Ep 2The Newfoundlander: Chapter 2
This is chapter 2 of a mini series. To listen to all episodes, become a supporter at https://canadaland.com/joinWhen Newfoundland joined Canada as the tenth province in 1949, both the new province and the federal government neglected to mention in their terms of union that any indigenous people lived there. That meant Canada had no legal obligations to Mi’kmaq or Innu under the Indian Act. So First Nations peoples there were left out.Over the decades, Mi’kmaq on the island fought for official recognition. Following the creation of Miawpukek First Nation (Conne River) in the early 1980s, the federal government finally agreed in the 2000s to recognize Mi’lkmaq in Central and Western Newfoundland, The Qalipu Mi’kmaq First Nation was formed. More than 100,000 people applied to join the new band, leading many to question the authenticity of those claims. Justin speaks with experts and Qalipu community leaders to figure out how the community defines who is or isn’t Mi’kmaq. He wants to know because he and his family enrolled with Qalipu, but as Justin learned more about his ancestry, he began to question whether that claim was legitimate.And if that claim wasn’t legitimate, what would that mean for the thousands of other Qalipu members?

Ep 934The Aquanaut
Jill Heinerth is one of the most accomplished aquanauts in the world. With over 8500 dives, she is hired by some of the most notable names in film and television, from David Suzuki, to James Cameron. But her life isn’t all about shooting epic underwater scenes for the big screen, a lot of her life is doing research in underwater caves, looking at organisms that few have ever seen before. She does this as part of scientific research that leads to groundbreaking medical discoveries, with applications for AIDS, breast cancer, and even COVID. These dives are dangerous though, and each time she goes under, could be her last.Host: Jesse Brown Credits: Tristan Capacchione (Audio Editor and Technical Producer), Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer), Annette Ejiofor (Managing Editor), Karyn Pugliese (Editor-in-Chief)Further reading: Official website — Jill HeinerthExplorer-in-Residence — Royal Canadian Geographical Society'I’m not afraid of dying': Cave diver's latest obsession is underneath the Ottawa River — Ottawa CitizenAdditional music by Tristan Capacchione and Audio NetworkSponsors: The Toronto Symphony Orchestra, Article, Athletic GreensIf you value this podcast, support us!

Ep 932The Newfoundlander: Chapter 1
This is chapter 1 of a mini series. To listen to all episodes, become a supporter at https://canadaland.com/joinIn 2001, 9/11 forced airplanes from all over the world to suddenly land in Newfoundland. As communities responded to the crisis and welcomed people into their homes, there was a chance encounter between a Rabbi from England and an elderly person from Gander, Newfoundland: Edward Brake, grandfather of reporter Justin Brake.Edward told the Rabbi that he was a Holocaust survivor and had suppressed his Jewish identity his whole life. But now, he said, it was time to share his story before it was lost forever. How could the entire Brake family be unaware of this history? If the story is true, what does that mean for Justin? Justin sets off on a quest, speaking to family and digging through provincial archives in search of answers.Host: Jesse Brown Credits: Justin Brake (Writer & Reporter), Tristan Capacchione (Audio Editor and Technical Producer), Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer), Annette Ejiofor (Managing Editor), Karyn Pugliese (Editor-in-Chief)Further reading: The Day the World Came to Town — HarperCollins PublishersMeet the rabbi who got stranded in Newfoundland on 9/11 — Canadian Jewish NewsAdditional music by Audio NetworkSponsors: Elijah Craig, Athletic Greens, King’s UniversityIf you value this podcast, support us!

Ep 24(Détours) Les frais de scolarité et les solitudes
Le gouvernement caquiste du Québec a récemment proposé une nouvelle mesure qui, selon le premier ministre François Legault, protégera la langue française. Cette mesure consiste à augmenter les frais de scolarité pour les personnes non-québécoises souhaitant étudier dans une université au Québec. Comme cette hausse aurait certainement un impact sur les universités anglophones qui accueillent un grand nombre d’étudiant.es de l'extérieur de la province, les médias à travers le pays ont rapidement exprimé leur inquiétude. Andrew Parkin, directeur général de l'Environics Institute, se joint à Emilie pour discuter de la façon dont cette nouvelle mesure influence la perception du Québec par le reste du Canada. Andrew nous offre également un aperçu d'une nouvelle enquête par l’Environics Institute et l’Initiative du Siècle qui démontre que les attitudes envers l'immigration sont en train de changer parmi les Canadiens. Quebec's CAQ government recently proposed a new measure which, according to Premier François Legault, will protect the French language. The measure involves raising tuition fees for non-Quebecers wishing to study at a university in Quebec. As this increase would certainly have an impact on English-language universities, which welcome a large number of students from outside the province, media outlets across the country were quick to express their concern. Andrew Parkin, Executive Director of the Environics Institute, joins Emilie to discuss how this new measure affects the rest of Canada's perception of Quebec. Andrew also provides an overview of a new study by the Environics Institute and the Century Initiative, which shows that attitudes towards immigration are changing among Canadians.Animation: Emilie NicolasGénérique: Nancy Pettinicchio (Production), Tristan Capacchione (Production technique), Karyn Pugliese (Rédactrice en chef)Coanimation: Andrew ParkinPour en savoir plus :Tarifs pour les étudiants non résidents : Québec garde le cap, malgré la grogne – Radio-CanadaSarah Jama expulsée du caucus : soutien des citoyens, divisions au NPD – Radio-CanadaSarah Jama sur XDoug Ford sur X Si vous appréciez ce podcast, soutenez-nous !

Ep 928How Connie Walker Won
EAward-winning podcaster Connie Walker joins Jesse in studio to talk about the problems and racism she faced at the CBC, including the pushback she received when trying to tell stories about Indigenous women.

She also created the hit podcast series Missing & Murdered which, despite its success, was canceled after two seasons. She remains committed to telling those stories, making sure that they are more than just footnotes in Canadian history, with her work on the series Stolen, at Gimlet Media, for which she recently won a Pulitzer Prize and a Peabody award.Host: Jesse Brown Credits: Tristan Capacchione (Audio Editor and Technical Producer), Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer), Annette Ejiofor (Managing Editor), Karyn Pugliese (Editor-in-Chief)Further Listening: Missing & Murdered, Season 1, Season 2 — CBCStolen — SpotifySponsors: Elijah Craig, ArticleIf you value this podcast, support us!

Ep 926Who’s Behind a Fake Trudeau Sex Scandal?
Journalism in Canada is fighting for its life. Support Canadaland now.There’s a video on YouTube titled “Trudeau’s Alleged AFFAIR with Minister of AFFAIRS” that baselessly suggests the Prime Minister’s marriage fell apart due to a dalliance with a member of his cabinet. It has nearly half a million views.It’s the biggest hit for a channel called Street Politics Canada that, for more than a year, has been churning out anti-Trudeau content day after day. Street Politics claims to be an “independent news organization” based in Canada that is “clear and upfront” about their biases — but who are they, and why haven’t we heard of them before?On this week’s CANADALAND, host Jesse Brown, editor-in-chief Karyn Pugliese, and news editor Jonathan Goldsbie start pulling at a thread that ultimately takes their search to the other side of the world.Host: Jesse Brown Credits: Jonathan Goldsbie (News Editor), Tristan Capacchione (Audio Editor and Technical Producer), Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer), Annette Ejiofor (Managing Editor), Karyn Pugliese (Editor-in-Chief)Further Reading: Street Politics Canada — YouTube ChannelGeek Labs Holdings — LinkedIn ProfileAdditional music by Audio NetworkSponsors: Elijah Craig, Douglas, IndochinoIf you value this podcast, support us!

Ep 924Radical Reconciliation
In 2016, a 56 year old Saskatchewan farmer named Gerald Stanley shot an unarmed 22 year-old Indigenous trespasser named Coulten Boushie in the back of the head. Stanley was acquitted of murder in 2018 — and nobody was happy.Indigenous people considered the verdict proof positive of racial bias in the courts and a tacit declaration of open season on Indigenous people, including hunters, who take their lives in their hands when they exercise their treaty rights to access land.Meanwhile, rural settlers in Saskatchewan formed a facebook group called Farmers with Firearms to protest slow RCMP response times to what they considered a growing epidemic of rural crime. 8500 people joined, and the comment section was filled with anti-Indigenous rhetoric and vows to exercise vigilante justice on anyone who sets foot on their property.How do these two seemingly irreconcilable groups… reconcile?Some Saskatchewan farmers and Indigenous hunters are trying to figure that out. As you might expect, reconciliation isn’t always easy.Freelance reporter Kerry Benjoe brings you this true story from Saskatchewan, on this National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.Host: Jesse Brown Credits: Kerry Benjoe (Reporter), Tristan Capacchione (Audio Editor and Technical Producer), Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer), Annette Ejiofor (Managing Editor), Karyn Pugliese (Editor-in-Chief)Further Reading: The Treaty Land Sharing NetworkThe Gerald Stanley Case — The Canadian EncyclopediaSponsors: Article, Elijah Craig, RotmanIf you value this podcast, support us!

Ep 906Refugee Crisis On A Street Corner
What does Toronto’s response to the refugee crisis actually look like on the ground? Just across the street from the Canadaland office, a crisis unfolded: dozens of asylum seekers camping out as they were unable to get space in city shelters. Some had been there for weeks. After the federal government and the city both pledged that more support would be given to the asylum seekers, many were still there - being helped by a tenuous system of volunteers, donated goods, religious outreach and good samaritans.Join reporter Cherise Seucharan and Editor in Chief Karyn Pugliese as they follow asylum seekers at 129 Peter Street as they search for a place to spend the night.

Ep 900Ukraine vs Press Freedom
Last month the Globe and Mail reported that Anton Skyba, their photojournalist in Ukraine, applied to the Ukrainian government to have his press credentials renewed - and was denied. Ukrainian security services accused him of holding a Russian passport, demanded that he take a lie-detector test, and questioned whether his work as a journalist was aligned with Ukraine’s “national interests.”It was not an isolated incident. Last year, Ukrainian Security - the SBU - sent a list of names to their friends in the FBI. The SBU explained that it was a list of people who they suspected of spreading “fear and disinformation” about Ukraine through their Twitter accounts. They asked the FBI to get Twitter to remove these peoples’ accounts - to censor them. One of the names on that list was Aaron Mate, a Canadian journalist who works for the website GrayZone.Skyba and Mate talk to Canadaland about the state of press freedom in war-torn Ukraine.Host: Jesse BrownCredits: Sarah Lawrynuik (Reporter), Bruce Thorson (Senior Producer), Tristan Capacchione (Audio Editor and Technical Producer), Annette Ejiofor (Managing Editor), Karyn Pugliese (Editor in Chief)Further reading:Ukraine fails to renew media credentials for photographer working for The Globe - The Globe and MailIPI Tracker: media freedom alerts linked to Russia-Ukraine war - International Press InstituteSponsors: Oxio, Athletic Greens, SquarespaceIf you value this podcast, support us!

Le 9 juin dernier, la ministre responsable de l’habitation au Québec propose le projet de loi 31 qui, entre autres amendements, vise à permettre aux propriétaires de refuser une cession de bail sans motif sérieux. La cession de bail étant un outil important au Québec pour prévenir les augmentations de loyers déraisonnables, cette proposition du gouvernement caquiste a suscité un débat sur le droit au logement et la réalité des locataires. Emilie et Nora Loreto, co-animatrices de l’épisode, discutent également du meutre d’un adolescent franco-algérien par un policier à Nanterre, France lors d’un contrôle routier. Est-ce que les conversations politiques et médiatiques autour de la violence policière en France résonnent au Canada ?On June 9, Quebec's housing minister proposed Bill 31, which, among other amendments, would allow landlords to refuse a lease transfer without serious grounds. As lease transfers are an important tool in Quebec to prevent unreasonable rent increases, this proposal by the CAQ government has sparked a debate on housing rights and the reality of tenants. Emilie and episode co-host Nora Loreto also discuss the killing of a Franco-Algerian teenager by a police officer in Nanterre, France.
