SA - Louise Johnson, WW2 Bomb Maker From Saskatchewan - Nov 8 by CJME/CKOM

Jody Salway, who served with the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry from 2004 to 2012 including a tour of duty in Afghanistan, says it's time for us to re-think PTSD. Salway, who says he developed PTSD after he was injured by friendly fire when an American pilot accidentally dropped a 500-pound bomb on Canadian troops. Salway says he wants people to understand how PTSD is misunderstood, as TV can make people assume PTSD leads to violent outbursts. He says PTSD should be treated like an injury, with the expectation that it will improve and heal over time. Salway joins Gormley now to discuss his wartime experience and why he'd like to see more people listening to PTSD sufferers.

Andrew Scheer's position is safe as Conservative leader after MPs voted this week against reforming the leadership process, which would have given themselves the power to boot out the leader, but his leadership will face a confidence test in April during the CPC's biannual convention. Despite making gains for the party in the October election, many were disappointed that Scheer failed to overthrow the Trudeau Liberals, and a recent poll showed 42% of Tory voters feel he should step down. We want to know what you think, so it's time for one of Gormley's patented (and highly scientific) Reality Checks! Call in at 1-877-332-8255 and let us know what you think - should he stay or should he go?
