Scott Thompson Show

The Hamilton Today Podcast with Scott Thompson: It’s International Women’s Day! How can companies and employees show support for women on this day? How can equitable and equal opportunities be presented? And what about wage parity? Scott hears from Mujda Rasoul, associate director at Peninsula Canada. More locally, several breweries in Northern Ontario have teamed up for a International Women’s Day beer! Ashley Watt head brewer at Dawson Trail Craft Brewery tells Scott about the initiative. We’re almost half way through March and our initiative to raise funds/gather essential needs supplies for Essential Aid continues. One company has been putting out videos in support of MarchPADness to get the message out. Mike Valchuk, owner of the company in question, joins Scott. In other news, The Bank of Canada has decided to pause the rate for now after a year of aggressive hikes. What does that mean for regular Canadians? Don Fox gives you and Scott some financial advice. It is all coming up on the Hamilton Today Pod
