Overhauling Health Care, Laying Strong Foundations For Calgary’s Economic Recovery, Alzheimer’s at Christmas

We begin with a look at Canada’s Health Care System. Has the COVID-19 Pandemic been a lesson in what we truly need for healthcare in our nation, and should we use this as a chance to ‘revamp’ the entire system? We get the thoughts of a Health Care researcher from the School of Public Policy at Queen’s University.

Next, we look at the ‘state’ of Calgary Businesses as we continue to make our way through the Pandemic. We catch up with Deborah Yedlin, President and CEO of the Calgary Chamber, for her thoughts on what it will take for local businesses to recover and what role the Federal Government can and should play when it comes to initiatives for small and medium sized businesses.

Yesterday, the Liberal Government announced a Travel Advisory for Canadians when it comes to International Travel. We speak with Global Calgary Reporter Sarah Offin for details on the announcement, and how travelers at the Calgary International Airport are reacting to the Advisory.

Finally, over the Christmas Holidays we might be getting together with Seniors we haven’t seen in a while. What should we be aware of and what should we watch for? We speak with the Director of Learning and Support Services from the Alzheimer Society of Calgary, for some tips on how to spot early signs of Dementia and what resources are available, here in the city.
