Pandemic Pandering Over Immunizing Indians (ep 236)

A western Canadian premier denounced by critics for bungling the province's COVID response has now come under fire for questionable comments about immunizing Indians. We're talking Manitoba, where Brian Pallister's gone on-record as saying that federal moves to ensure First Nations get vaccines would somehow leave less for everybody else...? Trust us: that's only mildly paraphrased. Joining host/producer Rick Harp to review the real rhetoric used by the premier are Ken Williams, assistant professor with the University of Alberta's department of drama, and Brock Pitawanakwat, Associate Professor of Indigenous Studies at York University. // CREDITS: Our theme is 'nesting' by birocratic.
