July 08, 2020 Can WHO survive?, The deficit due to COVID-19 & Keeping workers mentally and physically safe
Chapter 1: In lieu of a budget, we’re expecting a financial snapshot from the federal government later this morning, and it’s not going to be pretty.
Guest: Mercedes Stephenson, Global News Ottawa Bureau Chief.
Chapter 2: First it was Brandi’s...now it’s the No. 5 Orange. Yet another Vancouver strip club has been linked to cases of COVID-19. Was allowing strip clubs to reopen a bad idea?
Chapter 3: US President Donald Trump has made it no secret that he’s not happy with the World Health Organization’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic. Well that came to a head yesterday when the United States announced they will officially leave the WHO, in spite of the fact they contribute almost a quarter of the organization's budget.
Guest: Ophelia Michaelides, Manager of the Centre for Global Health at the Dalla Lana School of Public Health at the University of Toronto.
Chapter 4: The Globe and Mail is reporting that federal finance minister Bill Morneau will announce a federal deficit of $300-billion today, so what does that mean?
Guest: David Macdonald, Senior Ottawa Economist with the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives
Chapter 5: We’ve heard these stories anecdotally for months. Frontline health workers who can’t see their parents, their partners, or sometimes even their children. That’s taking a huge toll and health experts are sounding the alarm.
Guest: Fardous Hosseiny, Vice President of Research and Policy at the Centre of Excellence on Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder at the Royal Ottawa Hospital.
Chapter 6: WorkSafeBC has released some of the results of their inspections that are meant to ensure businesses are complying with COVID-19 regulations. It’s an encouraging picture overall, but there’s still a few hundred cases where they reported needing to take some sort of action.
Guest: Al Johnson, head of Prevention Services at WorkSafeBC.
Chapter 7: Modernization by necessity! The province announced the launch of what they’re calling a “BC virtual services card” yesterday,a new way for residents to access government services electronically. From student loans to your Canadian Revenue Agency account, it sounds like there’s going to be a lot you can do online with this new tool. Joining us for more on what this is and how it works, we’re joined by Minister of Citizens’ Service, Anne Kang.
Guest: Anne Kang, Minister of Citizens' Services, NDP MLA for Burnaby-Deer Lake.

July 06, 2020 Incentives to stay on CERB, Drinking in parks & Posting insensitive comments on Social Media
Chapter 1: The Canada Emergency Response Benefit pays people $2,000 a month if they’re out of work because of COVID-19, but it also allows people to earn up to $1,000 a month without losing their eligibility. So this has actually created an incentive for people to avoid earning more than $1,000, and now the government has to figure out an exit strategy.
Guest: Tammy Schirle, Professor of Economics at Wilfred Laurier University.
Chapter 2: Today the Park Board will vote on an alcohol consumption pilot that would allow drinking Vancouver parks this summer. The catch? If passed, it won’t apply to all parks - just 10 select locations around the city.
Guest: Niki Reitmayer
Chapter 3: Several US states reported their highest COVID-19 numbers yet over the weekend, Florida with over 11,000 new cases reported on Saturday, and Texas breaking their record number as well.
Guest: Reggie Cecchini, Global News Washington Correspondent
Chapter 4: That was Colette Gerber with the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver speaking with Jill Bennett. Sales may be up but prices aren’t moving very much, real estate analyst Dane Eitel, the founder of Eitel Insights joins us with his thoughts.
Guest: Dane Eitel, founder of Eitel Insights.
Chapter 5: Prosecutors want Jeffrey Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell in court on Friday. The socialite is facing charges associated with grooming young women to be sexually abused by the billionaire, and the prosecution is concerned she poses a flight risk.
Guest: Paul Viollis, Law Enforcement and Security Analyst with CBS.
Chapter 6: Apparently we’re seeing way more mosquitoes in Metro Vancouver this year, and they’ve called in the cavalry to tackle the problem.
Guest: Shaun Calver, mosquito controller at Morrow Bioscience.
Chapter 7: In this current climate, why would any law enforcement officer think it’s a good idea to make racially insensitive jokes on social media? Yet alas, an RCMP officer in Kamloops posted pictures of himself wearing a charcoal skin-care face mask.
Guest: Chad Haggerty, former RCMP officer (current student at law with a criminal defense firm)
