From the Digital Box Set: This week, it’s our annual episode where we explore brands I admire. And in celebration of Canada’s 150th birthday in 2017, this year’s brands are all Canadian. We’ll look at what may be the most successful global retailer Canada’s ever built, a television pioneer worshipped and revered by generations of Canadians and a world-class brand that operates out of the smallest village in New Brunswick. We’ve certainly bred some amazing brands up here in the Great White North. Happy birthday, Canada. This is an archived episode that aired originally on May 11, 2017.

Paulina Cameron is a triple-threat: CEO of the Forum for Women Entrepreneurs, bestselling author of Canada 150 Women: Conversations with Leaders, Champions, and Luminaries, and a mother – among her many other accomplishments.

Andrea Sereda started off by insisting she isn't a rebel but by the end of this episode it's really clear she is not just a rebel, but a unicorn rebel. From helping people achieve sustainable weight management, to performing on Broadway: What can't she do? She lost 140 pounds, kept it off, and started a business to help others do the same. She has her Masters in Social Work, is a professional sign-language interpreter for theatre, attended Juilliard, and performed on Broadway. She's a rebel to her very core.

Wheeler and Ollie discuss the mysterious hairy beast that showed up unannounced in front of Yellowknife City Hall last week. And Pat Kane visits the Cabin to talk Dead North 2019!

This episode might be the strangest piece of Canadiana we've found yet: and warning, it's not suitable for children. First, we go deep down a rabbit hole to investigate Bear by Marian Engel, a novella that won the Governor-General's Literary Award decades before it became an internet meme—because it's all about lady/bear sex. Next, we explore first- and second-wave feminism and the lives of women in Canada during Bear's time.

How did Banff come to be? A look back at how Indigenous people were kicked off their land—and then how the national park was built by the forced labour of interned Ukrainian-Canadians. Skiing at Lake Louise will never feel the same again.

A new episode is coming soon! But before that happens, we need to shout out someone wonderful named Rosemary Brown.

Ah, dock life—a crackling fire and the sound of loons on the water. But where does cottage country come from? In one part of Ontario, we look at how the Chippewas of Kettle and Stony Point First Nation were pushed off their land to make way for cottages, a park and even an army base.

Bonus! Meet Susan Olivia Poole, the first Indigenous woman to receive a patent with an invention that has been sold all over the world. 

What we do really know about the history of black people in Canada? Sure, there's the Underground Railroad and the jazz prowess of Oscar Peterson—but what else? How about 200 years of slavery in Canada; the first race riot in North America; the false promise of “freedom and a farm”; or Birchtown, Nova Scotia, home to one of this country's first settlements of black people.

Bonus! Meet Abby Hoffman former Olympian and trailblazer.

Meet Elsa Gidlow and Roswell George Mills, creators of North America's first LGBTQ publication, Les Mouches Fantastiques.

Bonus! Meet Kenojuak Ashevak, the world-renowned and multi-award winning artist and first lady of Inuit Art. 

Bonus! Meet Beryl Potter, an early activist and advocate for rights of persons with disabilities who didn't take no for an answer. 

We dive into one of Canada's most-visited tourist destinations—and self-professed honeymoon capital of the world—Niagara Falls, Ontario. First, we explore the falls' geological formation and how they were divided between Canada and the United States. Next, all of the ways people have tried to make a buck off this natural wonder: from industrial polluters to daredevils in barrels to the wax museums of Clifton Hill. We also talk to some locals about what it's like to live there, and find out why the Maid of the Mist “legend” is so problematic.

Throughout 2017 SaskCulture has had the remarkable opportunity and privilege to build and strengthen relationships with a number of First Nation and Métis cultural partners in the province through our Canada 150 project, funded by Canadian Heritage, called Resilience & Respect: Canada 150 & Beyond.  Canada’s sesquicentennial was a starting point: an opportunity to reflect on the important work of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada and its 94 Calls to Action, to help ensure that Indigenous peoples are genuinely inspired to recognize positive change in Canada over the next 150 years. Join Kevin Power and his guests at a gathering held in Saskatoon on January 26, 2018.   This final event for Resilience and Respect: Canada 150 and Beyond is not the end of the partnership or its work. Instead, it marks the next step in a journey together toward a more meaningful, respectful and rewarding relationship – one that supports positive changes needed in communities and cultural organizations in this province.    ========================================== THIS EPISODE OF SASKSCAPES IS SPONSORED BY SASKCULTURE ======================================= SaskScapes is a podcast featuring the stories of arts, culture and heritage in Saskatchewan.

  In 2017, Canadians across the country have been planning how their communities would celebrate 150 years of Confederation.  Among those hundreds of events and projects came an idea initiated by Alberta artist Louis Lavoie. A dream to connect our country by creating the mural mosaics project. 150 communities, participated throughout the year, in creating their own murals made from hundreds of individually painted tiles.  Yorkton, Saskatchewan. was one of the participating communities and clearly that city couldn’t have been more proud of the result.  In this episode Kevin Power is joined by 6 guests, via telephone, who contributed to the  creation of the Yorkton mosaic.  In the end, Yorkton’s mural consisted of over 600 individually painted tiles. The links to the mural mosaic project can be found here,  as well as links to the city of Yorkton and the Godfrey Dean Art Gallery  ========================================== THIS EPISODE OF SASKSCAPES IS SPONSORED BY THE CITY OF YORKTON, SASKATCHEWAN.

This week's episode of Talking Radical Radio ends the year with a rebroadcast of an episode originally broadcast in July 2017. It offers a behind-the-scenes look at the bold Reoccupation that went to the very heart of the Canadian settler colonial project -- Parliament Hill itself -- and used ceremony to challenge and unsettle Canada's 150th anniversary celebrations. Freddy Stoneypoint, Summer-Harmony Twenish, Trycia Bazinet, Hamda Deria, and Elsa Hoover were among the organizers of and participants in the Reoccupation ceremony, and they talk about their experiences on the Hill and their understanding of the ongoing work of unsettling Canada. For a more detailed description of this episode, see here: http://talkingradical.ca/2017/12/26/trr-rebroadcast_canada_150/

We are at the end of The Amazing Race Canada for another season, and Colin and Rossi are back to break down every moment of action. We compare this finale, as well as the new winners to past seasons. There were waterfalls, rickshaws, scaling skyscrapers, and all the other great challenges you associate with Canadians. While Rossi picks out all of the most entertaining moments on screen, Colin was so distracted by finally being able to take part in the on screen polls to really care about what  was happening  in each challenge.  Be sure to listen to find out which polls Colin was able to manipulate on screen, as well as how he succeeded in making the West Coast look like a bunch of wimps. We also break down some of the best moments from the After The Race reunion show. Whether you loved the 5th season finale or just want to learn how to manipulate the system in on screen CTV polls, you must hear our final recap of the year.★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

We are one episode away from the finale of The Amazing Race Canada, and this is the episode that has it all. Drama, tears, fears, and Crokin-Curl! Colin and Rossi cover everything from the use of Alpaca's in Canada to the new hybrid sport of Crokicurl that has swept over at least 25% of those surveyed.  From there it's all about Korey finally emerging as a star, even if he was flirting with a random girl in a not-really-flirting kind of way. And are you afraid of cockroaches being poured all over your head? According to another recent survey more than half of Canadians, as well as 50% of our hosts this week share in that fear. The other 50% are too busy jumping trains to care. Download and listen to our recap now. We promise it will be the greatest experience you'll ever have until we see Alpaca's play Crokicurl.★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Holy Guacamole we are back to cover another double episode of The Amazing Race Canada. We return to Canada's capital of Ottawa for all the double U-Turn drama, farting horses, and fence building stories from Karen and Bert. Colin also finds out what the perceptions outside of Canada are on Mounties, which are apparently half way between corny and cool. In episode 2 we travel to Newfoundland, which as everyone knows is the funniest province in Canada. Through bad avocado jokes, plenty of cruel Canadian heckling, Ivana stealing the show by doing nothing, and the single most uncomfortable cry since opening night of The Notebook, we cover what may be the most entertaining two episodes of the season. This is the recap so good it has even been endorsed by future sitcom star Johnny Mustard, so download now.... or have your race partner download instead.★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

From uninteresting camping setups to uninteresting coffee runs to BOB the Bridge to yet another Detour full of innuendos, the Amazing Race Canada Season 5 episode 3 had it all..... or did it? The major drama of the week is all about the  express passes. We debate the use (and in one case lack of use) of every express pass, while also debating whether this episode is incredibly boring or unpredictable enough to make it entertaining. And just what happened to the interactive polls and #Canada150 challenges this week? It's all here in our weekly coverage that gets the seal of approval from Gassy Jack, Bob the Bridge and Camper James.★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Colin and Rossi are back and much more impressed with week two of The Amazing Race Canada season 5. We talk all about the Fort McMurray location, whether Team Give'r is still amazing or starting to become too much, Karen overshadowing her husband Dirt Gritie, the ever changing Chevy vehicle of the week, and all the bad extras flubbing their spots.

We begin our coverage on The Amazing Race Canada with the premiere of season 5. Colin is joined once again by Rossi to talk about all the things that we liked, loved and were disappointed with in the premiere. We go over every team on the race including the super relaxed/super hyperactive Team Give'r. We debate whether Andrea and Ebonie taking a penalty was a good move or bad move. We also talk about how boring the challenges were on this episode, scratch our heads at what a Canada150 challenge really is, and drop more awkward product placement than you actually hear on the race. From butt slides to bad morse code to the legend of Gassy Jack, we talk about it all in this spectacularly entertaining recap of a spectacularly average season premiere!★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

With resistance to Canada150, Indigenous women calling out a reporter at a press conference, and the Proud Boys disrupting a Mi'kmaq ceremony in Halifax, the way people talk about our colonial history is changing. While Indigenous people demand respect, journalists like the National Post's John Robson think the insults are just too much.   NDP MP Romeo Saganash plagiarized co-host Erica Violet Lee's work in an op-ed for the Globe and Mail.   With Omar Khadr reportedly getting an apology and a settlement of $10.5 million from the Canadian government after nearly a decade in Guantanamo Bay, politicians are twisting the narrative, and a columnist wonders why Khadr can't just move on.   Erica's blog: Moontime Warrior Erica's Twitter: @ericavioletleeSupport CANADALAND: https://canadaland.com/joinSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Finally, the CBC is scoring some of that sweet Canada150 cash to commission programming it should probably already be making with the $1-billion it receives annually, and J.J.

CBC's miniseries “The Story of Us,” is only two episodes in, but manages to upset literally everyone (except Joseph Boyden).

The Globe and Mail issues Leah McLaren a gag order, following the coded memo sent out to staff. Following McGill's brand-sensitive lead, Ryerson University issues an apology for a short documentary about poverty in Niagara Falls, made by its students.   An access-to-information request made by VICE reveals that CSIS has been secretly watching and reporting on events at the Standing Rock pipeline protests.
