We’re talking about the Change project today – and discussing the findings of a Wilfrid Laurier University study…into the nature and extent of gendered violence on campuses.

11:30 – Apple Watch
Carmi Levy, Tech Analyst
It’s the device that all Apple fans have (apparently) been waiting for – the Apple Watch. The ‘smartwatch’ will cost you a cool $449 in Canada when it hits stores on April 24th, although if you want the gold luxury version you’ll have to dish out more than $13,000. It’s Apple’s first gadget since the iPad’s debut five years ago.
