Ep. 70: Tempest in a Teepee on Parliament Hill; Pressure at the Press Gallery

This week... tempest in a teepee: Indigenous people fight to set up a ceremonial camp on Parliament Hill for Canada Day. Did their actions shine a light on the controversy over Canada 150—or simply stoke the flames of a backlash? We also explore how a press conference meant to educate reporters on why that teepee went up seemingly mutated into a media lecture on how Indigenous people ought to conduct themselves. At the roundtable this week are Kenneth Williams, an assistant professor with the University of Alberta's department of drama, plus Lakota activist and communications professional Taté Walker.
