Spotting fake news, pitching YYC to companies, Trump's impeachment trouble and The Beatles and the Maharashi
Description
We begin with a look at how Canadians view so-called ‘fake’ news. A survey by Historica Canada found most of us have been duped by a fake news story, but we’re also not that concerned about it. We find out why.
As Calgary continues to try and lure new companies to move here and set up shop, other provinces and even states in the U.S. are doing the same thing. Mary Moran from Calgary Economic development talks about the competition to get them here and also keep business from moving away.
Impeachment is the word of the day as U.S. President Trump finds himself a target by the Democrats. Global National’s Reggie Cecchini looks at whether it could remove Trump from the White House.
Author Susan Shumsky joins us to talk about how music by The Beatles was influenced by their time spent with the Maharashi , including great songs on The White Album.
Finally, sportscaster-turned-author Lisa Bowes introduces us to her latest book ‘Lucy tries Basketball’, which she hopes will encourage more kids to get active.
