As Taliban forces seize control of Afghanistan, what does the takeover mean for Afghan women and girls? We speak with Vrinda Narain of McGill University about the situation on the ground and what the future may hold. Youth from Hopedale and Nain are on a land-based outing to Hopedale's lodge. Roxanne Greene of Labrador City says an RNC sergeant, to whom she was married for years, made her life a living hell. And despite repeatedly asking for help, the police force put her ex-husband's career ahead of her safety. The CBC's Malone Mullin brings us that story. Shawn Solomon of Nain was celebrated after successfully rescuing a child who fell into the water back in 2017. We hear from him, and from the ceremony that presented him with the Newfoundland and Labrador Bravery Award. Learning a new language can be challenging, but in Nunatsiavut communities signs have been posted to help people learn Inuttitut phrases. We hear from Robyn Martin and Rita-Ann Dicker. The Snowbirds gymnastics club in Labrador City received some funding to improve its program. We speak with head coach Emily Greene. Finally, one of the most common communication tools in the world, email, is 50 years old. People grumble about overflowing inboxes, terrible email etiquette and the massive productivity drag it is. The CBC's Manjula Selvarajah asks if it's time to disrupt email. |
