Many of us have moments in the summer when we can be carefree - take a week or two off work, have a vacation. But, most caregivers don't have this opportunity, which can lead to feelings of depression and frustration around constant routines and responsibilities. There are, however, ways to alleviate this stress and to get some help as well as much needed relief.

On today's Fight Back Strategy Panel, Canada's federal party leaders have been wasting no time on the Campaign road during the Canada Day weekend. Conservative leader Andrew Scheer and Ontario Premier Doug Ford both showed up at the Etobicoke Rib Fest yesterday. They did not, however, appear side by side. Also, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau broadcasted a statement during Canada Day. What do we make of electioneering on Canada Day?

Canada Day is a reminder of the things we are blessed with in this country. One of the top things for many people is the wide open spaces, nature and our parks. For many people, reconnecting with nature is just too difficult. Since 2010, a program called Parkbus has been helping Canadians get outside and share in the beauty of our parks. For many, it’s proved invaluable as they would otherwise not be able to see our parks. Bob Komsic speaks with Parkbus founder Alex Berlyand.
