OTTAWA — About 30 people are gathered in a small, windowless conference room on the second floor of a hotel in an Ottawa suburb, awaiting the guest of honour, who is a few minutes late. There's no podium. No microphone. No flashy branding, except for a smallish laminated poster board that features the tag line: "People Before Politics." When Roman Baber walks in wearing dark jeans and a black suit jacket, he greets each person, none of whom are wearing masks, with a handshake. One woman thanks h

Longtime overdose prevention advocate Sarah Blyth knows marijuana isn't a cure-all for issues of addiction and overdose, but she says it can help some people.

High Hopes started in 2017 as a harm-reduction program that distributed medical

Kathleen Dunbar worked in two different worlds. She started her career in the mental health field, then transitioned to become a registered veterinary technician in her 30s. Now, she's found a way to combine her two passions. "I always felt like the human needs of the industry weren't being met," Dunbar said. "And then I did some research and I found out that there actually was something called veterinary social work." Dunbar recently went back to school at Dalhousie University to earn her maste

While Yukon's environment minister says the territory is making inroads into land conservation, he has not committed to targets set by the federal government. The federal government has pledged to conserve 25 per cent of national lands by 2025. This is a stepping stone toward a more ambitious target of 30 per cent by 2030. Asked whether the Yukon will formally adopt these targets, Clarke didn't provide a definitive answer. "We anticipate we will reach 25 per cent set aside, even prior to 2025,"

But the beach has seen some foreboding signs this summer. When Chantel Nash went for a walk along the shoreline earlier this week, she found about 10 dead birds — mostly gannets, suspect

Parents of children subjected to an exorcism at a Saskatchewan children's Bible camp say RCMP and other officials need to take the incident more seriously, and some criminal law experts agree. These experts say details in descriptions of the July 13 exorcism, published as part of a CBC investigation into Redberry Bible Camp, sound like they could be criminal offences. "I think the most clear thing to say about it is that it's an assault on these young people to be subjected to procedures like th
