Sparse snowpack levels across B.C. are raising fears of severe drought this year. We speak with B.C.'s Minister of Land, Water, and Resource Stewardship Nathan Cullen, Regional Chief Terry Teegee, B.C. Assembly of First Nations, and Erica Gies, author of "Water Always Wins", independent journalist and National Geographic Explorer. We meet Charlie, an assistance dog in training, and talk with Pacific Assistance Dogs Society's Tara Doherty, Director of Communications, about how certified assistance dogs provide support to people with disabilities.
