    Are Older Workers More Costly: Let's Dispell the Myths
    Jan 8 2026
    Are older employees in the workforce wrongfully keeping work away from young people who are fresh out of school? Is AI taking over older workers' jobs first? Are aging employees too expensive to keep around? Let's get to the bottom of these questions. Kelly MacDonald speaks with Lisa Taylor, Founder and CEO of Challenge Factory, a Canadian research and advisory firm focused on the future of work, dedicated to career services for older workers. She, along with Project Coordinator Jennifer St.Denis and Research Associate Emily Carew, gives us the decades of research-backed answers to our questions and teaches us what we can learn from older employees in the workforce. Michael French, National Director at Robert Half Canada, gives us the trending patterns, statistics, and market research around the current state of employment in Canada, helping us place our bets on where things are headed this year and into the future.

  • BO and Beyond: The Shared Responsibilities of Personal Hygiene

    BO and Beyond: The Shared Responsibilities of Personal Hygiene
    Jan 7 2026
    From crowded buses and train stations to classrooms, gyms, and healthcare settings, we’re constantly negotiating hygiene in shared spaces. Nisreen Abdel-Majid explores how to approach the tricky conversations of hygiene, addressing environment, expectation, and access. Kindergarten teacher Melinda Morbi shares how hygiene is introduced early in classrooms and how those messages can follow us into adulthood. Cardio and kickboxing instructor Noura Sadek reflects on fitness spaces where sweat is expected, and how fitness culture shapes ideas of cleanliness and confidence. Ada Juristovski, co-founder and CEO of Nala Care, compares health choices like antiperspirants versus deodorants, while registered nurse Leslie Depoe discusses hygiene standards in healthcare settings and their impact on care and comfort. We ask where the line lies between private choice and public responsibility when it comes to hygiene in shared spaces.
