The world is paying attention to the current war between Russia and Ukraine. While it is devastating and horrific for the Ukrainian people, it is just the latest in more than a century of war, occupation, oppression, and resilience. What makes a person resilient? What makes a people resilient? And how does that come through in a country where violence and threats from all sides have been ongoing for lifetimes? Tomas Vanderkam's research into resilience is informed by his Ukrainian heritage, and he joins the podcast to explore both.

Contingent work in Canada with Dr. Catherine Connelly
Contingent workers, a group which includes gig workers, contract workers, and temporary foreign workers, are a growing segment of Canada's workforce. This trend shows no signs of slowing, and as a result there is an increasing need to protect those workers, who are vulnerable to abuse and exploitation. Today's guest, Dr. Catherine Connelly, tells us about the current state of contingent work in Canada, and suggests some ways we can ensure the safety and security of Canadian contingent workers going forward.
