As usual, we will provide a summary of the myriad programs and services currently being run by CAHMA and The Connection.

The top issue for discussion locally is the CanTEST Health and Drug Checking Service Program Evaluation Final Report. We will discuss the Executive Summary and reflect on what a positive initiative it has been and areas where it could possibly be improved.

We will discuss a story about the attitude of the new President of the Philippines to previous indications that the International Criminal Court (ICC) were going to investigate former President Rodrigo Duterte. On July 18, the Appeals Chamber of the ICC is expected to release its decision on the Philippine governments’ plea against the court’s resumption of its probe.

The show is co-presented by Geoff Ward and Marion Watson.
