Roy Green Show, Sept, 18th: Live Reaction in London before Queen's Funeral, Ukraine Military Success, Criticism Canadian Justice & Correctional System, Memories of a Palace Visit with Queen Elizabeth

Today’s podcast
From London, Ben O'Hara Byrne joins us just hours prior to the funeral for Queen Elizabeth II.
Ben O'Hara Byrne. Host of A Little More Conversation on the Corus radio network. Former London bureau chief for Global news.
Ukraine's Ambassador to Canada, Yulia Kovaliv joins us today. Ukraine's military has experienced great success pushing back the Russian army in recent weeks reclaiming thousands of square kilometers. Putin now threatens additional attacks. Does that mean battlefield nukes perhaps? U.S. president Joe Biden yesterday warned Putin "don't, don't, don't." What is the situation on the ground in Ukraine and what does Ukraine need most?  Germany has refused to ship decomissioned Leopard battle tanks to Ukraine and is being criticized for the decision.
Yulia Kovaliv. Ukraine Ambassador to Canada. The Ambassador will also share her country's message of condolence to Canada and Canadians on the death of Queen Elizabeth.
Canada's justice and correctional system facing criticism. From the Myles Sanderson murders in Saskatchewan and the fact an RCMP apprehension unit wasn't searching for Sanderson who with a long and violent criminal record was unlawfully at large beginning May of this year. - The sister of a murder victim who posted a photograph of the murderer who breached parole on social media was told by Correctional Service Canada to take down the photo. - Eustachio Gallese of Quebec who killed his wife in 2004 by beating her with a hammer before repeatedly stabbing her was sentenced to life in prison. After 15 years the convicted killer was paroled and ordered not to engage in relationships with women, although the board granted Gallese access to sex workers. A 22 year old Quebec City woman paid with her life for that decision as Gallese was charged with her murder. - There's also the issue of statutory release and what that really means.
Scott Newark. Former Alberta crown attorney, also former senior policy advisor to a federal Minister of Public Safety and executive director of the Canadian Police Association.
Ron Foxcroft is chairman of FOX40 Industries, a member of the Order of Canada and Honourary Colonel of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders Regiment of Canada, based in Hamilton. Corporal Nathan Cirillo who was shot and killed at the National War Memorial in Ottawa in the terror assault in 2014 was a member of the regiment. There was also a direct relationship between Queen Elizabeth and the Argylls. The Queen was made Colonel of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders of Canada in the spring of 1950 by her father, then King George VI while she was still a princess.
Ron Foxcroft and the commanding officer of the regiment were invited to visit Queen Elizabeth at her apartment at Buckingham Palace.
Ron Foxcroft. His memories of an extraordinary and meaningful meeting with Queen Elizabeth.
