Whatever happened to … ? We look back at three conversations from the past year

As 2020 tumbles towards 2021, we revisit three of our conversations from the past year to find out what's been happening when it comes to performative brands, the hotel business, and what it's been like to find a job in the pandemic economy.

The Cost of Living checks in with three people we've talked to over the course of the last year — about what the coronavirus pandemic has meant for school graduates, how the hotel industry has kept up with the past year, and whether brand names have done enough when it comes to movements like Black Lives Matter.

As 2020 tumbles towards 2021, we revisit three of our conversations from the past year to find out what's been happening since.

  • The Cost of Living ❤s money — how it makes (or breaks) us.
    Catch us Sundays on CBC Radio One at 12:00 p.m. (12:30 p.m. NT).
    We also repeat the following Tuesday at 11:30 a.m. in most provinces.

First, host Paul Haavardsrud talks with Rochelle Roberts — who we spoke with in June about performative brands and the Black Lives Matter movement.

Then we look to the hotel business, checking-in with Deepak Ruparell, head of the Silver Hotel Group, to find out how the lodging business has held up since April.

And what path has life taken for a college graduate who finished school just as a pandemic was putting everything on hold? Eight months later, we hear from Dylan Jones in the Northwest Territories.
