Join me as I chat with Lawyer and former Liberal MP Kent Hehr about why we need to keep an open mind for what our future has in store rather than cling to the past.

Kent Hehr is a former federal Liberal cabinet minister and member of parliament for Calgary Centre. As a so-called "recovering politician" with careers on both the federal and provincial levels, Kent has a lot to say about what on earth is going on -- but he’s also got an incredible story. In October 1991 he was with some friends in Calgary when someone in another car opened fire. The bullet went into Kent’s spine, and just like that, he was paralyzed from the chest down as a C5 quadriplegic. About the Guest As a former cabinet minister, Kent has been at the table when big decisions are made. His understanding of how government works and what decision makers are looking for is invaluable for businesses and not-for-profit organizations looking for results. He recently started his own firm with two other partners, Jessie Chahal and Robbie Schuett: HSC and Associates. Kent has over 20 years of comprehensive experience in civic, provincial and federal government work. Kent has an extensive background in dealing with complex problems, systems, and policies. He has a proven track record of managing divergent stakeholders’ interests, collaborating with federal government departments, intergovernmental relations, and chairing committees. Prior to his entry into public service, Kent was a practising lawyer with the prestigious national law firm Fraser Milner Casgrain (now Dentons). Kent has a long history of serving on not-for-profit boards. He is currently on the board of the Cerebral Palsy Association of Alberta. He is married to Deanna Holt.

Welcome to the 163rd episode of the DeanBlundell.com Podcast with Graham Kritzer. The Liberals won the election last night and have received a minority government. The boys go over the voting landscape and how this will affect the political landscape. Dean believes Canada chose blackface over homophobia, period. Dean discusses Kent Hehr who lost in a landslide in Alberta. Kent has been accused of sexual misconduct on many occasions and we are glad he's out. Women in parliament rejoice. We discuss Paul Rudd's new show “Living with Yourself”. It's amazing, we suggest you watch it. We pose the question, would you clone yourself? Dean also hates in relationships how you can't advance in a show you and your spouse are both watching. The Leafs blew another lead last night and now have a back-to-back against Boston at TD Garden! Good times ahead! Speaking of good times, the Toronto Raptors will raise their championship banner at Scotiabank Arena tonight. Everyone in attendance will get a free replica ring. Dean believes they will be back in the finals. We close with a cure for IBS, poop donors getting paid 500$ per poop and the miracle of life video. Enjoy!

What does it mean to be an introvert, and is it harder in our society to keep to oneself? Is there a pressure to conform to an Extrovert Ideal? How do introverts assert themselves in education, the workplace and daily life without giving up what makes them unique, thoughtful -- and just them? Ben brings back Jody MacPherson (Episode 11) to talk about "Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking" by Susan Cain. About the Book The book that started the Quiet Revolution At least one-third of the people we know are introverts. They are the ones who prefer listening to speaking; who innovate and create but dislike self-promotion; who favor working on their own over working in teams. It is to introverts—Rosa Parks, Chopin, Dr. Seuss, Steve Wozniak—that we owe many of the great contributions to society. In Quiet, Susan Cain argues that we dramatically undervalue introverts and shows how much we lose in doing so. She charts the rise of the Extrovert Ideal throughout the twentieth century and explores how deeply it has come to permeate our culture. She also introduces us to successful introverts—from a witty, high-octane public speaker who recharges in solitude after his talks, to a record-breaking salesman who quietly taps into the power of questions. Passionately argued, superbly researched, and filled with indelible stories of real people, Quiet has the power to permanently change how we see introverts and, equally important, how they see themselves. About the Guest Check out Jody on social media: http://about.me/jodymacpherson Jody MacPherson is an Accredited Business Communicator (ABC) with 20+ years of experience in corporate communications and public relations. Graduated from Carleton University in Ottawa, Jody spent her teenage years in Fort McMurray working for the local weekly newspaper and radio stations throughout high school as a columnist and on-air reporter. She paid for university, by literally going underground at Syncrude Canada, working in the extraction plant of the oil sands operation in the 80’s, working as the only woman on her shift, logging hours in the underground portion of the mining operation, cleaning up spills and collecting lab samples. After graduation, Jody stayed in the north to work as a journalist but soon made the leap to public relations in 1986 where she wrote and edited employee publications (and co-authored a book) for several years in Fort McMurray before moving to Edmonton. As community relations team leader, Jody managed donations programs and organized community relations activities across the province, including a $1 million community investment program in Calgary. She went on to receive an international award of excellence for work in employee communications. Formed her own communications consulting company and for the next six years specialized in stakeholder consultation (including cross-cultural communication), employee communication, website content and writing/editing for numerous clients. Beginning in 2005, Jody switched to full-time employment in the public sector in various leadership roles including director of communications and media relations for the University of Calgary’s Faculty of Medicine. Left the U of C in July of 2010 to pursue political interests, including volunteer positions as the former VP of Communications for the Alberta Liberal Party (2008-2010) and as communications/media chair for Kent Hehr’s successful election as Member of Parliament in Calgary Centre in 2015 (Mr. Hehr was also appointed to the federal Liberal cabinet as Minister of Veterans Affairs). After the last municipal election, Jody left a position with a local non-profit organization to supervise a team for the City of Calgary in digital/web communications and social media.

Alex is joined by Kristin Raworth, Alberta civil servant and one of Hehr's accusers, to discuss the fact that after a year-and-a-half of bringing sexual harassment allegations against the Calgary Centre representative forward, the conclusive results of a third-party investigation have never been released. Raworth, alongside a second accuser, are willing to waive privacy in order to see the results, as a means of closure. 

Kent Hehr's accusers say they're ready to forego privacy in exchange for laying eyes on findings of a third-party investigation into the Calgary Centre representative's conduct. Kristin Raworth, Alberta civil servant and one of Hehr's accusers joins the show.

Le libéral Kent Hehr et le néo-démocrate Erin Weir ont été la cible d’allégations et font l'objet d'enquêtes. Le Parti conservateur, lui, retournera dans son passé pour tenter de comprendre comment un député a pu se présenter en 2015 malgré des allégations d’agression sexuelle qui pesaient contre lui. Les partis politiques s’interrogent sur la façon de mieux gérer ces situations complexes et les parlementaires se demandent à micro fermé qui seront les prochains. D'ailleurs, les députés ont adopté cette semaine une motion unanime pour envoyer un projet de loi sur le harcèlement au travail directement en comité parlementaire. Portrait aussi des enjeux qui marqueront les cinq prochains mois de travaux parlementaires, les derniers avant d’amorcer une année préélectorale. Avec Philippe-Vincent Foisy (animateur), Fannie Olivier, Louis Blouin et Raphael Bouvier-Auclair (journalistes)

SACPA and the Lethbridge Public Library present a special evening session of the Southern Alberta Council on Public Affairs on Tuesday Feb 5, 2013 from 7-9pm MLA for Calgary-Buffalo Kent Hehr presented a Private Member's Bill in November 2012 that called on the Alberta government to eliminate public funding for private schools. Alberta is one of only five provinces that subsidizes private students. Furthermore, Alberta provides 70% funding to private schools, the richest subsidy to private schools in the country. Hehr has said that the $130 million set aside to support private schools in the 2012-13 budget is desperately needed in the public school system to implement programs like full day kindergarten and a school lunch initiative. Defendants of private schools have argued that private schools offer educational choices not available in the public system but Hehr counters that he is not calling for an abolition of private schools but the public funding for them: "I believe our public school system is an excellent place for kids to learn," he said. "If people do not want to take part in the public school system, that is their right. But it's not a corresponding right for the taxpayers to fund that choice for a religious or cultural option." Speaker: Kent Hehr Kent Hehr has served as MLA for Calgary-Buffalo since 2008. Born and educated in Calgary, Kent Hehr is a proud Albertan with many ties to his hometown. He was named Graduate of the Decade by the University of Calgary Alumni Association.
