Warrior Life Pam Palmater

In today's podcast, we talk to Cree media expert, anchor, journalist, filmmaker, and podcaster, Rick Harp. Rick is a member of Peter Ballantyne Cree Nation in northern Saskatchewan.

Rick has his own podcast called Media Indigena - the very first podcast I ever listened to or followed. I was even a guest panelist on his podcast years back.
https://mediaindigena.com

You can hear Rick on APTN's National News Brief which provides daily updates on what's making headlines in Indigenous country in Canada.

Today's podcast episode is the recording of my LIVE Q&A event on YouTube with some of my favorite Indigenous rights advocates talking about the Supreme Court of Canada (SCC) decision on the constitutionality of the federal government's C-92 Indigenous Child & Family legislation.

Joining me to answer all of the viewers questions were Dr. Cindy Blackstock (Gitksan), Mary Teegee (Gitksan & Carrier) and Naiomi Metallic (Mi'kmaq). They are all experts in Indigenous child and family issues.
