Things that many of us take for granted here in Canada are real-life struggles for millions in other parts of the world. Having enough food to eat, having a place to sell a product, having a safe place to sleep or wondering about the safety of your next meal. There are many projects that Canadians undertake globally to help those in need, but we wanted to focus on three of them that were helping farmers and helping feed & build up communities with some great success.

What Makes A Good Whisky? (S1E18)
When it comes to spirits production in North America, there isn't anyone bigger than Windsor, Ontario's Hiram Walker. They make and bottle brands like JP Wisers, Malibu Rum, Polar Ice Vodka, McGuiness liquers & more. For their Master Blender Dr. Don Livermore, it was the career he dreamed of at first, but you can easily tell just how passionate he has become on whisky. What makes a good product? How do you know what consumers want 10 years from now? And how does Canada make an impact globally? It's all questions we get answers to.

Food Waste & Actually Doing Something About It S1E17
Food waste is becoming a clear concern for millions of Canadians. Stories of bushels of apples being thrown out because they didn't look right or sour cream that was discarded because it was getting close to its best before date are all getting more attention as something that needs to change. But few have been doing more than Lori Nikkel at Second Harvest. Her team has worked hard to match food that might otherwise be thrown out, with people that need it. And now they are rolling out a new tool to help people match that need even more effectively all over Canada. Imagine a breakfast program finding apples from an orchard or community centre discovering cookies that need to be used up from a retailer. We talk how big of an issue it is and what we can all do about it in this episode.

What's the Deal With Meat & The Environment? S1E16
The conversation around eating meat and the impact on the environment isn't going anywhere. Whether that be plant-based food companies touting their product as the saviour of climate change, or meat-based farmers and food companies touting their sustainability efforts as the way forward, it can be hard to find the middle ground. That's why we thought we better call a doctor. Dr. Jude Capper is a Livestock Sustainability Consultant based on the UK who looks at all kinds of data to piece together a clearer picture on what impact livestock farming has on the environment, both good & bad. In this episode we cover all kinds of questions like what is the real impact, does it matter where the milk or meat comes from, and can more be done to make raising food sustainable?

Top of the Food Chain - Michael Barrett, Gay Lea Foods (S1E15)
Michael Barrett may have wanted to stand in front of a classroom, but instead he is standing in front of Canada's dairy industry. The President & CEO of Gay Lea Foods Co-operative has had the job for 5 years, leading the company through the biggest partnerships, investments and purchases the company has ever seen. From a household name in Ontario, to adding in goat milk, members in another province and stretching into Alberta, Barrett is betting that a coast to coast company will fare far better than a small, regional player.
We talk leadership & education, how to compete against much bigger players, and why a dairy company would enter the non-dairy category with coconut.
