Sadly, you can no longer do that, as the transit service plans to discontinue this offer. Do you understand OC Transpo’s reasoning, and does that make you feel more or less upset? Kristy Cameron sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Shifting gears to Health news, a hospital in Kingston is now the first in Canada to use A.I. imaging technology, all thanks to a massive donation. Joining us in Hour 3 to explain further is Dr. Omar Islam, the Head of Diagnostic Radiology at the Kingston Health Sciences Centre. He is the bright mind who is being tasked to operate and handle this technological upgrade.
