You've likely experienced problems with a bully and maybe didn't know how to deal with it. Some people are saying that one of the biggest bullies is running the most powerful country in the world. Tony Volk, Brock University professor in the department of child and youth studies and associate member in the department of psychology, joins Evan to share how Canada should deal with "bullies."

Pope Francis leaves behind a significant legacy for those of faith -- and others -- to learn from. Evan welcomes Michael MacLean, campus minister for the University of Saskatchewan's St. Thomas More College, to share more about the Pope's work and the significance of his Jesuit roots.

With the passing of Pope Francis, Evan speaks with Erica Beaudin, Chief of Cowessess First Nation, who met with the Pope ahead of his travels to Canada to apologize to Indigenous people in 2022.
