  • Resumen

  • ‌Conspiracy theories and misinformation spread like wildfire on social media. But we’re not talking lizard people secretly living among us, this morning we’re discussing the misinformation around wildfires spreading online in recent years. We tackle the topic with Chris Russill, Associate Professor in the School of Journalism & Communication at Carleton University. Next, it’s a ‘grim’ statistic. Close to 500 Canadians die from drowning each year. Before you jump into the deep-end of the community pool or lake this summer to cool off, it’s important to ensure you are practicing water safety to keep you and your family safe. It’s “World Drowning Prevention Week” and we took the opportunity to get some ‘Water Safety Tips’ from Madison Lalonde, Director of Communications and Public Education with the Lifesaving Society of Alberta and Northwest Territories. Finally, it’s a chance for you and the family to immerse yourself in indigenous culture and learn about the cultural significance of a traditional “Powwow”. We catch up with Autumn EagleSpeaker, Southern Alberta’s first female Powwow emcee, for details on a unique series being presented by the Calgary Public Library called “Powwow Trail 101”.
