    Karen Orlandi, Minister at Silver Spire Church in downtown St. Catharines:

    There's been a lot of conversations in the past week or so about people
    in downtown St. Catharines who have no homes or are using drugs and that
    the city's core is not safe. Karen Orlandi is minister at Silver Spire
    Church and she and Silver Spire do a lot of outreach. She talks to
    Janice Arnoldi about how she sees homelessnes and drug use and how the
    world is divided between the "good" - people with homes and the "bad" -
    people who are un-housed.

    Blue Guardian Emmanuel Akindele

    New mobile app to help kids to track their mental health was released to mark Mental Health Week. – Blue Guardian - uses AI to help kids identify how they are feeling. Founder Emmanuel Akindelay had some bad experiences with mental health as a child, including teachers who just brushed him off rather than offering help.  But while AI like ChatGPT uses publicly available intelligence and knowledge to make information hyper available to anyone, Blue Guardian only tracks emotional intelligence based solely on the individual using the app.
