Guido Guerra was one of the most respected Guelph leaders of medieval Florence: a soldier, statesman, and civic hero whom Dante himself clearly admired. So why does Dante place him deep in the Inferno among those punished for violence against nature? In this episode, we move from Guido the historical man, to medieval ideas about sin and salvation, and finally to a larger question: are we reading Dante as a historian when we should also be reading him as a poet passing judgment on the Florence that exiled him? #HistoryOfThePapacy #Dante #DivineComedy #Inferno #GuidoGuerra #MedievalHistory #Florence #Guelphs #ChurchHistory #ItalianHistory Let us know what you think about this episode in the comments section below!

Fungicide resistance is a growing concern around the world, but Canadian growers still have an opportunity to stay ahead of it by learning from regions where resistance is already well established. Speaking at Bayer Crop Science's Fungicide Resistance Workshop at Guelph, Ont., Bayer global fungicide lead Dr. Andreas Mehl says Canada's relatively low fungicide use... Read More
Roommates. They can be great, they can save you money....and they can also make your life a living hell.Roommate households are the fastest growing living arrangement in Canada, so we wanted to know, how are people making it work? (or not)Here are five stories from our Now or Never archives of people navigating some tricky real-life moments with their roommates.Deb King never thought she'd need to find a roommate at 67 years old, but that's exactly what she's doing right now. We join her on the hunt for “someone normal,” as she fends off dating requests, does background checks, and just tries to find a home for herself and her dog, Cirque du Soleil.Jewel Casey and Jordan Woodward have spent the past seven months living together in an apartment in Invermere, B.C.…as exes. Despite the rough patches, sticking out their year-long lease together has led the couple to come to some surprising realizations about where their relationship went wrong.It's move in day for Marisa, Matt, Chet, and Izabella, a group of friends in Toronto who just bought a 1.3 million dollar home together. They say that co-owning is their only way to crack the Toronto housing market. So how do they decide who takes out the garbage? And what happens if one of them gets a job in another city? They show us the whiteboard and 20-page contract that gets into the nitty-gritty of cohabitating with friends.After Bev Suek's husband passed away, she realized she didn't like to live alone. So she opened up the doors to her six-bedroom home in Winnipeg, for other 50+ women who don't want to live alone, either. Trevor drops in for a visit with the real-life Golden Girls of Winnipeg, to find out how they handle everything from making meals to overnight guests (wink wink).Sarah Scanlon and Jennifer McDonald joke that their 1000 square foot, three bedroom bungalow in Guelph is an 'eco-lesbian retreat.' Best friends for the last 17 years, they decided to buy a house together in 2021. And if you think close friends (who also happen to be exes) don't necessarily make great roommates....Sarah and Jen are here to prove you wrong.

In 2006, there was a lot of momentum on tackling the climate crisis: Elizabeth May won the leadership promising to make electoral gains, An Inconvenient Truth was a critical and commercial movie hit, and even The Guardian noted it was “the year the world woke up” to the climate action, and then… Well, progress stalled. Now, 20 years later, the Greens are looking for a leader again, but in this political climate can the Greens still make gains? After 13 years as leader, May announced her retirement in 2019, and the next year, after eight rounds of voting, Toronto lawyer Annamie Paul took over. Without re-litigating what happened next, let's just say that there was a lot of internal strife in the party, and Paul quit. May returned to the leadership in 2021, and then tried a co-leadership arrangement with Jonathan Pedneault, but that too hit a snag when Pedneault finished fifth in Outremont in 2025. But Pedneault wasn't the only one to have a disappointing election night in 2025. Up the road in Kitchener Centre, Mike Morrice lost re-election as MP by a startlingly slim 375 votes. Morrice decided that he was too close to give up and pledged to run again in the next federal election but then he decided to take on a new opportunity: running for leader. Whether its with Morrice in the head office or not, can the Green Party regain their lost momentum? Mike Morrice will join us this edition of the podcast to talk about the hard lessons learned from his election loss, and why he wants to be the leader of the Green Party beyond slogans. He will also talk about how the Greens won and lost confidence over the last 20 years, how the time may be ripe for a resurgence and how politicians can overcome voter cynicism to believe that change is possible. And finally, he will discuss why he will remain bound to the Kitchener area if ends up becoming party leader. So let's talk about what it takes to lead a federal party on this week's Guelph Politicast! You can follow Morrice on Instagram, check out his Kitchener Centre campaign website here, and you can learn more about his bid to lead the Green Party here. The Green Party leadership campaign is now underway, and you learn about Morrice and the other candidate Nira Dookeran and get important dates at the Green Party of Canada website. The new Green leader will be announced after the close of voting on November 14. You can also watch this interview on YouTube! The host for the Guelph Politicast is Podbean.

My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is Cinda Gault, author of the book Everything I Hope For. Cinda has demonstrated an enduring interest in women's lives. An undergraduate degree in Psychology led to her founding an agency to help victims of domestic violence. She followed up a stint as a prison guard with an M.A. in Criminology focused on domestic violence. Inspired to become a writer and learn about the literary tradition she wanted to join, she completed a doctoral dissertation on Canadian women's writing during the “identity years” of 1965-1980. In 1988, she published her first novel as a Harlequin Superromance set in Guelph. Her first historical novel, This Godforsaken Place, was published in 2015. In between these novels, she won third prize in an international short story contest, earned a Ph.D. in English, and raised two sons. In 2023, she published A Small Compass, welcomed two granddaughters, and has a new novel, Everything I Hope For, set in the 1970s. In my book review, I stated Everything I Hope For is a young adult late 20th century historical fiction by Cinda Gault. Although it is difficult for me to believe that 1970s is now historical, Cinda does an excellent job thrusting us into the world of Jesus Freaks and hippies. In this coming of age story, we meet Belinda who is a senior in high school who has always been a good student and honest with her parents - especially her open-minded mother. But as her parents' relationship disintegrates and Belinda begins dating, everything she thought to be true about her relationship with her mother turns upside down. At seventeen, she finds herself on her own and making adult choices she's not quite ready to make. We watch as she navigates familial bonds, romance, lust, friendship, higher education, finding a job, and true love. Throughout it all, Belinda is simply hoping to find what she's always wanted - to be accepted for who she is and to be allowed to grow and become. I enjoyed this book and think you will too!

This week on Open Sources Guelph, we're on vacation. No, seriously. Sure, someone once said that there's no rest for the wicked, but here at OSG headquarters on Snake Mountain, we believe that a restful two-week summer vacation makes our biting political commentary even more biting. As we rest and recreate, we're pleased to bring you some previously enjoyed episodes of the show, and you may still enjoy them indeed! Proof of Life. Many you come here to learn what we're talking about on Open Sources this week, or maybe you always come here when the podcast version of the episode is posted. You may now be concerned to learn that there is no episode these two weeks, and you maybe be concerned that something has happened to Adam and Scotty that now makes them unable to deliver a high-quality sardonic take on the news plus engaging interviews with local newsmakers, but take our word for it, we'll be back! *Programming Note: Open Sources Guelph will return with new episodes on Thursday August 20. Open Sources is live on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca at 5 pm on Thursday.
Why has Homer's The Odyssey captivated audiences for nearly 3,000 years? And why is Christopher Nolan's new adaptation generating so much excitement? Brian Crombie is joined by Dr. John Walsh, Associate Professor at the University of Guelph, Director of Defence Industrial Strategy, and classical scholar, for a fascinating discussion about one of history's greatest epics. They explore the enduring legacy of Homer, the acclaimed Emily Wilson translation, Nolan's cinematic vision, and the timeless themes of courage, leadership, family, homecoming, sacrifice, and resilience. The conversation also examines how ancient Greek ideas about democracy, citizenship, governance, and leadership continue to influence the modern world, proving that The Odyssey remains as relevant today as it was nearly three millennia ago.
Reports of ticks are surging across Canada as blacklegged ticks expand into regions once too cold or dry to support established populations. What is driving their spread—and what does it mean for the risk of Lyme disease and other tick-borne illnesses?In this special Editor's Choice episode, Dr. Kirk Barber speaks with Dr. Katie Clow, one of Canada's leading researchers in tick ecology and tick-borne disease. They discuss how climate change, migratory birds, wildlife and changing habitats are reshaping the country's tick populations. Dr. Clow explains how ticks find and attach to their hosts, how the bacteria responsible for Lyme disease moves from a tick's gut into its saliva, and why removing a tick promptly can reduce the risk of transmission.The conversation also examines striking regional differences in infection rates, the emergence of anaplasmosis and Rocky Mountain spotted fever, the challenges of controlling ticks in the environment, and the potentially alarming arrival of invasive species such as the Asian longhorned tick in North America.Dr. Clow is an associate professor at the University of Guelph's Ontario Veterinary College, where her research explores the connections between human, animal and environmental health.This episode is supported by an educational grant from Sun Pharma Canada through the CDA Corporate Supporter Program.Dr. Barber and his guests do not receive any financial reimbursement for the production of this podcast.For more great CDA podcasts check out Dermalogues, our Residents podcast hosted by Dr Kerri Purdy.To learn more about the work of the Canadian Dermatology Association, please visit our website at dermatology.caThis podcast is produced by David McGuffin and Graham McGuffin of ExploreProductions.ca
This is a big year for Guelph. Our downtown landscape is changing, we have an election in the fall that will usher in a new mayor and council, and then we will mark the city's 200th birthday in the spring. Two centuries ago, it all began with one man from Scotland cutting down a tree near what we now call the Eramosa River, but how much about John Galt do we actually know? Well, as you will recall, one local academic knows a lot... A lot of assumptions have been made about Galt, and the popular wisdom for years was that he was a failure as the head of the Canada Company, yet the city he created survives and thrives 200 years later. But what about Galt as a colonizer? It may surprise you to learn that Galt, ever the iconoclast, had some unusual ideas for how settlers and Indigenous people should get along as equals, and it was among the reasons why he was sent back to Scotland two years after founding Guelph. This week, we're joined by someone who might know Galt better than anyone (in the 21st century). Gil Stelter, a professor emeritus from the history department at the University of Guelph, has dedicated his life's studious endeavours to the man who's name is on the proverbial patent for Guelph. In his career, Stelter has amassed quite a number of insight into the man, his career as a businessman and author, and what his intentions were for Guelph, some of which actually came to pass. Revisiting an interview from the podcast in August 2023, Stelter gives us a breakdown on who John Galt was, and his notoriety beyond the borders of Guelph. He will also talk about what Galt's written works tell us about his thinking, how his relationship with John Brant informed his thinking when settling Guelph, and what Galt might think of Guelph now nearly 200 years later. Also, he will talk about how Galt might have been right at home among the celebrity businessmen of modern day. So let's talk again about the John Galt you don't know on this week's Guelph Politicast! Learning the basics about the life of John Galt is relatively easy, but if you want to follow up on this particular discussion, you can consult Galt's written works, including The Apostate or Atlantis Destroyed, which you can buy through Vocamus Press. You can also watch Stelter's presentation to the Guelph Historical Society on Rogers' YouTube channel. The host for the Guelph Politicast is Podbean.

Deb Hutton speaks with Rebecca Shields, President and CEO of Kids Help Phone, about why more young Canadians are seeking mental health support overnight and what it says about the challenges facing today's youth. Next, Dave Snow, political scientist at the University of Guelph, discusses a new analysis examining whether CBC's corrections record points to political bias in public broadcasting. Later, CTV News anchor Michelle Dubé joins the show to discuss comments from Kate Winslet about aging in Hollywood and changing attitudes toward women, appearance, and authenticity on screen. The hour wraps up with John Michael McGrath of TVO, who weighs in on the growing debate over term limits for politicians and whether they would strengthen or weaken local democracy.
This week on Open Sources Guelph, we're building bridges. And speaking of bridges, we will talk about a famous new bridge down in Windsor, which may now be a monument to the latest phase of the Canada/U.S. trade war. In other news, we will talk about a new study that paints a worrying picture of Canada's healthcare system (again!), and in the interview we will focus on local matters and the end of the council term with a member of Guelph city council. This Thursday, July 30, at 5 pm, Scotty Hertz and Adam A. Donaldson will discuss: Howe You See Me. The Gordie Howe Bridge spanning Windsor and Detroit finally opened this week, but only after Canada capitulated to Trump administration demands, and in the midst of a renewed trade war no less with President Donald Trump seeking supposed payback for Canada's hard line on American alcohol, lumber and dairy products. Canadians, especially opposition Conservatives, are now wondering if Mark Carney has a plan to take on Trump and his cronies, but when, if ever, will we see it? Emergency Care. A new report released this week shows that 1-in-10 emergency room doctors are thinking about quitting their specialty. Why? They feel like they're not being given the support they need to give patients the care they deserve. This comes a week after Canada's first ministers released a statement demanding more stable funding from the federal government, and yet it's the provinces that are in charge of healthcare spending. So is anyone listening to doctors or are they just passing the buck? Term Limits. Guelph City Council is now on summer break, and when they return in September there will be only two more meetings before the election. So we're essentially at the end of the term, and who better to indulge in a little self-examination that Ward 3 Councillor Phil Allt? Allt will join us to talk about the ways this term of council will be remembered, plus he will wax on some of the breaking news this week including the sale of the Niska lands and the repeated appeals of police officer Corey McArthur. Open Sources is live on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca at 5 pm on Thursday. Programming Note: Open Sources will be running previously enjoyed episodes on Thursday August 6 and 13. We will be back with new episodes on Thursday August 20.
Without bees, our world would become a very different place. How are bee populations doing in Canada as they deal with a dangerous parasite and what is being done about it? Dr. Paul Kelly from the University of Guelph joined Mike Stubbs to discuss the issues.
Chicken has long been seen as an affordable source of protein, but that may no longer feel true when you're looking at the price tag at the grocery store. As the cost of meat continues to rise, more Canadians are turning to chicken—but increased demand could also be putting pressure on prices. Mike von Massow, a food economics professor at the University of Guelph, joins Tamara to explain why chicken is so expensive right now and if consumers could see relief anytime soon.
Guelph City Council is now on summer break, a long break and then just a few more meetings before the municipal election campaign can really get underway. Perhaps you can't handle anymore council talk, maybe you just want to be free to think about getting an ice cream at the Boathouse, or plan to visit all your favourite vendors at Ribfest, but after this you will be free... The recap of May, June and July's council meetings! A lot of big stuff came down in the last few months. Remember the debate over the McQuillan's Bridge and whether the City should get a newer, cheaper bridge? Of course that wasn't the only debate involving trails, which was a recurring theme with a lot of planning discussions. And speaking of planning, there was also a big debate about eight hectates of the Niska lands, a debate that did not turn out the way people hoped. And on the topic of hopes, how is the City of Guelph doing with achieving the goals of the strategic plan? Let's find out as we recap the spring and summer events at council on this edition of the Guelph Politicast! There are two more council meetings before the election, and they're both in September. First the planning meeting will take place on Wednesday September 9 and that agenda will drop on the City of Guelph website on Thursday August 27. Stay on top of council coverage every week by following @adamadonaldson on Blue Sky and by subscribing to the Guelph Politico Tip Sheet newsletter.

The 2026 World Cup has finished and the final two teams, Spain and Argentina, have stirred up old notions of what we call soft power. Sports play a large role in how countries display their soft power, but it can often be confused for cooperation. Indeed all power is contested and soft power is no exception, and the contest is clear when two national teams meet in a sports contest. Examples of soft power interactions in sports include the US beating the USSR in hockey in the 1980 Winter Games or the Soviets defeating the US in basketball at the 1972 Olympics during the height of the Cold War. No sport, however, garners more international interest than soccer (or what the rest of the world calls football). Our guests have written a new book that defines the Cold War rivalry through the lens of ten historic soccer matches. The book is called Cold War Football: A history in Ten matches.

When it comes to the various cuts of pork, consumer preferences have changed dramatically over the past 20 years. Since COVID consumers have been contending with steadily increasing food prices. Hubert Muckel, a retired southwestern Manitoba butcher-meat cutter who retired in 2023 after working more than 50 years, estimates food prices have approximately doubled over the past four years.The price of medium ground pork has gone from $1.99 a pound to over $4.50 a pound for the same product.AMDThere is a growing recognition of the need to address anxiety and depression among farmers.The Manitoba Farmer Wellness Program is on on-line support program for farmers, their families and their employees who are dealing with anxiety or depression. Program Vice-chair Roberta Galbraith says the program was a response to a 2016 University of Guelph study that revealed depression and anxiety levels within the agriculture sector, particularly among farmers, were substantially higher than the general population. She says a follow-up 2021 study that showed the needle hadn't moved.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Cyclospora: it's a microscopic organism found in water, but can spread to food-- especially produce. Found most commonly in wet and warm climates, it can travel into your grocery store through things like imported lettuce, raspberries, carrots, or more. And once you catch it, it causes some 'explosive' problems. Host Caryn Ceolin is speaking with Keith Warriner, a professor of food microbiology in the department of food science at the University of Guelph to find out what Cyclospora is, what it does to the human body, and what the risk of it coming to Canada really is. We love feedback at The Big Story, as well as suggestions for future episodes. You can find us:Through email at hello@thebigstorypodcast.ca Or @thebigstory.bsky.social on Bluesky
In episode 94 (Season 5 finale), The Boston Sisters talk with Lawrence Hill, author of The Book of Negroes (2007), a novel inspired by an 18th-century British military ledger of African Americans who gained freedom serving the British in the Revolution. Hill's novel was adapted by the CBC into a miniseries in 2015. Hill discusses the novel's creation, Canada's complex history of slavery, shared African American/African Canadian history, and how book bans affect historical narratives.Content Note: “The Book of Negroes” is a 1783 historic document of names of Black Loyalists who fought for the British and later settled in Nova Scotia. This history was the inspiration for the title and story for the novel by Lawrence Hill published in 2007. The original title was changed in the U.S. to “Someone Knows My Name,” but went back to the original title following the success of the 2015 miniseries adaptation. In the podcast, “Negroes” is only mentioned in this context (1783 ledger, book and series titles).Lawrence Hill is the author of eleven novels and nonfiction works published worldwide and translated into many languages. His bestsellers include The Illegal and The Book of Negroes, which he adapted into an award-winning CBC/B.E.T. miniseries, and his memoir Black Berry, Sweet Juice, the first book-length exploration of Black and white, mixed-race identity in Canada. A professor of creative writing at the University of Guelph for thirty years, he has earned The Commonwealth Writers' Prize, the Rogers Writers' Trust Fiction Prize, an NAACP Image Award, CBC's Canada Reads (twice), a Canadian Screen Award, and for Aminata (the French translation of The Book of Negroes), Le combat des livres de Radio-Canada and Le Prix Folio-Télérama des libraires 2023.

Brad takes a closer look at heat stress in dairy calves and cows. This episode highlights several recent studies on how temperature-humidity index affects calf behavior, lying time, respiration rates, shade use, and growth performance.Brad discusses research from the University of Guelph, The Ohio State University, and Mississippi State showing that heat-stressed calves spend less time lying down, stand more often, breathe harder, and may gain less weight when shade is not provided. He also reviews a Texas A&M study using precision livestock technology to monitor drinking behavior, rumen temperature, and heat stress responses in robotic milking herds.The big takeaway: heat stress in calves deserves more attention. Simple strategies like shade cloth, better ventilation, and more thoughtful housing design may help improve calf comfort, growth, and long-term performance.Questions, comments, scathing rebuttals? -> themoosroom@umn.edu or call 612-624-3610 and leave us a message!Linkedin -> The Moos RoomTwitter -> @UMNmoosroom and @UMNFarmSafetyFacebook -> @UMNDairyYouTube -> UMN Beef and Dairy and UMN Farm Safety and HealthInstagram -> @UMNWCROCDairyExtension WebsiteAgriAmerica Podcast Directory

In her third collection, Nova Scotian poet Jaime Forsythe has created an elegant long poem with Yield (Buckrider Books, 2026). In these dreamlike lines a mother faces the postpartum void from a porous house by the ocean as the veil between land and sea, and between being lost and being found, grows thinner. With repeated waves of couplets Forsythe brings the reader unforgettable images: a pom-pom that hardens into a sea urchin, an underwater dance club, a coast that melts into the sea. Delicately tracing the disorientation and dark edges of new motherhood, this is a collection that embraces beauty and ambiguity with a baby that roots for milk while what's ancient—whether history or memory—floods in. Jaime Forsythe's previous books are I Heard Something (Anvil Press, 2018) and Sympathy Loophole (Mansfield Press, 2012). Her poetry and fiction have appeared in Arc, EVENT, Grain, The Malahat Review, Geist, The Ampersand Review and This Magazine, among others. She holds an MFA in Creative Writing from the University of Guelph and currently lives close to where she grew up in Nova Scotia/Mi'kma'ki. Hollay Ghadery is an Iranian-Canadian multi-genre writer living in Ontario on Anishinaabe land. She has her MFA in Creative Writing from the University of Guelph.

The Assistant Professor of Football: Soccer, Culture, History.
The traditional The Assistant Professor of Football season round-up is back. I asked guests from this past year, and some from previous years whose clubs had remarkable seasons of one sort or the other how their clubs have fared, what moment stands out, and what song best embodies their club's vibe this past season. They are:Medea Voegeli, professional historian and historian of FC Thun, from episode 76. Thun are the utterly sensational champions of Switzerland this year — after just having been promoted — so Medea has a lot of good vibes to share.Then Paul Reidy, our English correspondent at Rayo Vallecano; that club portrait is episode 46. Rayo made it to the final of the best European club competition outside the Champions League, the Conference League. They lost against Crystal Palace, but this is their greatest success.Another finalist: SC Freiburg, from episode 49. Freiburg made it to the Europa League final. They also lost against an English team, Aston Villa. Patrick Bucher from the club's history working group has a lot of stories to tell from his days at the final in Istanbul.Next up is Alana McDougall, a historian at the University of Guelph in Canada who published a fabulous people's history of Liverpool and joined us in episode 72 — she's back to analyze a rather mixed season for them.Then Stefan Wally, a political scientist and Austria Salzburg aficionado, on that club in the second Austrian league. They earned promotion last year and absolutely held their own — including a derby with the Red Bull farm team that tried to finish them off.And last but not least: two teams who got relegated but also see some hope on the horizon, because their relegation has triggered — or at least coincides with — much-needed changes in ownership and leadership at their respective clubs: West Ham and 1860 Munich.West Ham were relegated from the Premier League, as I'm sure you know. That is my club in England, and Alex — who is hard at work organizing supporters for change and for atmosphere at West Ham — gives us his take. And 1860… well, never a dull day there. The Jordanian investor withheld funds, the club was forced to drop out of the third German league, and it looks like that means — freedom, finally, for 1860. Claus Melchior from 1860's section on club history will give us the download.HELPFUL LINKS FOR THIS EPISODE: Dubioza Kolektiv - I am from Bosnia, Take me to America (new music video, YouTube)NEW: send me a text message!

Read the full transcript here. What are the world's leading AI companies actually trying to build when they talk about superintelligence? Is the goal merely better chatbots, or systems that could outperform all humans across every cognitive task? Why would such a system be so alluring if it could accelerate medicine, science, education, abundance, and human flourishing? Why would it also create an unprecedented concentration of power for whoever controlled it? If intelligence includes not only abstract reasoning but persuasion, strategy, manipulation, planning, and technological invention, what happens when those capacities are automated at superhuman scale? How seriously should we take AI CEOs when they say the technology could go catastrophically wrong, and how should we interpret the tension between their public concern and their continued participation in the race? If we cannot reliably inspect their goals, motives, reasoning, or learned objectives, how could we know whether apparent obedience is real safety or just surface behavior? Even if alignment were solved, who should be trusted to steer a superintelligence? Could compute governance, chip tracking, training thresholds, inspections, and a US-China agreement buy time before the frontier moves further? What do nuclear weapons, nuclear power, chemical weapons, and germline engineering teach us about the possibility and limits of technological restraint? Is resignation itself part of the danger, and could a credible movement for coordination make a saner future more possible? averages? And when injustice affects both men and women differently, what framework avoids turning that into a zero-sum argument? Links: MIRI Malo Bourgon leads the Machine Intelligence Research Institute.

The Dirty Thirties might seem like the distant past but according to IDEAS contributor and professor Evan Fraser now is the time to dust off the lessons about what worked to save farmers and agriculture. The confluence of drought, scorching temperatures and terrifying storms was devastating for farm families forced to abandon their land. Fraser argues the Dust Bowl should serve as a warning of compounding crises that lie ahead. But he adds it can also be a guide to solutions that could help us muddle through as the world lurches into another chapter of environmental, political and economic upheaval.Guests in this episode:Evan Fraser is a geography professor and director of Arrell Food Institute at the University of Guelph.Pamela Riney-Kehrberg is a distinguished professor of history at Iowa State University.Robert McLeman is a professor of geography and environmental studies at Wilfrid Laurier University.
