We are entering Week 4 of an ongoing strike at Canada Post, and we’ve seen the real-life consequences of such an inconvenience. For example, Canadian Blood Services handles swab kits for stem cells, an incredibly important tool for plastic anemia patients who are in need of a matching donor. Grade 6 student Hillary McKibbin is dealing with that rare scenario – a blood condition that takes shape when your bone marrow cannot make enough new blood cells for your body to work normally. And while things appear positive in her case, this dispute has made a game-changing process for other patients extremely tough to operate. Hillary, along with her mother Kelly, joins Andrew Pinsent on CFRA Live.
