About this episode

0:00 | Ryan reflects on "who we are" as residents of Canada while the number of unmarked and mass graves at former Indian Residential Schools mount, and attacks on racialized women escalate across the country. 

15:20 | Edmonton Two Spirit Society's Jeffery Chalifoux explains how traditional Indigenous acceptance of gender diversity was severely damaged, fragmented, or even lost due to colonialism—and how it's now being reclaimed. 

37:43 | A roundtable on service costs being passed from the Alberta Government onto the province's municipalities, making the local governments the bad guy. City of Brooks Mayor Barry Morishita, Town of Okotoks Councillor Tanya Thorn and Village of Hythe Mayor Brian Peterson explain the very dire impacts to the finances of Albertan municipalities.  

1:43:02 | Trash Talk courtesy of our pals at Local Waste.
