  • #16 - North of Normal: Becoming A Northern Firefighting Family
    Mar 17 2026
    What does firefighting look like in a town where everyone is a volunteer? In Episode 16 of The Other Side of the Call, we travel to Fort Smith in Canada’s Northwest Territories to speak with longtime volunteer firefighter Jason and his wife Helen about life and emergency response in a northern community of just over 2,000 people. When the pager goes off in a place like Fort Smith, firefighters leave their jobs, their families, and whatever they were doing to respond to neighbours in crisis.

  • #15 - Hidden in Plain Sight: The Research Behind Military & First Responder Families in Canada

  • #14 - The Personal Price: Progress, Prevention, and the OPP
    Mar 3 2026
    In this episode, we sit down with Jason MacKenzie, the husband of OPP Constable Cindy MacKenzie, who died by suicide while serving. Rather than revisiting institutional failures of the past, this conversation focuses on institutional learning and progress. Jason reflects on the personal realities of loss, parenting, and survival, while also discussing recent outreach from the OPP and why this moment feels different from years prior. This is a forward-looking conversation about accountability, prevention, and the personal price families pay when systems evolve too slowly, and the impact that meaningful change can have when they finally do.
