In this rebroadcast of Civically Speaking, a spoken word show devoted to civic issues hosted by Lenore Swystun on CFCR.ca 90.5 FM, Melanie Morrison comes on to discuss an App she recently developed called the BetterCart.ca  
Melanie Morrison, by day, a Social Psychology Professor, spends much time during her evenings and weekends, developing an App to help folks find the best, most affordable deals on groceries. 

Melanie shares her story about how she went from being a single mom of three kids going to University trying to make ends meet, to developing an app to help make such ends meet.

Melanie recently won a tech start-up competition, where she pitched her idea to Co.Labs, Saskatchewan's first technology incubator. Co.Labs is devoted to providing early-stage technology startups and entrepreneurs with support and mentorship that help foster company growth and success.

Saskatchewan is quickly becoming known for its tech startups, and Melanie helps inspire the notion - that anyone - including someone with little 'tech skills' but with great ideas - can find much support in Saskatchewan.

On Civically Speaking we discuss how local tech sectors are critical to our civic fabric. Tune in to this show and be inspired. And, be sure to share this show with others. And, please be support community radio stations like cfcr.ca 90.5 FM that make shows like this possible.

Civically Speaking- Saskatoon Saskatchewan's #1 show about civic issues.
