An Owen Sound high school student has been changing lives in the last couple of weeks. He entered a speech competition, with a story about his own sexual assault -- and that story is striking a chord. Last night, he delivered his speech to the Bluewater Board of Education and he says he wants his message heard by every school board in Ontario. We spoke to a professor at Lakehead University who's taking the idea of a "field trip" to the next level. Having just finished 10 days of hiking, paddling, and cycling with his students, he told us what that was like... and explained why it's important to get out of the classroom to learn. If you've left your summer planning till the last minute, you might be able to get some help from today's author on our books column. Lynn Holden made the case for you to travel to Canada's very own world heritage sites. Months after we all dropped our pandemic masks, they're back on many faces around Kingston these days -- but for a whole new reason. We heard more about how the smoke from distant wildfires is coming home to change everyday life here, in both big and little ways.
