This week on the program, Terry Haig joins me, Marc Montgomery, as we look at some of the stories covered this week.

We’ll hear about an interesting book which suggests that the availbility of food and the lack of it has been the underlying factor behind the rise and fall of civilizations.

We also learn about a surprising discovery in the high Arctic. Researchers discovered bone fragments from a prehistoric camel, showing that camels, those ships of the desert, may have originated in the snowy and slightly less cold Arctic.

Canadians pay the among the highest mobile phone rates anywhere, and a citizens group is calling on the government to make changes. The government is planning to auction off new bandwidth and will limit the participation of the big 3 wireless companies which now control over 90% of the Canadian market.

And, Team Canada is participating in the World Baseball Classic. But this international event is little known, and Canada’s performance has not been good in previous events.

Remember, we love to get your comments and opinions.
