	Description:		On today's show, we have an in-depth conversation regarding the disaster in Turkey and Syria after a 7.8 earthquake hit the region on Monday. We speak with Serhan Tarkan, president of the Turkish Canadian Cultural Association of Calgary and Marwa Khobieh, the executive director of the Syrian Canadian Foundation. Plus the Alberta law society has voted to keep continuing education rules in place after more than 800 lawyers signed a petition to have the rules regarding an Indigenous history and culture course removed. We find out more from Koren Lightning-Earle, the legal director of the University of Alberta’s Wahkohtowin Law and Governance lodge. And why does the federal government spend millions of dollars advertising on the social media platforms they're trying to regulate? We ask Vass Bednar, a senior fellow with the Centre for International Governance Innovation and executive director of McMaster University’s Master of Public Policy in Digital Society program.
