BC Today, Nov. 20: Storm aftermath | Transgender Day of Remembrance | Carbon tax alternatives

On Wednesday's show: -- Tens of thousands of people, mostly on Vancouver Island, are still without power after hurricane-force wind gusts from a 'bomb cyclone' system blasted southwest B.C. overnight and into Wednesday. We hear the latest updates. -- On Transgender Day of Remembrance, we ask our audience to let us know who they are thinking of, and what support trans people need in this province. -- After 12:30 p.m., the carbon tax has become a hot-button issue in both federal and provincial politics. With the United Nations Climate Change conference continuing in Baku this week, we discuss the pros, cons and alternatives to a carbon tax.
