Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and if you’re single and still hoping to find love, this might be the perfect moment to rethink how you date.

Recent studies show that dogs may not only respond to our tone of voice, but they can actually associate words with objects, and even anticipate what we mean when we use certain words. Dr. Sophia Skoulikas, a veterinarian at the Liesse Animal Clinic in Dorval, spoke to Andrew Carter.

As more Canadians try to “Buy Canadian” at the grocery store, shoppers are being urged to look a little closer at the fine print. Many food products use maple leaves, patriotic slogans, and phrases like “Canada’s #1 brand” or “Designed in Canada,” even though they’re actually made in the United States ,a practice known as maple-washing. Mike von Massow, a food economist and professor at the University of Guelph who studies food labelling and consumer behaviour, spoke to Andrew Carter.
