostola talks to Bill Vigars about his book, Terry & Me: Inside the Marathon of Hope. A twenty-two-year-old cancer survivor and amputee, Terry set out from St. John's Newfoundland in April 1980, aiming to run across Canada to raise money for cancer research. His first months on the road in Atlantic Canada and Quebec were not only physically taxing—he ran the equivalent of a marathon a day—but frustrating as Canadians were slow to recognize and support his endeavor. That all changed when he met a young man named Bill Vigars, who on behalf of the Canadian Cancer Society led a campaign to ensure that every person in Canada knew the story of this outstanding young man. Vigars was by Fox's side through all the highs and lows until the tragic end of his journey in Thunder Bay. A recurrence of his cancer cut short Terry's dream and, soon, his life. Now, for the first time, Vigars tells the inside story of the Marathon of Hope—the logistical nightmares, boardroom battles, and moments of pure magic—while giving us a fresh, insightful portrait of one of the greatest Canadians who ever lived. Bill Vigars was the Director of Public Relations and Fundraising for the Canadian Cancer Society's Ontario Division, and acted as Terry Fox's public relations organizer, his close friend and confidante. He set up several key events as the Run entered Toronto. Image Credit: Sutherland House If you like our work, please consider supporting it: bit.ly/support_WTY.
