This was an utterly fantastic documentary by @phliscbc today on Atlantic Voice. Perhaps a story on the Baille Ard Trail hemlocks in Cape Breton and the controversial water management system being built throughout the trail could be considered. Give a listen to this doc piece.

Wearing good quality, well fitting masks, ensuring good ventilation if indoors, maintaining distance & being vaccinated are the best ways to protect against this airborne virus. #OmicronVariant is very transmissible & we all need to be extra careful now @DrTedros @PeterASinger

How does #COVID19 spread? What are some modes of transmission? What can you do to protect yourself? @DrMikeRyan explains.



Thanks @sherfitch this is one of the most inspiring stories I’ve ever worked on :)

91-year-old Ernest Partridge says the dykes along the Upper Bay of Fundy are constantly in need of repair. Depending on the storm, the dykes are not always high enough to fight back the ocean – and that will become increasingly true as sea levels rise.

John Atkinson on his farmland just west of Amherst, at the mouth of where the LaPlanche River and the Missaguash River meet before they empty out into the Cumberland Basin. In the past 70 years, the sea level there has risen more than a third of a metre.
