Miscellaneous


The legislation governing the democratic process in Newfoundland and Labrador is currently being reviewed by a committee in the House of Assembly. We speak about the process with Lake Melville MHA Perry Trimper. Discussion about amalgamation has once again become a topic of interest in Labrador West in light of the closure of the Mike Adam Recreation Complex. We speak with Enid Slack of the Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy about the consequences and tradeoffs of amalgamating municipalities. A court order is in place to prevent the Town of Happy Valley-Goose Bay from reinstituting its body camera program. We get an update on what this means for the program going forward from provincial Privacy Commissioner Michael Harvey. The Journey Project is giving survivors a way to share their stories through photographs. We hear how survivors of sexual violence from all over the province can take part and connect with one another when we speak with Ashley MacDonald, legal support navigator with The Journey Project. A pen pal project hopes to connect seniors with students at Lake Melville School, and they're looking for seniors to participate. We hear from teachers Alicia Seaward and Roy Moore. The Hudson's Bay Company staff house in Cartwright is now a designated heritage site. We speak with owner Gerald Saunders, who has big plans for the property.
