With tensions in the Middle East raising concerns about global oil supply, many experts are asking whether energy shocks like this could accelerate the shift to cleaner power. While countries in Asia rely heavily on oil from the Persian Gulf, Canada produces a lot of its own energy but we’re still tied to global oil prices that affect what we pay at the pump. So could disruptions like this push Canada to invest more heavily in renewable energy, electric vehicles and energy independence? Renewable energy investment strategist Pavel Molchanov from Raymond James spoke to Ken Connors.

Certain high-protein foods are suddenly really hard to find. In fact, some Montreal shoppers say they’ve been going from store to store just trying to find cottage cheese. Experts say social media may be partly to blame, with TikTok and fitness influencers pushing high-protein diets, sometimes encouraging people to eat 150 grams of protein a day or more. But is this protein obsession actually necessary for most people? Nutritionist Robin Glance spoke to Andrew Carter.

Menopause is something millions of women experience, but it’s still rarely talked about in the workplace. A new report from LiveCareer suggests the impact may be bigger than many employers realize, with nearly seven in ten women saying menopause symptoms affect their productivity, and almost all saying they feel pressure to hide what they’re going through at work. The topic has also been getting attention here in Quebec after Liberal MNA Jennifer Maccarone openly acknowledged having a hot flash during a committee hearing at the National Assembly, a moment that quickly went viral and drew praise for helping normalize the conversation. Career expert Dr. Jasmine Escalera, who helped author the report, spoke to Andrew Carter.
