    February 2 2025-How, Where, When to Vote in the Ontario Election & Troubling New Statistics About Poverty Among Older Adults February 27 is election day in Ontario. With more than 10.8 million eligible voters, the team at Elections Ontario is busy behind the scenes, with just weeks to organize this rare winter campaign. Voting is already underway, and there are a number of ways to cast your ballot. And it’s also a good opportunity for Zoomers to earn some extra cash working the election. In fact, Elections Ontario is hiring 55 thousand workers for various polling station positions. Laura Sylvis with Elections Ontario joins us with all the election details. And New research warns there are nearly double the number of older adults living in poverty than Canada’s official number of 6 percent. The National Institute on Ageing is out with a new report on the social well-being and financial security of Canadians over 50 that highlights the connection between poverty and health. We reached Doctor Samir Sinha, the NIA Director of Health Policy to find out more about the survey “Ageing in Canada”.

    January 19 2025-A New Book About Chrystia Freeland & Tim Caulfield's "The Certainty Illusion" When Catherine Tsalikis started writing her biography of Chrystia Freeland four years ago, she worried that her subject could fade from public view before the book came out.
