Episode 7 touches on reaction to previous episodes and columns, and has information about an upcoming 3 day seminar.

Part 1 - We received a personal remembrance about our friend Peter Young from Marylene Vestergom, a former luge competitor who has provided television coverage of four Olympics.

Peter helped her at the start of her broadcast career and she wrote about how "Peter’s passing just days before another Winter Olympics has brought those Sarajevo memories back with such clarity." You'll hear her tribute to him.

12.18 Part 2- "Bridges for Peace has truly been a great friend and supporter of both Jews and Israel over the years," wrote Bill Narvey in his email about their upcoming seminar, Israel’s Battle for Truth .

It's being held Feb. 25-28th and features informedand expert speakers such as Itamar Marcus, the director of Palestinian Media Watch. The sessions deal with historical and current truths, facts and realities about Israel and the existential challenges and threats Jews and Israel continue to face.

21.00 Part 3- Our two latest columns in the Winnipeg Sun garnered a lot of comment and reaction. They were:

Feb. 8- Ashdown Market shutdown reflects city’s disarray

Feb. 15 - The reluctant acceptance of Louis Riel Day by the NDP

You'll hear a recap of those columns - including a terse email that Point Douglas Councillor Vivian Santos received about failing to address crime from homeless encampments in the East Exchange. There are underlying issues with the way legacy media fails to cover these kinds of stories accurately.
