Students share international dishes to help raise funds and awareness for refugee program

On today’s show, CHMA’s Aiko Aguilar takes us to a night of international cuisine at Mount Allison, all to raise funds for the Student Refugee Program, which has sponsored two refugee students in the past two years. Aguilar speaks with organizers and some of the volunteer chefs that provided the international fare for the event.

Plus in local council news, Tantramar council met briefly on Monday to approve an agreement and construction contract for work on a replacement aboiteau to empty into the Tantramar River. The aboiteau is owned by the province, and the replacement project has been split in two parts due to limits on provincial funding this year.
