Why Colten Boushie’s story still matters 10 years after his death

from Unreserved

“It encapsulated all of the injustice that has been done to Indigenous people across Canada.” 10 years ago, Colten Boushie’s death sent shockwaves across Canada and unearthed deep tensions rooted in colonization and systemic racism. Rosanna speaks with the Baptiste family about their healing journey – Colten’s mother, Debbie, fighting for justice, his brother, William, speaking truth to stereotypes, and his uncle Alvin, working through culture and ceremony to prevent future tragedies. We also hear from the family’s lawyer, Eleanore Sunchild, who takes us back to the night Colten died and explains why the details of his death should still matter to Canadians.
