From duelling CPP consultations to questions being raised about the UCP’s COVID-19 Panel and new information on the UCP’s attempt to import children’s medication- there’s a lot to talk about this week.

Cheryl & Erika both take vacation, but are still checking in for another show! In episode 3 they discuss the findings of the Public Health Emergencies Governance Review Panel Report and wonder if Alberta and Ottawa will ever figure out how to work together.
