In this episode of Kingston Currents, CFRC’s Broadcast Journalist Christena Lawrie covers the kickoff of the 2024 Kingston General Hospital (KGH) Auxiliary Teddy Bear campaign, this year taking on an ambitious goal.
She covers the appearance of a 15-foot wooden Trojan Horse at Kingston Health Sciences Centre yesterday, part of CUPE’s Ontario Council of Hospital Unions (OCHU-CUPE) and the Ontario Health Coalition’s rally against the privatization of health services in Ontario.
Lawrie also discusses the Agnes Etherington Arts Centre’s announcement of a $2M contribution from Canadian Heritage’s Canada Cultural Spaces Fund, which is being used for renovation of the historic Etherington House.
Also tune in for coverage on the inaugural Welcome to Kingston Day, a new car-sharing pilot progam launching next year, and more!
