Listen "Implementing the Right to Disconnect, Impacts of a Poor Diet, and Details on the So-Called ‘Enhanced Games'"

Episode Synopsis

The company you work for provides you with a work phone. Great right? But does this mean you are always on-call and reachable by your employer? What about work-life balance? We hear details on how the 2024 Federal Budget is proposing new “Right to Disconnect” legislation for Federally regulated industries. We discuss the potential impact of the legislation with Professor Nita Chhinzer from the University of Guelph.
 
Could a ‘poor diet’ increase your risk of certain types of Cancer? Well, according to a new study, that just may be the case. We dig into the research with Dr. Ted Jablonski, our “on-call” family physician.

What if we threw the rule book out and allowed top athletes to use performance enhancing drugs in competitions? The so-called ‘Enhanced Games' could be coming to reality as early as next year. We get details on the concept from Christina Smith, Former Olympian and Athlete Relations Representative for ‘The Enhanced Games’.
