Listen "CPS Response to Campus Protests, Promising ALS Research, Dining Out vs. Inflation"

Episode Synopsis

Calgary Police were front and center last week when called in to remove the encampment of pro-Palestine protesters from the University of Calgary, but was the Police response warranted and how do we balance safety with the right to protest? We discuss with Calgary Police Chief Mark Neufeld.
 
Approximately one-thousand Canadians are diagnosed with the ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease every year, and most die within two to five years of diagnosis. But new promising research could lead to a reduction in symptoms of ALS. We get details on the study from Doctor Chantelle Sephton, Associate professor, Faculty of Medicine from the University of Laval.
 
Inflation is changing the way we eat, particularly when it comes to dining out at restaurants. What can be done to combat rising menu prices and entice Calgarians to spend money at local restaurants? We tackle the topic with Brittain Brown, President of President of ‘Givex’.
