“I think it would be a real shame if we got rid of Harper at the federal level and then we brought in somebody who wants to take our province in a similar direction,” Wab Kinew tells Andray and Desmond.
Kinew is stepping into politics after years in the public eye as a journalist, author, rapper and First Nations community leader.
He talks about what he wants to accomplish in politics that he couldn’t do in his previous roles. He also discusses ways to address the systemic racism in Winnipeg and Canada at large.
Wab is seeking the nomination for the provincial NDP for the Fort Rouge riding in Winnipeg.
FULL DISCLOSURE: Andray and Wab are both board members of Canadian Journalists for Free Expression.
