On today’s show:
Ontario’s Six Nations’ community will host Canada’s largest Electricity Battery Storage Project. The French Immersion program phase out, still very unpopular in New Brunswick. Citizens are still waiting to know if New Brunswick’s Premier Blaine Higgs will stay the course or back down. To Nova Scotia where the minimum wage will increase to $15 an hour in October. But more needs to be done, says the Halifax Workers Action Centre. The University of the Fraser Valley’s Peace and Reconciliation Centre will soon offer a non-credit program focused on reconciliation building for non-Indigenous Canadians. And the City of Prince Rupert is currently in the process of rebranding and upgrading signs around town, a project that will feature Sm’algyax language.
