Real Talk Ryan Jespersen Relay

Canada's rate of workplace fatalities is among the worst in the developed world. More workers die in Alberta alone every year than the entire UK. Why is Canada's safety record so poor? Why haven't we learned from tragedy after tragedy? Where's the accountability? How do we turn this trend around? 
2:55 | Nicole Gnazdowsky's brother Andrew was killed at a Nova Scotia power dam site where he was working as an engineer. Julie Hamilton's son Tim died when a party tent he was erecting hit a power line. They join behavioural scientist Rob Stewart to expose Canada's atrocious safety record, and propose a way forward.
