8:30 – Saskatchewan has seen high numbers of COVID-19 in recent days, and broke our single-day record for new cases on Thursday. This is putting additional strain on the Saskatchewan Health Authority’s hospitals and contact tracers, leading the SHA to relocate Royal University Hospital’s intensive care unit to a larger space. New measures take effect today to reduce the spread of COVID-19 by mandating masks in indoor spaces and reducing our indoor private gathering limit to 10, but will it be enough to help relieve the pressure? To tell us more, John is joined by SHA CEO Scott Livingstone.

11:00 – Military historian Tim Cook has written extensively about Canada at war, and his latest book ‘The Fight for History: 75 Years of Forgetting, Remembering and Remaking Canada’s Second World War,’ explores how the public’s impressions of Canada’s war efforts have changed over the years. Do Canadians still have the same respect and reverence for our warriors that we used to? How have impressions changed? What parts of our war history go overlooked? With Remembrance Day right around the corner, we wanted to catch up with Tim for a discussion on how Canada views its own history.

12:00 – In 1967, two men vanished from a remote camp at Lower Foster Lake. One was Cree Band Councillor Absolom Halkett, and the other was Métis leader James Brady. Both men had enemies, and both were activists. Their bodies were never found, but a new book is shedding light on the case. In ‘Cold Case North,’ author Michael Nest, along with Deanna Reder and Eric Bell, tells the story of how a small team exposed police failures during the original investigation, and uncovered new information with help from the Indigenous community. Nest joins Gormley to tell us more about the new book.
