Today on NOW with Dave Brown, we have our weekly news panel with Michelle McQuigge and Meagan Gillmore. We discuss vaccinations for health workers and explore whether they should be made mandatory. We talk about the responsibility of employers and explore a recent outbreak at a CIBC call centre, where some workers are wondering why they aren’t able to work remotely. And, we also talk about the advantages and disadvantages of AVI, Asynchronous Video Interviews. In the second hour of the show, entertainment critic Michael McNeely explores issues of anti-Asian racism and representation in mainstream film.
