THE LINK Listen to the first part of the program The Link March 12, 2021 Hour 1... WOMEN'S FASHION: Over the years, women's fashion has changed dramatically and so has what and how much we see of women's bodies. It's that relationship between fashion and form that's being explored in a new exhibit at the McCord Museum in Montreal, Quebec. Carmel Kilkenny, sitting in for Marc Montgomery, spoke with Cynthia Cooper, the curator of the exhibit. GEETA'S CHOICE: Today's book selections cater to the under-12 crowd. Our book reviewer, Geeta Nadkarni, has chosen three books that have all been in print for more than 20 years but are still wonderful for the younger reader. ASK NICK: When you're immigrating to Canada, there are questions you may have, or even questions you don't think of until you are facing a particular situation. That's where our immigration answer man Naeem Noorani, Aka Nick, comes in. He is the publisher of The Canadian Immigrant Magazine and the author of Arrival Survival Canada. In this conversation from August, Nick talks about how to land a job in Canada. ON THIS DAY: On this day in 1972, the man known as "Mr. Hockey" - Gordie Howe, decided to hang up his skates. His professional career in ice hockey, at that point, stretched back an extraordinary quarter-century. As it turned out, it wasn't over, even then! Jim Craig takes a look back at Gordie Howe and his career in his On This Day column . SPORTS WRAP: The Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race crowned it's winner today in Nome, Alaska. Our Olympic focus is 400 meter runner Tyler Christopher. And in European football, Liverpool advanced in the UEFA Champions League. Hour 2... CLIMATE CHANGE: A major new report says all parts of Canada are already feeling the effects of climate change and it's time to look at ways to adapt. The report examines changes in such things as agriculture, water, weather, power generation and the kind of impact that may have. RCI's Lynn Desjardins looked into the story. STEVE 911: First generation immigrants come to Canada with a strong sense of who they are and where they came from. But those traditions and beliefs can get a little murky for the next generation. Our reporter in Toronto, Oussayma Canbarieh, tells us about "Steve 911", a play that explores some of the conflict that can arise between first and second generation Arab-Canadians. ASK NICK: Our immigration answer man Naeem Noorani, Aka Nick, is back in this second hour of The Link with answer to some of the questions from people wanting to immigrate to Canada. In this re-run from last summer, Nick talks about how to find a job in Canada when you're searching from abroad. INDO-CANADIAN REPORT: The Canadian company that makes the Blackberry mobile phone and text unit is running into trouble with the authorities in India. The Indian Government's department of telecommunications wants to be able to monitor text messages sent through the popular device and access to the encrypted codes Blackberry uses. RCI's David Blair is sitting in for Wojtek Gwiazda this week and he tells us about security concerns linked to Blackberry use in India. SPORTS WRAP: The Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race crowned it's winner today in Nome, Alaska. Our Olympic Focus is 400 meter runner, Tyler Christopher.
