Episode Synopsis

Earlier this week several city councilors brought forward a motion that could see $23M cut from this year’s budget - in an effort to lower the proposed property tax rate. We get details on the proposal from Calgary Mayor Jyoti Gondek. 
January 27th is “Holocaust Remembrance Day.” Seeing has it’s been almost 80 years since the end of World War II – how can we continue to effectively educate young people on the atrocities committed by the Nazis? We discuss the efforts being made to keep these important stories alive with Michael Levitt, President and CEO of the Simon Wiesenthal Center for Holocaust. 
Finally, looking for some family fun? “Calgary's Child Magazine” is out with their annual “YYCFAMILIES Resource Guide”! We get details on this special edition of the magazine from Editor Ellen Percival.
