In this podcast:

  • The family of a former RCMP officer who took her life, has finally been compensated for years of abuse. Krista Carle was one of the first female officers to blow the whistle on sexual and psychological abuse she suffered as an RCMP officer in Alberta.

  • Another unintended consequence of the pandemic is affecting recycling in Nanaimo.

  • The city says  blue carts containing oversize cardboard larger than two feet in any dimension may not be collected.

  • Local sports organizations will have access to a $1 and a half million dollar fund to help them survive the pandemic.

  • Lisa Beare says the money is to help smaller groups that rely on membership fees, events and tournaments to sustain them.
