Domestic violence app, Hong Kong protests, university student scams and attack of the aphids
Description
We begin with the latest effort by Calgary police to battle what’s described as a domestic violence epidemic. CPS has created an app to get immediate help if you are a victim or someone you know is in trouble.
We have an update from Hong Kong and this interview will open your eyes to the level of fear felt by those in the democracy movement. A woman who wanted us to identify her only as ‘Jen’ says you can be arrested for doing a simple phone interview on what’s going on there.
We’ve got a couple interviews aimed at post-secondary students. Shawna-Kay Thomas from the Better Business Bureau outlines the 6 scams students need to watch out for as they head back to school and Rachelle McGrath from Mount Royal University looks at the Freshman 15 myth. Do many first time students really pack on an extra 15 pounds by the end of the year?
Finally, how to survive the nasty outbreak of aphids in Calgary. Meryl Coombs from Spruce It Up has some advice including the best ladybugs to buy if you want to use bugs to battle bugs!
