To any students who planned on purchasing an OC Transpo Youth Pass ahead of the new learning season, we have bad news for you. Sadly, you can no longer do that, as the transit service plans to discontinue this offer. Do you understand OC Transpo’s reasoning, and does that make you feel more or less upset? Kristy Cameron sifts through the CFRA textboard and tackles today’s Question of the Day. Shifting gears to Health news, a hospital in Kingston is now the first in Canada to use A.I. imaging technology, all thanks to a massive donation. Joining us in Hour 3 to explain further is Dr. Omar Islam, the Head of Diagnostic Radiology at the Kingston Health Sciences Centre. He is the bright mind who is being tasked to operate and handle this technological upgrade.

From its earliest days, the Avon River has been the heart of the community of Stratford, Ont. The centrepiece of the river, known as Lake Victoria, was created in the 1830s as a millpond for industry. The parks board later convinced the city to invest in horse-drawn scoops to dredge the lake. Locals warded off railroad proposals along the shorelines, where roses from Queen Mary were planted. A pair of swans from Queen Elizabeth arrived in 1967.
