Added 2019-09-15 02:30:20 +0000 UTCON THIS WEEK’S INDIGENOUS ROUNDTABLE:
Get ready for the not-so-amazing race to form Canada’s next government! That’s right: it’s federal election time from now until October 21. But will Indigenous interests factor much if at all into this election? We discuss the recent efforts by the Assembly of First Nations to make sure that happens.
Joining host/producer Rick Harp at the roundtable are Brock Pitawanakwat, Associate Professor of Indigenous Studies at York University and Ken Williams, assistant professor with the University of Alberta’s department of drama.
