February is Black History Month and we’ll have a great story for you. Canada Post honours Mary Ann Shadd, an activist, publisher, lawyer, teacher and journalist who was influential in the Underground Railroad movement. A new stamp was revealed in honour of her accomplishments. One of her descendants shares her excitement with us.
Ottawa caps international student permits. Changes will mainly affect BC, Quebec and Ontario. We’ll then turn to British Columbia to see what it means for the University of the Fraser Valley. And to Ontario, where the Ludmila Art Gallery, which focusses on women artists, closes its doors. The owner feels people just can’t seem to afford luxury art anymore.
