	Description:		A recent report takes a longer view on Canada's hot, hot, housing market, and offers a plan for addressing the country's supply of homes. Scotiabank Economist Farah Omran joins us to unpack the findings. A CBC News investigation has found that at least 111 people in Atlantic Canada have died on ATVs or snowmobiles since 2018. We speak with the CBC's Karissa Donkin about that story. Gas prices in most of Labrador are up almost 32 cents a litre this morning. George Murphy from the Consumer Group for Fair Gas Prices gives us the scoop on why. He's a braille brainiac! We hear about 8 year old Jonathan Nochasak, a talented grade three student in Hopedale who recently won the Braille Challenge. The Town of Happy Valley-Goose Bay will not be giving up its body camera program for municipal enforcement officers. Deputy Mayor Bert Pomeroy responds to an investigation done by the province's privacy commissioner. In 2019, Jevaughn Coley became one of the first two Black police officers to join the RNC, and he's now posted in Labrador City. We hear from Coley about his time with the RNC. For the first time in 42 years, the Leafs and Habs will meet in the NHL playoffs. We hear from two brothers with their take on the series. The pandemic pushed more than a million Canadian women out of the workforce, and many more have had their work hours reduced. This has led to psychological stresses, which is something the Mental Health Commission of Canada is monitoring and tracking. We speak to Liz Horvath of the commission about that.
