Podcasts about Quebec

What if the dream trip starts feeling like a job? We sit down with traveler and author Melissa Rodway to unpack the real highs and lows of a life built on movement—starting with a wild childhood year in Western Australia, a no-guidebook leap through Europe in the 90s, and the pre-smartphone hacks that kept her safe and curious in Costa Rica.The story turns when she quits an advertising job and heads to Southeast Asia for months of motion—Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, and China—where gritty bus rides collide with occasional five-star stays. Melissa shares how travel fatigue sneaks in, why purpose is the antidote, and the moment a seasoned traveler taught her the hardest lesson of the road: know when to go home. Those long rides turned into pages, and pages into The People You Meet, a witty, honest travel book about culture, food, and the human dramas that follow you across borders.Then we switch gears to a slower kind of adventure: five winter weeks in Quebec City during her year off. Daily cross-country laps on the Plains of Abraham, ice skating under big skies, a Nordic spa two minutes from home, and the electric roar of Carnival with its ice canoe races on the St. Lawrence. We dig into the ice hotel, maple syrup snow taffy, tourtière, French schools for all levels, and why Quebec is built for outdoor lovers in every season—plus practical tips on walkability, ferries to Lévis, nearby trails, and affordable stays that make lingering easy.If you're craving travel that's deeper, steadier, and more you, this conversation is your map.Map of Quebec CityYou can find Melissa:On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fly_travel_media/Her website at: https://flyrodway.comMelissa's book: The People You Meet BookSupport the showPlease download, like, subscribe, share a review, and follow us on your favorite podcasts app and connect with us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wherenextpodcast/View all listening options: https://wherenextpodcast.buzzsprout.com/HostsCarol Springer: https://www.instagram.com/carol.work.lifeKristen: https://www.instagram.com/team_wake/ If you can, please support the show or you can buy us a coffee.

Quebec doctors and healthcare providers are weighing their options when it comes to the future of their practice.The province adopted Bill 2 last month, legislation that sets performance targets for healthcare providers with a financial penalty if not met. The bill is in effort to address long wait times for surgery, emergency rooms, specialist consultations, and for the system overall to provide better care to all residents. However, the bill's slash to salaries while simultaneously omitting failures from the Province's responsibility, has doctors and healthcare professionals rethinking their future in medicine in the province. Dozens have already resigned, with several applying to Ontario hospitals instead. Host Maria Kestane speaks to Dr. Trevor Hennessey, Chief of the department of anesthesiology for the Centre intégré de santé et de services sociaux de l'Outaouais to break down what Bill 2 really means for the future of healthcare in Quebec, and how it's more about an infringement on Charter rights than a new payment model for doctors. 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 @thebigstoryfpn on Twitter

Terry Lynch, CEO of Power Metallic Mines (TSX.V: PNPN) (OTCBB: PNPNF) (Frankfurt: IVV), joins us for a comprehensive exploration update from their fully funded 100,000-meter drill program at the polymetallic NISK Project in Quebec.  We discuss some of the key acquisitions made earlier this year expanding the land package around the NISK Project, as well as their new Jabal Baudan claims over in Saudi Arabia.   Key Highlights from the Interview:   Exploration Strategy: A six-rig program focused on expanding the mineralized around the Lion Zone and at depth, the Tiger Zone, new polymetallic targets from surveys, and still drilling to connect the 5.5km corridor between Lion and NISK Main. High Grade Assays From Summer Drilling: 22.66 meters of 4.57% CuEq, including 6.05 meters of 9.70% CuEq in Hole 020 28.0 meters of 4.28% CuEq, including 3.4 meters of 15.45% CuEq in Hole 015 5.35 Meters of 11.97% Cu (16.35% CuEqRec) in Hole 022 Resource Growth Path: Early-stage modeling efforts are enabling analysts and investors to build their own interpretations of scale, while metallurgical studies are underway to confirm high recovery rates. Acquisition of Li-FT Power land:  Back on July 14, 2025 the Company announced that it closed a definitive agreement dated June 9, 2025 to acquire a 100% interest in 313 mineral claims totalling 167 km² from Li-FT Power Ltd. (TSXV: LIFT) (OTCQX: LIFFF). The claims adjoin the Company's 45.86km² Nisk property, where exploration is expanding the high–grade Lion Cu–PGE discovery and the Nisk Copper-Nickel-Platinum-Palladium-Gold-Cobalt deposit.   Terry explains how there are 8 very high priority drill targets that the exploration team is following up on across this newly acquired land. Phase 1 Metallurgical Testing of Lion Deposit:  On Oct. 16th, Power Metallic announced that preliminary metallurgical studies are underway being performed by SGS Canada Ltd at its laboratories based in Quebec City, QC, and Lakefield, ON. Work to date has shown that the copper mineralization is contained within coarse grained chalcopyrite and cubanite, both which should respond well to conventional sulphide concentration methods. Overall, the character of the mineralization suggests good recoveries of copper sulphides, and these initial metallurgical tests will determine the recovery potential of the PGEs, Au, Ag, and Ni., which are expected to report within a conventional sulphide concentrate. Awarded Jabal Baudan Exploration License in Saudi Arabia: Power Metallic announced on June 16th that it was awarded the exploration license for the Jabal Baudan project in Saudi Arabia's Jabal Sayid Mineralized Belt. This historic milestone positions Power Metallic as one of the few foreign companies with mining concessions in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, having secured a successful bid in this prestigious licensing process. Key Strategic Stakeholders:   Terry highlights that there are high profile backers of the company like Robert Friedland, Rob McEwen, The Stern Family, Palos Capital, and also Terry's family that are keeping a large percentage of the shares in strong hands interested in seeing the longer-term expansion of the mineralization for the company.  * In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Power Metallic Mines at the time of this recording and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.    Click here to follow the latest news from Power Metallic Mines   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Canada Immigration IRCC -2025–2027 Immigration Levels Plan, released by on October 24,2025  2025–2027 Immigration Levels Plan  Each year, the Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship tables the Immigration Levels Plan, a forward-looking snapshot of immigration targets for the next three years.  The plan provides permanent resident admissions targets for 2025, with notional commitments for 2026 and 2027. For the first time, we're extending our levels plan to also include targets for temporary residents, taking into account the full scope of all newcomers and helping reduce temporary resident volumes to 5% of Canada's population by the end of 2026.  Development of the levels plan  When developing the Levels Plan, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) considers  priorities and objectives for immigration, including those set out in the Immigration Refugee and Protection Act economic and regional needs international obligations and commitments processing capacity the capacity to settle, integrate and retain newcomers Throughout the year, IRCC engages with a broad range of stakeholders and partners, including provinces and territories, to help inform our plan. IRCC also conducts public opinion research through surveys and focus groups with newcomers, Canadians living in rural areas, Francophones living in communities outside of Quebec, as well as Indigenous Peoples.  Findings from these consultations and public engagement initiatives informed the Immigration Levels Plan and are published in the Levels Consultation Report.  Permanent resident targets  Permanent resident programs include economic streams, family reunification, refugees and protected persons, and humanitarian and compassionate admissions.  This year's levels plan reduces permanent resident targets starting in 2025 and forecasts decreases for the following two years, resulting in a pause in population growth in the short term to achieve well-managed, sustainable growth and economic prosperity for the long term.  The plan  represents an overall decrease of 105,000 admissions in 2025, as compared to projected 2025 levels prioritizes in-Canada applicants and pathways for those already here More than 40% of anticipated permanent resident admissions in 2025 will be from those who are already in Canada as temporary residents. Research has demonstrated that newcomers with in-Canada experience have positive long-term success. These skilled, educated newcomers can continue to support the workforce and economy, without placing additional demands on our social services. Adjustments will be made to our economic immigration streams to prioritize transitions of workers already here to permanent residents and to be responsive to labour market needs—our in-Canada focus. We will put emphasis on our federal economic priorities in programs, including the Canadian experience class and regional immigration programs, to attract workers we need, such as in health care and trades occupations. focuses on economic immigration, with approximately 62% of total permanent resident admissions that will be dedicated to the economic class, in key sectors such as health and trades, by 2027 continues to reunite families and loved ones, including spouses, children, parents and grandparents.

This week, Traci welcomes Laura Tolhoek, founder and principal consultant at Essential HR, where she leads a team delivering clear, results-focused solutions to businesses facing HR challenges across Canada. With her CHRL designation and over 20 years of experience, Laura specializes in helping companies navigate the complex world of Canadian employment law.Laura has built her career guiding managers through high-volume decision-making in fast-paced restaurant, food service, and retail environments. Her expertise becomes critical when US-based companies attempt to expand north of the border using American HR practices—a mistake that can cost tens of thousands in severance.Spoiler alert: That US employment contract you're using in Canada is probably null and void—and that might actually work in the employee's favor.Laura breaks down why expanding into Canada makes strategic sense—from accessing highly educated workers at a 30-35% exchange rate discount to tapping salary ranges significantly lower than US metropolitan areas. You'll also hear the critical legal pitfalls that can turn a cost-saving hire into an expensive nightmare, including the "dependent contractor" classification that's caught countless US companies off guard.What We Cover:– The Target Canada lesson – Why understanding operational and cultural differences before expansion matters, even for America's most successful retailers– Why at-will employment doesn't exist in Canada – Termination without a strong contract can cost months of severance instead of weeks– The contract clause that voids everything – One mention of drug testing invalidates your entire employment agreement– Dependent contractors aren't subcontractors – If someone gets 75%+ of their income from you, courts may deem them an employee with back taxes, vacation, and overtime owed– How to find strong mid-level managers for $60-80K CAD – The salary arbitrage that builds loyalty while expanding your talent pool– Quebec's French-first requirement – Why Montreal expansion means understanding distinct cultural approaches to business– The 18-month parental leave structure – How progressive family leave policies help balance workforce discrimination concerns– Why employees always get the benefit of the doubt – Understanding Canada's employee-first legal system where courts consistently side with workersKey Quote: "You can't get a subcontractor relationship clean in Canada. All is good till it's not. If your subcontractor gets more than 75% of their income from you, they're called a dependent contractor—and then the company says, 'You decide how much you think you owe them and we'll tell you if we think you're right.'" – Laura TolhoekConnect with Laura Tolhoek: Website: essentialhr.ca Instagram: @essentialhr.ca LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/laura-tolhoek/ | https://www.linkedin.com/company/essential-hr-canada/Connect with Traci here: https://linktr.ee/HRTraciDisclaimer: Thoughts, opinions, and statements made on this podcast are not a reflection of the thoughts, opinions, and statements of the Company by whom Traci Chernoff is actively employed.Please note that this episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products or services.

Drilling also outlined a long 87-metre zone of continuous mineralization and identified a new mineralized structure along the Peñoles Fault. With a fully funded 15,000-metre drill program, 25 holes still to report, and a tight share structure, Capitan is positioning Cruz de Plata as a potentially large, high-grade silver system with strong growth potential.1911 Gold (TSX-V: AUMB) 1911 Gold continues to deliver strong near-mine results at its fully permitted True North Gold Project in Manitoba, highlighted by 24.83 g/t gold over 2.60 metres at the San Antonio West zone, plus multiple high-grade hits at the nearby Annex target. These results extend gold mineralization to about 630 metres below surface and add a second emerging zone within the existing mine footprint. With surface drilling complete and two underground drill rigs now active, the company is clearly working toward a potential restart scenario supported by existing mine and mill infrastructure.Renforth Resources (CSE: RFR) Renforth has filed a NI 43-101 technical report for its Malartic Metals Package in Quebec, including the first inferred mineral resource estimate for the Victoria nickel sulphide polymetallic deposit. The report also captures a new copper discovery, gold targets and early lithium results, all within road-accessible ground crossed by a power line in a major mining corridor. This filing moves Renforth's story into a more formal, independently reviewed framework and strengthens its positioning as an emerging critical-minerals player in Canada's energy transition supply chain.Silverco Mining (TSX-V: SICO) Silverco is breathing new life into the past-producing Cusi silver mine in Chihuahua, Mexico, with high-grade drill results from the San Miguel target. Highlights include 8.6 metres grading 250 g/t AgEq and 2.1 metres grading 1,042 g/t AgEq, plus additional hits up to 1,868 g/t AgEq over 1.4 metres. With a 15,000-metre drill program about two-thirds complete, an existing 1,200 tpd mill on site, and the potential to restart operations as early as next year, Silverco is shaping up as a classic high-grade restart opportunity.Follow AGORACOM for more breaking small-cap news, updates, and investor coverage — and don't forget to subscribe to our podcast for in-depth interviews and analysis on these emerging stories!

Dave is joined in studio by chef Alex Kemp, a Quebec-born, Philly-based chef and co-owner of multiple neighborhood restaurants, for a wide-ranging hang about food, restaurants, and questionable late-night decisions. Alex talks about growing up between French and English Canada, separatist grandparents, and how he and his wife juggle two restaurants, a third on the way, and a nine-and-a-half-month-old.The crew ranks fried foods (why french fries and perfect fried chicken rule, and why tempura and hand-pulled noodles might be overrated), gets specific about schnitzel, fish and chips, fried okra, shrimp, and ketchup loyalty, and admits that Heinz is untouchable. They detour into hot dogs, pears as the heartbreak fruit, heritage apples, apple butter, and Pennsylvania Dutch cooking.A caller from Dublin asks about lobster bisque: how long to cook shells, why over-extraction goes chalky, fortifying stocks in short passes, using gelatin, and whether enzymes like chitinase are worth the trouble. Dublin also brings “spice bags” and proper Guinness into the conversation. Jack checks in with a North Korean restaurant story and the table debates whale, monkey, and one-and-done Guinness's.Dave and Alex close on old-school French technique, why real seasonal menus are a logistical nightmare, and the pleasure and pain of running truly market-driven neighborhood restaurants.
