B.C.’s Singletree Winery, near Abbotsford airport, attracts Ontario visitors but cannot ship wine directly to them due to interprovincial trade barriers. While a new agreement allows B.C. wineries to sell directly to Alberta consumers, other provinces, including Ontario, still require purchases through government-controlled liquor boards, leading to high markups.

2025/02/18

The field of sensory heritage focuses on how we engage with heritage objects through senses beyond vision, such as smell, which is often overlooked in museum conservation. Researchers are developing methods to preserve culturally significant smells, with projects like recreating the scent of St. Paul’s Cathedral’s library and the “Odeuropa” project, which explored the smells of 17th-century Europe.

Does the US subsidize Canada?

Mornings with Simi ·

2025/02/17

Donald Trump’s claim that the U.S. “subsidizes” Canada by hundreds of billions annually is central to his argument for annexation, but experts say it’s misleading. His figures fluctuate—ranging from $100 billion to $250 billion—but the U.S.’s actual trade deficit with Canada was $63 billion in 2024, far lower than his claims.

Instead of using traditional methods that always produce the same results, researchers took a more flexible, probability-based approach. Guest: Dr. Nik Gourianov -
