 Radio Totally Normal Toronto, or RTNT for short, is a voice for community mental health; it is produced by the members and staff of Progress Place, a mental wellness clubhouse in downtown Toronto. This wonderful Wednesday, March 13th, 2019, we had Johnny, a member of RTNT, hosting the show.
Today you will hear an interview and Vox pops of members from Progress Place. They will discuss the topics of Mental Health and Spring Cleaning. First up we spend time with Charmaine Pang, a meditation instructor. After that interview we’ll be hearing from members of Progress Place speaking on spring cleaning. Vox pop comes from the Latin term vox populi, which means ‘voice of the people’. Media College explains that it is used in media where interviewers on television and radio go ‘on the streets’ to ask passerbys simple questions on specific topics. Huge thanks to Charmaine Pang for dropping by Progress Place to share her knowledge on meditation for us.

This question, and several others were asked and answered on Saturday, September 28th, when about 70 interested community members attended a Health Care Action Forum hosted by Indivisible CA-39, Health Access, and CA-39 Action Council at the Embassy Suites in Brea. When the majority of people in our country agree that access to health care is one of the most important issues of our day, why are some still faced with “health care bankruptcy”? While there is broad support for universal health care, why are there continued disparities for access among some groups? As with most big social issues, health care is complex and requires that we consider health insurance and quality of care from a variety of perspectives. Leave a Reply. |
