While many Canadians are continuing to boycott products made in the United States, when it comes to mikvehs, nearly a dozen Canadian Jewish communities have no qualms about accepting their money. Mikvah USA is a Brooklyn-based charity that gives out financial aid, advice and technical support for renovating outdated mikvehs and building brand-new ones, and in the last few years, they've supported 10 clients in Ontario and Quebec. One of them is Ottawa's Naomi Bulka Community Mikvah, which held its grand reopening on July 20, having completed a makeover of the 25-year-old facility, attached to Ottawa's Soloway ewish Community Centre. While only 30 women have been using the mikveh each month, officials believe they will attract larger crowds who come for the religious experience in a bright, refreshed, spa-like atmosphere. The team in Ottawa received a grant to kickstart independent fundraising from Mikvah USA, which has been subsidizing mikveh projects across North America since 2004, mostly in smaller Jewish communities. The list includes London, Ont.; Quebec City; and a forthcoming mikveh in Saint-Agathe-des-Monts, Que., which is still under construction. On today's episode of The CJN's North Star podcast, host Ellin Bessner is joined by some Canadian mikveh organizers who collaborated with the American charity to get their projects to the finish line: Dina Teitlebaum and her husband, Rabbi Levy Teitlebaum, in Ottawa, and Chana Carlebach and her husband, Rabbi Emanuel Carlebach, who are building the multimillion-dollar mikveh in Saint-Agathe-des-Monts.

The Secular Enlightenment by Professor Margaret C. Jacob, has been called a major new history on how the Enlightenment transformed people's everyday lives. It's a panoramic account of the radical ways that life began to change for ordinary people in the age of Locke, Voltaire, and Rousseau. In this landmark book, familiar Enlightenment figures share places with voices that have remained largely unheard until now, from freethinkers and freemasons to French materialists, anticlerical Catholics, pantheists, pornographers, readers, and travelers. Jacob, one of our most esteemed historians of the Enlightenment, reveals how this newly secular outlook was not a wholesale rejection of Christianity but rather a new mental space in which to encounter the world on its own terms. She takes readers from London and Amsterdam to Berlin, Vienna, Paris, and Naples, drawing on rare archival materials to show how ideas central to the emergence of secular democracy touched all facets of daily life. Human frailties once attributed to sin were now viewed through the lens of the newly conceived social sciences. People entered churches not to pray but to admire the architecture, and some began to spend their Sunday mornings reading a newspaper or even a risqué book. The secular-minded pursued their own temporal and commercial well-being without concern for the life hereafter, regarding their successes as the rewards for their actions and their failures as the result of blind economic forces. A wonderful work of intellectual and cultural history, The Secular Enlightenment demonstrates how secular values and pursuits took hold of eighteenth-century Europe, spilled into the American colonies, and left their lasting imprint on the Western world for generations to come. Margaret Jacob is Distinguished Professor of History at the University of California, Los Angeles. Her many books include The Radical Enlightenment: Pantheists, Freemasons, and Republicans and The First Knowledge Economy: Human Capital and the European Economy, 1750-1850. Carrie Lynn Evans is a PhD student at Université Laval in Quebec City

Dr. Ernesto Morales discusses evidence-based research for accessible airports and airplanes, emphasizing co-design, sensory needs, and the need for accountability in aviation accessibility.In episode 61 of the Happy Space Podcast, I spoke with Dr. Ernesto Morales, Full Professor at Université Laval, about two federally funded projects on accessible aviation in Canada. One focuses on airport accessibility, while the other addresses aircraft lavatories. Ernesto shares how involving 72 participants with diverse disabilities through walking interviews and mockups helped surface nuanced barriers and identify improvements. We also discuss the challenges of coordination between stakeholders, the need for sensory-friendly spaces, and the importance of dignity in travel. Ernesto stresses the value of co-design and inclusive research methods, calling for regulatory clarity and deeper accountability in delivering equitable air travel experiences.Ernesto Morales studied architecture and finished a Masters' Degree in Industrial Design in Mexico City. He obtained a grant from the Government of Mexico to study his Ph.D. in Design at the Faculté de l'aménagement, of the University of Montreal. He did his first post doc in “Environmental Gerontology” at the Research Centre from the Institut universitaire de gériatrie de Montréal and a second post-doc at the Research Centre for Innovation in Health Care at Utrecht, the Netherlands on “Healing Environments”. He is Full Professor at the School of Rehabilitation Sciences of the Faculty of Medicine at the Universté Laval and he is a Researcher at the Centre interdisciplinaire de recherche en réadaptation et intégration sociale in Quebec City. He is also a member of the Quebec government's Advisory Committee on Accessibility and Safety of Buildings for Persons with Disabilities. His research interests fall into the following areas: Inclusive design and adaptation of the physical environment. Design solutions to improve the quality of life of people with permanent or temporary disabilities (either cognitive, motor or sensory) in terms of objects, home spaces or urban design.

Larry Ostola speaks with Patrice Dutil about his book, Ballots and Brawls: The 1867 Canadian General Election. Ballots and Brawls by Patrice Dutil explores Canada's first federal election in 1867, shortly after Confederation. The book vividly recounts the idealistic foundations laid in the 1864 Charlottetown and Quebec City conferences and delves into the chaotic and often violent summer election across Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Ontario, and Quebec. Dutil highlights the key political and social tensions of the time—economic issues, taxation, defence, and cultural divides—while profiling major figures like John A. Macdonald and George-Étienne Cartier. Drawing on archival sources and poll data, the book provides a compelling, detailed look at the birth of Canadian democracy. Patrice Dutil is a professor of politics and public administration at Toronto Metropolitan University and a senior fellow of the Bill Graham Centre for Contemporary International History at the University of Toronto. He is the founder of the Literary Review of Canada and was president of the Champlain Society from 2011 to 2017. He is the author and editor of several books on Canadian politics and governance, including Statesmen, Strategists and Diplomats: Canada's Prime Ministers and the Making of Foreign Policy and The Unexpected Louis St-Laurent: Politics and Policies for a Modern Canada.

In Alfred Hitchcock's 1953 film I Confess, a young priest in Quebec City is suspected of murder because of his unwillingness to break the seal of confession. A major theme of the film is the incomprehension with which the world sees the priesthood, such that people project their own sins onto the priest, resulting in a kind of white martyrdom.

Strategic resource investor Michael Gentile believes junior mining stocks will see a rerate higher as they are “entering the market recognition phase.” He offers a wide range of junior mining stock investing advice and analysis in this discussion with Bill Powers at The Mining Event in Quebec City on June 4th, 2025. From 2003 to 2018 Mr. Gentile worked as a professional money manager at Formula Growth Limited, an independent investment management firm established in Montreal in 1960 with a long-term track record of creating investor wealth. While at Formula Growth his main sector focus was the mining and natural resource sectors. In 2012, Mr. Gentile became the co-manager of the Formula Growth Alpha Fund, a market neutral hedge fund focused on small to mid-cap equities. From 2011 to 2018 the Formula Growth Alpha Fund became one of the largest market neutral funds in Canada, growing its assets under management to over $650 million by the end of 2018. In October 2018, Mr. Gentile retired from full time money management in order to be able to spend more time with his family. Subsequently, he remains a very active investor in the mining space owning significant stakes in several small-cap mining companies and is currently a strategic advisor to Radisson Mining Resources (TSX.V: RDS) and a board member of Roscan Gold Corporation (TSX.V: ROS) and Northern Superior Resources (TSX.V: SUP). 0:00 Introduction 0:24 Michael's roles at conference 2:35 “Market recognition phase” 3:15 Investor advocacy 4:21 Vetting executives 7:53 Reject most junior miners 10:06 Exit strategy 11:33 Lying executives 13:10 Reasonable compensation 14:58 Director selling stock 15:59 Management discount or premium 17:54 Deal entry 19:30 NorthIsle Copper and Gold 22:01 Arizona Metals 23:54 Silver bull market Michael's LinkedIn: https://ca.linkedin.com/in/michael-gentile-01028552 Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Mining Stock Education offers informational content based on available data but it does not constitute investment, tax, or legal advice.

Send us a textLace up your hiking boots and join us as we trek across the breathtaking landscapes of Canada! From the misty coastal paths of British Columbia to the craggy eastern shores of Newfoundland, we're exploring ten of Canada's most spectacular hiking trails that belong on every outdoor enthusiast's bucket list.Our journey begins with the legendary West Coast Trail in BC, where we share insights from friends who conquered this challenging 75km adventure featuring cable cars, ladders, and incredible wildlife viewing opportunities. The trail's lottery system makes it exclusive, but we'll tell you why it's worth trying your luck. We then head east to Alberta's mountain wonderland, exploring both the glacier-studded Berg Lake Trail beneath towering Mount Robson and the ridge-walking paradise of Jasper's Skyline Trail, where snow lingers into June but rewards summer hikers with breathtaking alpine vistas.Not every remarkable Canadian trail requires expert-level skills. We highlight the accessible Plain of Six Glaciers near Lake Louise with its historic tea house, the culturally significant Grey Owl's Cabin Trail in Manitoba, and the moderate Les Loops Trail offering spectacular views near Quebec City. For those seeking true wilderness challenges, we venture into the remote Arctic landscape of Akshayuk Pass in Nunavut, where towering peaks and extreme conditions create an unforgettable 97km adventure available only during the brief summer window. The maritime provinces shine with New Brunswick's Fundy Footpath tracing the world's highest tides and Newfoundland's extensive East Coast Trail showcasing puffin colonies, icebergs, and the easternmost point in North America.Whether you're planning your next backpacking expedition or simply dreaming of Canada's natural wonders, these trails showcase the remarkable diversity of our outdoor playground. Each path offers unique experiences, from wildlife encounters to historical connections like the La Cloche trail that inspired Group of Seven painters. Have you hiked any of these Canadian gems?

16. Join us for a special travel edition of Food with Friends as we head to Montreal & Quebec City for spring break.
Quebec is a crucial battleground in this election, with enough seats to give any party a decisive lead. But with U.S. President Donald Trump's threats and tariffs roiling Canadian politics, some Quebecers only seem sure of what they're voting against, not for. As part of The Current's election series, Crossroads: Coast to Coast with Canadian Voters, Matt Galloway went to Quebec City to talk to voters about the decision they have to make.
Four more listeners make the case for their favourite vacation spots, hoping to win a place on The Current's list of great Canadian travel destinations. Alexandra Esposito tells us why she loves Quebec City; Greer Kelley takes us on a drive from Amherst to Masstown in Nova Scotia; Stef MacDiarmid shares her memories of the Nahanni River in the Northwest Territories; and Dianne Wilson shares what's so special about Grasslands National Park in Saskatchewan. You can see the full shortlist and vote for your favorite on cbc.ca/thecurrent.
