Patrice Dutil explores the 1870 Garnet Wolseley expedition to root out the first Riel rebellion in Manitoba with Ted Glenn, Professor of Public Administration at Humber College and the author of Embedded: Two Journalists, a Burlesque Star and the Expedition to Oust Louis Riel, published by Dundurn Press. Together, they discuss the reportage of Toronto-based newsmen Robert Cunningham and Molyneux St. John as well as the role played by Kate Ranoe, an actress and comedienne. All three were “embedded” with the Wolseley expedition and provided particularly distinctive coverage of the historic event. This podcast was produced by Jessica Schmidt.
