The St. John's Morning Show from CBC Radio Nfld. and Labrador (Highlights)
Scott Housell turned to the province's Public Trustee to handle his sister's estate. He says after months of struggling to reach the trustee, he found out she'd been cremated. He spoke with the CBC's Mark Quinn about what happened.
Episode 34 focuses on the shooting by police last weekend of a violent repeat offender, who should never have been allowed to wander Winnipeg streets because of his diminished capacity to function in society. Part 1- An email from a new listener came along with their donation to the Season 5 Funding Drive. You'll hear his messaqe to other listeners and readers about our work. Then, Transcona Coun. Russ Wyatt sent a letter to the Sun going scorched earth on those responsible for the "epidemic" disorder and violence faced by Transit drivers and riders- the "liberal/white-wine socialists we have on council" who don't take "entitled law-breakers seriously." He maintains skipped fares could amount to $10M a year. Marty discusses his Sun story about EK Councillor Jason Schreyer's safety meeting last Monday, the ATU safety rally at City Hall on Tuesday, and why Mayor Gillingham's idea of a solution- more Community Safety Officers - falls far short of what's needed to restore trust in taking a bus. A lot of the problems we face now were created by former Mayor Brian Bowman, who put his political ambitions ahead of public safety. Thanks to our supporters, funding for Season 5 has exceeded 80%. We have only $1035 to go to meet the target. Please go to the Donate page on ActionLine.ca to contribute today and support public affairs coverage in Winnipeg! 20.40 Part 2 - Jordan Charlie was a 24 year old Inuk man from Taloyoak, Nunavut who was incapable of controlling himself, born into a bad situation with FASD, chronic mental health conditions and low cognitive function. He was sentenced to 4 1/2 years after stabbing a victim in the throat while stealing his pot, then battering a corrections officer. Sent to Stony Mountain Penitentiary, Charlie severely wounded himself repeatedly, sustaining brain damage. He was released from prison in January. Stuck in Winnipeg and homeless because somehow, the judges and Crown couldn't be bothered to figure out how to arrange for him to go back to Nunavut as he wanted, Charlie used a weapon to slash a security guard at HSC, was found with a concealed saw on a Transit bus downtown, and breached probation when apprehended on a bike with a kitchen knife in West Kildonan. All by the end of July. He was released with time served and a meaningless supervised probation by provincial court Judge Don Slough on November 19. Five days later, he was shot dead after (allegedly) stabbing a cop in the throat and as seen in bystander video, refusing to drop his weapon and walking out of a bus shack towards two officers at the Unicity plaza. We ask why a violent man diagnosed with oppositional defiant disorder - Recurrent patterns of negative, hostile, or defiant behavior towards authority figures - wasn't detained for the safety of everyone in Winnipeg, while the details of getting him home were worked out by the Public Trustee. Jordan Charlie's death isn't "society's fault"- this blame is on the judge who didn't make sure he was taken care of and on the Crown who failed to ensure the public in Winnipeg was protected from him.

The Bill was passed in 2022- but hasn't been proclaimed. We spoke to the Singer family after Bradley was killed when police stormed his Magnus Avenue home, and we have no doubt the investigation is being hindered by the delay in strengthening the IIU operations. https://actionline.ca/2024/04/april-24-2024-family-gets-ambulance-and-clean-up-bills-but-no-answers-after-cop-shooting/ See also- Charge 'em: The Magnus Avenue Shooting by Cops

A rouges' gallery of thieves, thugs, gang-bangers and zonked-out zombies are running roughshod on Winnipeg streets. But among the subsets of violent criminals intimidating peaceful and defenceless residents and businesses, is a grouping that elected officials and the experts chosen by the media refuse to speak of, or ask questions about. In Episode 26, you will hear a sampling of the muggings and mayhem Winnipeggers are enduring. Pay special attention to these numbers- 12, 14 (twice), 15, 16, 17, 19. Those are the ages included in the latest round of accused goons. Teenagers - especially under the age of majority - and actual 'youths' not yet teenaged but just as violent and remorseless. Armed with machetes, knives, bearspray, and a shotgun, in the last ten days the unprovoked mayhem spread far beyond the Main Street strip and Point Douglas where police chief Danny Smyth wants the public to focus on. Not all involved are under 20, and they get special attention in this podcast too, as Marty describes the reports- from St. Vital and St. Boniface in particular- as bus stop users, cashiers and other teens were targetted and traumatized. ** Support our independent citizen journalism via paypal.com/paypalme/MartyGoldMedia ** No one ever talks about who is responsible for these kids - are there parents involved, CFS, the Public Trustee? Why is the community made to suffer for the failures of child welfare workers, Danny Smyth, and the courts? TGCTS will keep demanding accountability and speaking out for the victims- many of them also youths, and senior citizens- and the ripple effect on morale in the community. Marty also previews some upcoming stories: Thanks to the unwarranted media attacks on Coun. Jeff Browaty, our 2019 investigation into free needle programs will recap the facts the 'public health experts' can't cover-up with name-calling; More Bike Lane Battles coming to St. Boniface, with Provencher Blvd. next on the bike lobby list - we continue to stand up for the small businesses, residents and employees in the St. Boniface Hospital district being screwed over by the biased planning process that cut them out; Ramped-up Provincial election coverage, and contrary to the 'professional journalists at work', we will explain why the amazing comeback victory of Danielle Smith in the Alberta election does indeed have resonance in the Manitoba race. ** To Sponsor or Advertise, for Public Speaking, and for more information on the CWE wrestling events: martygoldlive@gmail.com TGCTS provides institutional memory, decades of experience in the field, roots in the history of the community, and investigative skills to help ensure balance in the public square.

This week on Facing the Future we got a thorough briefing on the latest Social Security and Medicare Trustees' Report from Dr. Charles Blahous, a former Public Trustee of the two programs and now Senior Research Strategist at the Mercatus Center at George Mason University. Concord Coalition Chief Economist Steve Robinson joined the conversation.With Congress considering major new spending plans, and trying to figure out how to pay for it all, the annual report of Social Security and Medicare trustees was released on August 31. It was a timely reminder that Congress still hasn't figured out how to pay for some of the big programs we already have.

The State Government based offices of Public Trustee and Guardian can take over various levels of decision making for people who have diminished capacity - but this may not be the best outcome. The best outcome is to repair the family dysfunction.
This week Radio COTA dives deep into the very important topic of ‘Enduring Powers of Attorney’ .. In this Special Focus Feature, we discuss … • The importance of making an informed choice about an EPA, implications of not having one and assuming family can act for you. • The difference between a will (and other documents) and an EPA. • The importance of choosing the right people/ person, it’s about someone you trust to make the decisions you would want them to make; important not to just default to spouse or kids but really think about who has the right skills and knows what you would want. • The importance of having conversations with people about your values and wishes. • The importance of reviewing an existing EPA. We hear Margaret Greig , David Peace, Judith Chapman, Phil Page and Libby Knight, (some of the wonderful Peer Educators at COTA Qld), share with us the information older Queenslanders have found valuable in regard to Enduring Powers of Attorney .. Later in the show, we go one-on-one with Clinton Miles - Director, Disability Services with The Public Trustee, Queensland to discover the important role the Public Trustee plays in the Enduring Powers of Attorney process ..

When looking for a potential fix and flip property in Denver, you’ve got to be creative. This is a tough market, so you’ve got to explore every opportunity in looking for a deal.Want to sell your home? Get a FREE home value report. Want to buy a home? Search all homes for sale.We’ve got three different strategies to share with you today about how you can find a property out there with instant equity. In today’s market, it can be tough to find a home with equity that is listed. Here are three ways you can find a home to fix, flip, and make some money off of.1. Purchasing a property at a Public Trustee sale. If you’re purchasing a property at one of these sales, you have an opportunity to bid on the property directly. The opening bid will be set, then you have two days to do your due diligence and place your bid on the property at the Public Trustee's office. This can be a risky scenario, so you should look out to make sure you are buying a home that has a clean title.2. Purchasing a property at a pre-foreclosure. Pre-foreclosures happen when a lender is made aware that a home is going to likely be forced into foreclosure. You can prospect for these properties by either door knocking or cold calling. We have some other great tips for doing this as well.“Find homes that meet your parameters by searching online. ”3. Cold call a neighborhood. Find homes that meet your parameters by searching online for homes in a certain area that owe a certain amount in mortgage payments. You can get pretty detailed with the demographics and parameters you want to target in our system.If you’re seriously interested in fixing and flipping a property, the most important thing to do is find a property with equity.

Listen NowIn 2009, or the year before the Affordable Care Act passed, the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (used by the FTC and the DoJ) defined hospital ownership as "highly concentrated" in over 80% of the 380 MSAs (Metropolitan Statistical Areas). Since passage of the ACA, a law that among other things strongly encourages care continuity and coordination between/among providers, hospital mergers and acquisitions continued unabated with over 100 in the past year alone (and over 500 between 2007 and 2012). This matters because studies commissioned by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and others show hospital market consolidation generally results in higher prices. During this 27-minute podcast, Dr. Ginsburg discusses the current state of hospital market concentration and what effect this has on hospital pricing and quality. He describes the impetus for the ACA encouraging care integration, what effect this has on hospital as well as physician group practice consolidation (both horizontally and vertically), what upsides there are to a less silo-ed industry, effects of similar consolidation within the payer/insurance industry and what are or should be appropriate federal efforts to best regulate mergers and acquisitions within the healthcare industry. Dr. Paul Ginsburg is President (and Founder) of the Center for Studying Health System Change (HSC). The HSC conducts research to inform policymakers and other audiences about changes inorganization, financing and the delivery of health care. Prior to HSC Dr. Ginsburg served as the founding Executive Director of the Physician Payment Review Commission (now the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission). Dr. Ginsburg was a Senior Economist at RAND and served as Deputy Assistant Director at the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). Before that he served on the faculties of Duke and Michigan State universities. He has been named to Modern Healthcare's “100 Most Influential Persons in Health Care” eight times. He is founding member of the National Academy of Social Insurance, a Public Trustee of the American Academy of Ophthalmology and serves on Health Affairs' editorial board. He earned his doctorate in economics from Harvard University. This is a public episode.
