Michelle LeClair, Vice-President of Métis Nation – Saskatchewan, joins Evan to discuss the effort that has gone into bringing bison back to Batoche, the cultural significance these animals hold, and how the herd will be cared for in the coming years.

Host Matt LeMay recently got to spend time filming a documentary with an amazing group of Métis musicians as they were recording an album of new and traditional songs at the Tragically Hip's Bathouse studio, just outside Kingston, Ontario. Among the musicians there were two of the most in demand fiddlers right now and our guests on this episode:Alicia Blore is Toronto based, with roots in Manitoba. She played at the most recent swearing in of Prime Minister Trudeau and his cabinet, and was part of the live tribute to fiddle master John Arcand at Batoche in 2023, among her many other accomplishments. Brianna Lizotte is from Alberta and also a John Arcand protogé. Last year she played for Pope Francis at the Vatican during the visit of Canadian Indigenous groups seeking an apology from the pope for the harm inflicted on children at church run Residential schools. Bathouse studio is a lovely old 19th century Inn on Lake Ontario. Stone walls, hardwood floors covered in persian carpets, and a studio jam-packed with decades of Hip memorabilia. In that environment, working with the Tragically Hip engineer Niles Spencer, the music just flowed.At the end of the second day of recording, LeMay sat down with Lizotte and Blore in the Hips cozy upstairs rehearsal studio to talk about where Métis fiddling came from, where it is today and where it's headed.Many of the songs you'll hear in this episode were performed by Blore and Lizotte along with fellow Métis musicians Alyssa Delbaere-Sawchuk, Danton Delbaere-Sawchuk and Liam Blore For more on the work of the MNC, visit metisnation.ca

In a week where the Manitoba government announced the historic decision that it would formally recognise Métis resistance leader Louis Riel as the province's honorary first Premier, it seems fitting that our latest episode is called "One Nation, Many Leaders."In this episode we're focusing on one specific leader, Métis National Council President Cassidy Caron, two years after she became the first female elected female elected leader of the MNC. In this thoughtful, lively conversation, host Matt Lemay and Caron talk about her meteoric rise to the MNC presidency in her late twenties and the path that took her there. They also get into her childhood in Rossland, BC, the family who grounded her in Métis traditions, her family's deep roots in historic Métis communities of Batoche and St. Louis, Saskatchewan, and those who mentored and continue to advice her in her role as leader, including the acclaimed Métis author Maria Campbell and a group of Kookums who she continues to talk with on a regular basis. They also get into highlights of her time in office, including the Papal visit at the Vatican with Residential School survivors, the ongoing issue of governments recognizing those Métis Residential School survivors, Métis self-government agreements with the federal government and more.Host Matt LeMay is a citizen of the Métis Nation of Ontario, with roots in the Red River, Drummond Island and Penetanguishene. He is a documentary film-maker and co-founder of Indigenous Geographic. Our theme music is "Harry Daniels" by Métis fiddler John Arcand."One Nation, Many Stories" is produced by the Métis National Council, and David McGuffin of Explore Podcast Productions.For more on the work of the Métis National Council, visit metisnation.ca

Useful for running, cleaning, cooking, organizing teacher resources and writing report cards (I'm a Kindergarten teacher)! I will be celebrating St Patrick's Day by playing my harp and listening to more inspiring tunes (a la the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast). Thanks for sharing! Go raibh maith agat!" Pronunciation: guh ruh mah a - gut Dennis O'Brien replied: "I listen while working on/planning my Dungeons & Dragons game for the week. On St. Patrick's Day I am cooking a meal for my wife's family  -  a tradition since we first started dating. We will also listen to the Dropkick Murphys concerts from years past, if they don't have one live on YouTube. We will be singing along  -  my wife's Irish born grandmother can't make it this year, but we WILL be making a phone call to far off Minnesota." Stacia Ahlfeld replied: "We'll probably be doing school while listening. My kids like Irish and Celtic music as much as me. I am hoping to go to a nearby town's St. Patrick's Day parade. The town's name is Ireland, so they kind of blow it up. We'll probably continue to listen to music, and I might tell some stories."

Not much happened this year beyond a few deaths and births, the return of Gabriel Dumont to Batoche, the first Lac Ste Anne pilgrimage and the tragic Quebec City rock slide that killed 40 people.

Guillaume a toujours été fasciné par les histoires d'objets qui ont atterri dans des endroits improbables, que ce soit une bague perdue pendant plusieurs années en Italie ou un œuf de Fabergé retrouvé dans un marché aux puces aux États-Unis. Et tant qu'à y être, on fait la lumière sur le mystère de la célèbre cloche de Batoche.

(Recording date: May 16, 2022) The Eager Beaver Pod asks its guests if they're willing to provide an extended interview, so that we may better get to know them/what makes them tick. When they agree, we package it together and present to you as part of this series. This week's guest, Cassidy Caron, is an extremely impressive Métis woman with roots in the historic Métis communities of Batoche and St. Louis, Saskatchewan. She grew up closely connected to her Métis traditions, heritage and culture and is driven by her family and community values of respect, honesty, collaboration and responsibility. In September of 2021, she became the first elected woman to hold the office of President of the Métis National Council, replacing Clément Chartier who had held the position since 2003. We enjoy an extensive discussion during which we touch upon her path to becoming President of the MNC, her recent visit to the Vatican to urge the Pope to deliver an apology, and discuss spreading not only tragic but positive and uplifting news from the Métis community. Cassidy has a fresh perspective combined with a fierce determination. We think she's exactly what the movement needs. We hope you'll agree. _____ Because we believe that Democracy Is Something You Do...

She is a member of the Métis Nation and her ancestral people are from Batoche, SK. She is married to Kukpi7 (Chief) Frank Antoine of the Bonaparte Indian Band of Cache Creek. They have three beautiful children: Séquoia, Maya, and Riel. Their youngest, Riel, recently underwent cancer treatment over the past two years at BC Children's hospital, and in this podcast, she talks about her fears and how her son's journey deepened her faith is Christ. Bonnie's sports-minded family spends a lot of time in the rinks and on the field. She believes that sports are a therapeutic way to heal, and sports have allowed her to remain focused most of her life. Bonnie is a passionate teacher with the Francophone School District of BC, teaching grade six through eight. She is passionate about Aboriginal Education and has previously been the District Resource Teacher for many years. In this episode, Bonnie and Chris talk about what it looks like to love our community well.

The battle of Batoche was raging on this day back in in 1885. To learn more about the legacy of the battle in the history of Canada's Metis peoples we spoke with historian Laurence Barkwell, author of "1885: The Militia of the Metis Liberation Movement".

My thoughts on the modified school year that is new to my family, the massive amount of sudden friend requests on social media, Walking with Our Sisters in Batoche, and renting movies from Calgary Queer Arts.  I also share my thoughts on yet another injustice-us that Indigenous people have to experience.

The Mystery of the Bell traces the history of the “Bell of Batoche,” an item stolen by Ontario soldiers in the 1885 North-west Rebellion. First Nations people cherish the bell and until last year its whereabouts were completely unknown. In the program, Mark Starowicz, Executive Director of Documentary Programming at the CBC, and producer Wayne Chong, explore the timeline of events leading to the bell’s repatriation last summer in Batoche, Saskatchewan. In this clip, Canada’s History chatted with Starowicz, a twenty-five-year industry veteran who has received numerous accolades for his work on Canadian television. He is also the Creator and Executive Producer of Canada: A People’s History, for which he received the Pierre Berton Award (now known as the Governor General History Award for Popular Media) in 2001. “We want to tell the remarkable story of this bell, and what its roots are,” said Starowicz. “We trace how it was stolen, who had it and the various identities it has assumed, the political battle for it, right up to the current day.” The bell was taken as a war prize during the Battle of Batoche — one of the final conflicts in the North-west Rebellion. The battle forced the surrender of Louis Riel, and he was executed later that year. The relic eventually turned up in Millbrook, Ontario in the 1930s hanging in a fire hall. After numerous diplomatic attempts by the Metis community, the bell was stolen in 1991 — not to be seen in public again until 2013 at a parade in Batoche, Saskatchewan. What happened in the interim is the subject of much debate and controversy. “It's a terrific detective story, a journey through Canadian history,” said Starowicz. “It’s a Canadian Da Vinci code.”

Todd Lamirande had been at APTN for only a year when he transferred to BC to open the Vancouver bureau – located in his one bedroom apartment. Shortly thereafter, the police illegally seized his car and his tapes. It was a precarious start, but so began an 18-year career at APTN, and Lamirande – who never wanted to work in television –began his ascent, becoming one of the best known on air personalities at APTN. Lamirande also tells how he unravelled the mystery behind the missing Bell of Batoche. Or did he?

In 1885 an alliance of Metis and First Nations rebel against the Canadian government seeking to incorporate what would become the province of Saskatchewan. The rebels (or heroes to some) are forced into a final last stand at Batoche in May.

In this episode we hear a hilarious story of struggle as Kevin McKenzie sets out on a mission to head to Batoche for Métis Days - a yearly cultural celebration that takes place yearly, in the dead of summer, in beautiful Batoche, SK. Here we hear about being chased by rez dogs, bad boot choices and a stubborness & search for culture & place that knows no boundaries. This charming & lighthearted story will have you smiling, scratching your head & will probably make you want to pick up a stranger as they walk down the highway the next time you pass one.

Maryse Jobin a demandé à Rose-Marie Carey, qui supervise les activités d’interprétation du Lieu historique de Batoche, de nous parler de son histoire et pourquoi elle y est si attachée.

Documentary director Mark Starowicz says the Bell of Batoche became one of the most sought-after, legendary artifacts in Canadian history.
