Chapter 8:
-BC leads the country in having the highest rate of working poverty. A $15/hr minimum wage will mean a raise for 400,000 workers across BC who are working for less than that. But does this wage increase go far enough to lift the levels of poverty in BC?
Chapter 9:
-The 2018 Winter Olympics are finally here! The opening ceremonies for the Pyeongchang 2018 Games began at 3am this morning (although some events started on Thursday). To celebrate the launch of this Olympics, Jason Beck - Curator of the BC Hall of Fame - has joined us to discuss what you can see in the Hall’s Olympic collection, as well as to share the stories of some memorable BC Olympic athletes.
Chapter 10:
-We’ve been discussing the Pipeline vs Grapevine dispute over the past couple of days and John Daly joins the show to tease his program “Back on the Beat”, and they will delve further into the issue.
Chapter 11:
-In this day and age is it still appropriate to date someone in your office? We've heard a lot about harrassment in the workplace in recent months and thanks to the #metoo movement and high profile cases, some are looking at taking a zero tolerance toward being "friendly" in the workplace. Google and Facebook have a new policy that states you can ask out a co-worker once, and if they turn you down, move on. Anything past that is considered harassment. What do you think about this policy?
