On this episode of The New Reality, during the pandemic, essential workers have kept us safe – delivering our food, caring for our seniors and doing important and sometimes dangerous work. There are hundreds of thousands of workers who are undocumented in Canada. Now, as the COVID-19 vaccine starts to roll out, advocates are raising concerns about some essential workers being excluded because of their status. Krista Hessey reports for The New Reality. Death is never easy to talk about and, during the pandemic, it's been especially difficult without the ability to gather with friends and family for comfort. Enter Tom Morton, who is a funeral celebrant. He helps mourners confront the loss of loved ones in a positive way, to celebrate life, rather than try to avoid death. Dawna Friesen talked to Tom from his home in the Shetland Islands for The New Reality.
