Soldiers from northern Ontario contributed a great deal to the Second World War but little has been written specifically about them. A new book titled "Untold: Northeastern Ontario's Military Past, Volume 2" helps Ontario readers understand the sacrifices. Co-author Dieter K. Buse, a former Royal Canadian Air Force drill instructor, recounts some memorable stories about what soldiers were responsible for and what they endured. Trucking in Ontario remains a difficult industry for women to break into. Trucker Shelley Uvanile-Hesch talks to Jeyan Jeganathan about the barriers to entry and her advocacy work as head of the Women's Trucking Federation of Canada.
