For several years, Irene Deschenes suffered sexual abuse at the hands of a Catholic priest. She joins us along with her lawyer Loretta Merritt to explain how their recent Supreme Court victory paves the way for true justice to be served. The public school board in Red Deer, Alberta will not observe Pride Week; instead, they'll promote a "Diversity Week" this year. We talk to longtime Red Deer school trustee Dianne Macaulay and LGBTQ2S+ advocate Dr. Kristopher Wells about why specific Pride celebrations are important. Emergency department Dr. Shazma Mithani, infectious diseases Dr. Lynora Saxinger, and ICU Dr. Darren Markland provide fact checks following interviews with UCP MLA Drew Barnes and Lt. Col. (Ret.) David Redman last week about easing pandemic restrictions. Yale Law professor, New York Times magazine writer, and Slate Political Gabfest co-host Emily Bazelon checks in from Connecticut to make sense of post-January 6th America, Donald Trump's second impeachment acquittal, and the early stages of Joe Biden's presidency. mCloud Technologies CEO Russ McMeekin explains why they're moving corporate headquarters to Calgary, and where he finds reason for optimism in a strained economy. Plus, we get our week started off on the right foot with another edition of Positive Reflections presented by Kuby Energy!
