Nicole O'Byrne talks to Greg Marquis about his book, Canada's State Police: 150 years of the RCMP. Stripping away the myth of the RCMP, historian Greg Marquis offers an account of 150 years of a state police force acting on behalf of the wealthy and powerful. From its start policing Indigenous people in western Canada, the RCMP has gone on to surveil, harass and seek to jail labour organizers, leftist idealists, Quebec sovereigntists and now environmental activists. The RCMP has often made itself judge, jury, and executioner of who can live unmolested in Canada. Drawing upon all the available literature on the organization's history, historian Greg Marquis lays bare 150 years of state police action. He highlights the force's racism, sexism, misogyny, and internal dysfunctions. An invaluable resource, this book challenges the carefully constructed myths about the RCMP's role in Canadian life. Greg Marquis is a historian at the University of New Brunswick. He specializes in Canadian history and criminal justice theory. He has developed a number of courses in the area of law and society, and is on the editorial board of Acadiensis. He is the author of multiple books including, The Vigilant Eye: Policing Canada from 1867-9/11, Truth & Honour: The Death of Richard Oland and the Trial of Dennis Oland, and John Lennon, Yoko Ono and the Year That Canada Was Cool.

Lisa McCully is being remembered by the community as a loving mother, teacher, and friend.

In Episode 19, Chey and Pav talk about the benefit of using Textbooks in the classroom. They begin the episode by talking about the different ways that they use textbooks in the classroom. They discuss how teachers have evolved and have moved away from being heavily reliant on them. Technology has helped cause this shift away from using textbooks, but also the stigma and judgement that is attached to using textbooks in the classrooms. Teachers are hesitant to admit that they find value in textbooks because it has become "unsexy" to use them in classroom teaching. However, as Chey and Pav note during this episode, there is much value to be gained from many textbooks. There is a place for textbooks in the classroom, and teachers should feel comfortable with saying they find value in utilizing them to their fullest potential in the classroom. Textbooks are written by very credible authors, and the publishing process is a rigorous one that goes through a deep vetting process, and therefore, the content is generally very well thought out and valid. Chey and Pav talk about how teaching and learning websites dedicated to particular subject areas, such as math, have become much more commonplace in the school setting. However, issues such as equitable access to technology are big issues in schools. Therefore, it is very important to consider textbooks for foundational work in subject areas, to use to springboard and amplify particular learning tasks, and to gain ideas from when it comes to developing deeper lessons. For their "3 Enlightened Minutes" Segment, Chey and Pav introduce Melissa Wright, a High School Math teacher from Quispamsis, New Brunswick, Canada. Melissa talks about School Culture and Climate - and making sure that Students and Teachers are getting the best possible learning experience. Her info is provided at the bottom of the details. Chey and Pav wrap up by talking about some of their text book experiences in the classroom.
