The tragic death of a 17-year old UBC student from Ontario in Lynn Canyon on Sunday renewed calls for exercising caution, especially when you don't know the terrain. We speak with Dwayne Derban, assistant fire chief of the District of North Vancouver District Fire and Rescue Services about what happened, and what students and parents need to know.

Then, Canada has imposed a 100 per cent tariff on Chinese electric vehicles. We're joined by Werner Antweiler, associate professor, UBC.'s Sauder School of Business, to discuss the economic and political ramifications.

Finally, a new TD Bank survey finds most parents are financially supporting their kids in post-secondary — and while students say they have a budget, many wish they knew more about financial planning. Meranda Hamilton, senior manager of youth and student banking at TD Bank, and Murray Baker, Manager of financial empowerment at the Family Services of Greater Vancouver, join host Michelle Eliot to talk about these issues.
