On today’s show:
The City of Edmonton will be planting 2 million trees over the next eight years, investing more than $100M. Bill C-18 is blurring the media landscape across the country. Facebook started blocking content on its platforms. Local community radios and newspapers could be hit harder than others.  Crime on Vancouver Island is on the rise. Stats Can just published the latest numbers.  And recent research published by the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives shows that Nova Scotians face more isolation when it comes to accessing mental health care. That’s partly because the online model is a barrier for some people.
