Canada vs. USA // Future of Women's Health

It's the most anticipated international hockey showdown in 15 years. When Canada and the U.S.A. clash in the 4 Nations Face-Off final in Boston, they'll be fighting for more than a gold medal. We kick off this episode with a perspective check on what's at stake. Later in the show (23:00), we shine a spotlight on life-changing (and life-saving) research advancements in women's health. 

2:25 | But first...Chris LaBossiere's wearing a special jersey at TD Garden for the big game. The president of the Juno Beach Centre talks about the price of freedom, why it matters, and a little bit about hockey.
