Episode 10: The Program - Reprise

On the final episode of the podcast, host Pedro Chamale revisits conversations with most of the guest that have been interviewed. They tell us what we as Canadians can do to put our knowledge into action, as well as final words from the field. We also sit down with Min Sook Lee again and are left with inspiring words to carry forward. Composer Mishelle Cuttler and Pedro discuss the final song of the cycle; The Program Reprise gives us one last reflection on the creation of Made in Canada: an agricultural song cycle.

Where does our food come from? Who grows it? Who is nourished by it? Made in Canada: an agricultural podcast goes in-depth to illustrate the issues surrounding Canada’s migrant workers. We speak with activist, artist and experts on the Seasonal Agricultural Program in Canada and the injustices faced by the folks who ensure that Canadian stores, famers markets and plates have food. Working as a companion podcast to Made in Canada: an agricultural song cycle, we also go behind the mic for the creation of each song on the album week by week.

The podcast is written and narrated by Pedro Chamale, edited and co-produced by Kathleen Flaherty, and produced by Derek Chan and Howard Dai of rice & beans theatre. Made in Canada Song Cycle is possible by the support of The Canada Council for the Arts, The BC Arts Council, The Province of British Columbia, and the City of Vancouver.
