The federal budget was unveiled Thursday afternoon, and it lays out some of the big bets the Carney government plans on making in the years ahead. A $36-billion tax break to kickstart an “investment supercycle”. A number of affordability measures. A plan to end homelessness within a decade. But those bets also raise some uncomfortable questions. Can we really fast track huge nation building projects and still hit our climate goals? How much debt are we taking on to pay for it all? And will any of this actually make life more affordable? CBC senior parliamentary writer Aaron Wherry was in the budget lockup, and he’s here to break it all down.

Why Kat Sandler gave Baba Yaga a sexy, vengeful makeover
Forget the crooked nose and the bubbling cauldron. For her new Crave series YAGA, award-winning Canadian playwright and director Kat Sandler turns Slavic folklore upside down, reimagining the mythical witch Baba Yaga as a complex, sexually liberated woman who turns the tables on bad men. The eight-part murder mystery series is an adaptation of Kat’s celebrated play of the same name. She sits down with Tom Power to talk about reclaiming the narrative of the crone, channeling overlooked female rage into a TV anti-hero, and what it took to bring her hit stage play to the screen alongside stars Carrie-Anne Moss and Hudson Williams. YAGA is streaming now on Crave.

Somewhere in the depths of the internet, a secretive collection of audio files promises something extraordinary: the ability to rewrite who you are. They call it Bambi Sleep. For some, it's fantasy. For others, an escape. But for those who venture deeper, the lines between pleasure, identity and control can begin to disappear. Who created these mys terious recordings? What happens to the people who surrender themselves to them? And why do some claim they can never truly escape? In this five-part investigative documentary, Host Rhys Waters follows a trail of anonymous creators, devoted listeners and extraordinary claims into a world where reality and suggestion become difficult to separate. What begins as an investigation into an obscure internet phenomenon soon raises unsettling questions about consent, manipulation and the power of the human mind. Is Bambi Sleep an elaborate fantasy, a dangerous experiment in psychological control, or something we don't yet have the language to understand? There's only one way to find out. Put on your headphones. And listen. WARNING: Some excerpts may contain language, phrases, or audio associated with Bambi Sleep recordings that listeners could find triggering or unsettling. Any audio excerpts are included for journalistic and documentary purposes, not as instructions or invitations to participate. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Et si l’on vous envoyait à la guerre armé non pas d’un fusil, mais d’une pelle et d’une pioche? En 1914, alors que la Première Guerre mondiale éclate, des milliers d’hommes canadiens se précipitent pour s’enrôler. Mais lorsque des hommes noirs se présentent pour servir, ils sont refusés. « C’est une guerre de Blancs », leur dit-on. Le Canada ne veut pas d’une « armée à damier ».

Dr. John Schneider rode into town like a character out of a Western: an outsider on a Harley-Davidson, in trademark cowboy boots. He promised relief to patients suffering in Wyoming and Montana. He seemed like the hero they needed. But when surgeries go wrong and a strange letter exposes a bitter feud, medical professionals and government officials search for the truth about this cowboy doctor. They discover claims of broken bodies, bullying, fraud, and lawsuits. From Audible, the fifth season of the hit series Dr. Death returns with The Cowboy: the story of a surgeon who took advantage of a broken system and the fight to bring him to justice. Listen to the whole series now ad-free on Audible. Episodes are available weekly everywhere you listen to podcasts. Season 4: When a charismatic young doctor announces revolutionary treatments for cancer and HIV, patients from around the world turn to him for their last chance. As medical experts praise Serhat Gumrukcu’s genius, the company he co-founded rockets in value to over half a billion dollars. But when a team of researchers makes a startling discovery, they begin to suspect the brilliant doctor is hiding a secret. Season 3: Paolo is a smart and handsome surgeon, renowned for his ability to perform surgeries that transform his patients’ lives. When television producer Benita covers him for a story, he’ll transform her life too, but not in the ways she expects. As Benita crosses professional lines to be with him, she learns how far Paolo will go to protect his secrets. And halfway around the world, four doctors at a prestigious medical institute make shocking discoveries of their own that call everything into question. Season 2: If someone you love is diagnosed with cancer you want them to get the best treatment from the best doctors. In 2013, patients in Michigan thought Farid Fata was that doctor. Between his prestigious education, years of experience and pleasant bedside manner, Fata was everything you could want in a doctor. But he was not who he appeared to be. This is the story of hundreds of patients in Michigan, a doctor, and a poisonous secret. Season 1: We’re at our most vulnerable when we go to our doctors. We trust the person at the other end of that scalpel. We trust the hospital. We trust the system. Christopher Duntsch was a neurosurgeon who radiated confidence. He claimed he was the best in Dallas. If you had back pain, and had tried everything else, Dr. Duntsch could give you the spine surgery that would take your pain away. But soon his patients started to experience complications, and the system failed to protect them. Which begs the question: who - or what - is that system meant to protect? Dr. Death is a story about a charming surgeon, 33 patients and a spineless system. Audible subscribers can listen to all episodes of Dr. Death ad-free right now.
