THE MEDICAL RECORD:  HOW DOCTORS COMMUNICATE CANCER DIAGNOSES TO PATIENTS 

Libby Znaimer is joined by Dr. Aaron Schimmer, the Director of Research at the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre as well as a staff physician and a senior scientist and Dr. Fahad Razak, Canada Research Chair in Data Informed Healthcare Improvement at the University of Toronto and a general internist at a Toronto hospital, as well as Dr. Alisa Naiman, a family doctor practicing comprehensive primary care in Toronto.

Today: a conversation about how doctors communicate cancer diagnoses to their patients. We also explore ways to keep cool during the heat waves this summer.

THE NUMBER OF INDIVIDUALS CHARGED WITH HOMICIDE WHILE ON BAIL

Libby Znaimer is now joined by Frank Caputo, a Conservative MP for Kamloops—Thompson—Cariboo, followed by Kim Schofield, Criminal Defense Lawyer with Kim Schofield & Associates.

Just how many individuals have been charged for homicide while out on bail or some other form of release? It was a question Conservative Deputy Leader Melissa Lantsman posed to the government and was brought to light in a column by the Toronto Sun's Brian Lilley.

THE TARNISHED LEGACY OF ALICE MUNRO

Libby Znaimer is now joined by Stephen Marche, a Canadian novelist and essayist.

She was one of Canada's iconic and celebrated short story writers and was even awarded a Nobel prize. Now, the legacy of the late Alice Munro is tarnished: this past Sunday, a bombshell story written by her very own daughter, Andrea Robin Skinner, and published in the Toronto Star detailed her experience of being sexually assaulted by her stepfather. When she told her mother Alice about it, she did nothing. Stephen reacts to the latest.
