S2 Ep31: Can Indigenous Representation Save Canadian Tourism?

Canada is known for its beautiful mountains, wild nature, cosmopolitan cities and more. But what’s lacking from our tourism is Indigenous representation. The National Post published an article earlier this year arguing that Canada’s “branding” as a place to visit is completely void of Indigenous culture, and that incorporating Indigenous culture would boost tourism and support Indigenous communities. We invited Ryan McMahon, host of Red Man Laughing and CANADALAND's Thunder Bay, on the podcast to help us delve into this discussion.
