Wheelchair Users
With different reasons for using a wheelchair we meet Canadians from all across the country who tell us about what it's like to be a wheelchair user.
Tourette Syndrome
Often mocked and stigmatized for their disability, our participants with Tourette syndrome answer questions about what life is like living with what is often mistakenly called "the swearing disease".
Visual Impairment
From all walks of life, the visually impaired we meet in this episode answer questions about what it is like to navigate the world without sight and the answers are very enlightening.
Autism
People with high-functioning autism face stigma and judgement, often because their disability is "invisible"-showing no outward signs.
Limb Differences
Through accident, illness or genetics, people with limb differences learn to adapt and be resilient. Because their disability is so visible, they receive a lot of attention.
Little People
Little People are a highly visible group who face a great deal of social stigma and curiosity. In this episode, they explain what it's like to live in a world that sees them as "disabled".
Down Syndrome
A genetic disorder causes Down syndrome and the Canadians we meet in this episode give us a heart-warming and candid view into the lives of people with Down syndrome.
Facial Difference
For many with facial difference, life can be very hard. Often with no other disability, they still face discrimination and prejudice because of the way they look.

Married at First Sight
Married at First Sight is an extreme social experiment that follows six brave singles yearning for a life-long partnership as they agree to a provocative proposal: getting legally married to a complete stranger the moment they first meet. Four specialists – sexologist, Dr. Logan Levkoff; psychologist, Dr. Joseph Cilona; sociologist, Dr. Pepper Schwartz; and spiritual advisor, Greg Epstein – create what they believe are three perfect couples, based on scientific matchmaking. The couples will not meet until they walk down the aisle and see each other face-to-face, for the first time, at the altar. Over the course of several weeks, episodes capture each couple's journey as they go from wedding, to honeymoon, to early nesting, to the daily struggle of working on their marriage. After several weeks together, each couple must make a decision: do they remain together or decide to divorce?
