What do an Alberta online university, a union grievance and a parent being faced with the choice of abandoning their child or amputating their child's legs have in common? In 7 years of doing interviews, this is easily one of the most bonkers ones we have ever done! We sit down with Dave Powell of the Athabasca University Faculty Association to make sense of their recent post https://aufa.ca/blog/2026/7/23/athabasca-university-forces-professor-to-choose-between-her-job-her-family-or-her-childs-legs and explain what in the heck is even happening! If you want to write a letter to Athabasca to ask them to stop the threats to fire her, you can do that with this link here: https://win.newmode.net/canadianassociationofuniversityteachers/callonathabascatoreinstatedrgrafandlethergetthebestcareforherson To get tickets to our August 29th live show in Calgary, visit www.thebreakdownablive.ca !

For almost two years, Recovery and Rehabilitation Advocate Guy Felicella has been the subject of an online campaign surrounding a criminal case from three decades ago. It started with some very heavy handed questions from a National Post opinion writer and has only escalataed in that time. In this Breakdown exclusive, we sit down with Guy for a sit down where he tells his side of the story for the first time from start to finish. But the conversation doesn't stop there, because this extremely unnecessary situation forces some very real questions about how society, and especially those involved in anti-harm reduction work, treat recovery and rehabilitation. We have also published a companion piece on our substack that it well worth the time to read! To get tickets to our August 29th live show in Calgary, visit www.thebreakdownablive.ca !
