The Native Apology


Today we’ll hear from those affected by the residential schools. We’ll hear why the government is ready to apologize for wrongs caused and bring you an interview with Indian Affairs Minister, Chuck Strahl, on how the government is preparing for this historic apology. And since churches were partners that used to run the residential schools, we’ll listen for the Christian voice on the issues this apology raises.  In Duncan B.C., where a residential school was demolished, Listen Up went to hear from a church community that is moving forward in reconciliation with Canada’s founding peoples.  Read more...

The Right to a Home – The Story of Vicki Mansell

Twenty-two thousand. It's a big number that represents a group of small people. That's because it's the number of children awaiting adoption in this country. Today on Listen Up, a child's right to a home and ways that you can foster or adopt these children!

Over the past decade, the number of children in foster care in Canada has increased 65 per cent. It's a shocking reality that translates into disturbing numbers. More than 76-thousand children live in foster care. 22-thousand await adoption. Only a small percentage of them will ever find the homes and families they dream of.

Today: a story that defies the odds. Vicki Mansell's childhood was headline-making for abuse and the loss of her parents. What's happened to her in the 20 years since her horrific tragedy?

We'll visit a BC couple who spent 25 years fostering, and who call 12 children their own, including Vicki Mansell, and interview a group of people who care about Canada's need to find homes for 22,000 children. They gathered in Toronto recently, to bring attention to the problem. Read more...

Let's Talk: Your Thoughts on "Waiting, Hoping, Remembering"

No need for stress!  Just enjoy the gift of each moment.  Merry Christmas! Connie

Another great "made me think" show. Very clever the way you got us all riled up about how self indulgent and wasteful we are and then when we're vulnerable and primed you intro us to "Free Trade" ops. Fred

A visit or contact with a friend. Some people leave a gift at the door. I would rather have no gift & the contact...an afternoon tea, or just a little visit & time of sharing. That is what I will remember. Marion

Let's Talk: Your Thoughts on "Taser Tragedy: Who is my Neighbour?"

James Grunau: Fine job with the show on Sunday and the perspective on neighborliness.  I had never seen the show before and was impressed in how you handled the situation in a thoughtful and deep way without being too "religious"

Nelida: Its my first time to watch your program LISTEN UP until it catched my attention about the man who tasered and died at Vancouver Airport.   It gives me opportunity to share and voice out my opinions  on the topic each week of your program LISTEN UP.  I really like your program and it's very interesting , ' cause  all pertains of what's happening each day and in everyday life.  For sure, I will watch  LISTEN UP this Sunday

Jake: Regarding your programs of late concerning the man at Vancouver air port. It seems you are some what biased in that you are making judgment on the air port staff and the police. It seems to me that your TV time could be better spent  preaching the gospel of salvation than to stir into situations you are not very familiar with.
