Listen "The UCP's proposed "Alberta Bill of Rights," Grocery Store Prices, and COVID Vaccine Update"

Episode Synopsis

What exactly is the so-called “Alberta Bill of Rights” proposed by Premier Danielle Smith and the UCP Government? How would the legislation impact Albertans? We get the thoughts of Lori Williams, Political Scientist at Mount Royal University.

Next, the inflation rate ‘cooled’ back down to two-percent last month. But are we seeing this reflected on prices at the grocery store? We ‘dig-in’ to the topic with Sylvain Charlebois, Director of the Agri-Food Analytics Lab at Dalhousie University.

Finally, like it or not, ‘COVID’ is still a ‘thing’. And with colder weather coming soon, and more time being spent indoors, should you consider getting a COVID ‘booster’ shot this Fall? We get the thoughts of Dr. Craig Jenne, Infectious Disease Specialist from the University of Calgary.
