January 28, 2022 Truck convoy rolls through Hamilton, Canada providing Ukraine with support and extends Op Unifier, Reporting on difficult topics in 2022 & How much more can be done to help the Canadian healthcare system?
The Hamilton Today Podcast with Scott Thompson...
One of CHML's reporters was out and about to see what was going down at the gatherings around Hamilton in support of the convoy as it rolled through Hamilton, what did he see? What is the U.S. perspective on Canada’s vaccine mandate, its affect on the trucking industry, and the convoy? Canada will extend its military training mission in the Ukraine, Operation Unifier, for three years, as well as provide non-lethal equipment, enhanced intelligence sharing and resources to defend against cyber attacks. The trucking convoy has earned a lot of attention in the media – despite what some believe – but it has been a tough balance to strike, covering the news while not riling up extremists and giving some parties exactly the sort of fuel that they want. How do we engage with stories like this in 2022, and what are the biggest challenges? The pandemic has intensified existing troubles with the Canadian healthcare system. We already have a public/private mix but is there more that could be done?

The Hamiton Today Podcast with Scott Thompson...
Dr. Roberta Bondar joins Scott to help commemorate the 30 year anniversary of her becoming Canada's first female astronaut and Earth's first neurologist in space while aboard the American space shuttle Discovery. To discuss the mindset of people in 2022, and how we might need to change our own ways of thinking, we are joined by Dr. Steve Joordens. The multi-talented Marvin Lee Aday, better known as Meat Loaf, died on Thursday at the age of 74. For insights from the perspective of the pharmacists administering vaccinations, we turn to Justin Bates, CEO of the Ontario Pharmacist Association. A memorandum of understanding has been signed by the Federal government and the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation that will see thousands of residential school records turned over to the NCTR. Why have we not been hearing much from the opposition, in terms of Canada’s healthcare system troubles, which have been around for years?

January 22, 2022 Small Business Spotlight on Soupfest 2022, supporting youth and small businesses
Small Business Spotlight… on Soupfest 2022! The annual event is the major fundraiser for Living Rock Youth Centre, a local non-profit in Hamilton. Living Rock has been supporting vulnerable youth since 1985, offering a place of belonging, safety, and a bridge to the community while supporting youth to develop a personal vision for their lives. The funds raised through Soupfest are directed to these programs and resources. This year, each participating restaurant will offer a signature competing soup during their hours of operation, for you to order. A percentage of each soup will support Living Rock and the balance will go to our local restaurants – because they need our support too! The soups will be available by the bowl, litre or both. All the details on the participating restaurants and their hours of operation can be found at www.livingrock.ca.
Guest: Julie Conway, Operations Director Living Rock- Youth Resources
