It's so easy to blame the gun or blame the car or whatever, but we never, ever want to go to the fact that there was an issue and we could have done something
When a high school shooting shakes a community to its core, who holds the responsibility? In this episode of 'Road to Recovery', Yonah Budd dives into the complex interplay between children's gun violence and parental responsibility. Drawing from his extensive experience in addiction counseling and mental health, Yonah brings a nuanced perspective to this tragic topic.
But that's not all—he also sheds light on a recent case of police brutality involving a Montreal teen, adding another layer of urgency to the discussion. Yonah doesn't tackle these heavy subjects alone. He is joined by Eric Dumschat, Legal Director of MADD Canada, who discusses the organization's push for Toronto councilors to reconsider the pause on ride-share drivers' licenses.
The episode also features Mackenzie Irwin, an Associate at Samfiru Tumarkin LLP, who breaks down Ontario’s new “Right to Disconnect” law and its implications for workers. This episode isn't just about pointing out problems; it's about understanding the broader societal issues that contribute to them. Whether it's the impact of second-hand smoke on children's health or the challenges of opioid dependency and workplace burnout, Yonah and his guests offer thoughtful insights and practical advice.
If you're interested in a podcast that tackles tough issues with empathy and expertise, this episode of 'Road to Recovery' is a must-listen. Tune in to gain a deeper understanding of the challenges we face and the steps we can take towards a healthier, more responsible society.
