Indigenous people in Canada suffered a noticeably disproportionate number of fatal interactions with law enforcement in 2024. In one three-month period, 15 Indigenous people died either in custody or from direct interactions with police. It prompted the Assembly of First Nations and other Indigenous leaders to call for a national inquiry. It also inspired the news program, APTN Investigates, to pry into the factors that contribute to such an imbalance in the justice system. Their new three-part series looks into the strained relationship between Indigenous people and law enforcement. We'll talk with APTN Investigates team members about their findings. We'll also hear from Marvin Roberts, the Athabascan man who just settled a wrongful conviction lawsuit against the city of Fairbanks, Alaska for $11.5 million. Roberts is one of the men – all Native – deemed the "Fairbanks Four". They were all convicted and imprisoned for the 1997 murder of a teenager. They were released in 2015 after another man confessed to the crime. GUESTS Cullen Crozier (Gwich'in, Dene, and Métis), producer with APTN Investigates Tamara Pimental (Métis), video journalist with APTN Investigates Tom Fennario, video journalist with APTN Investigates Marvin Roberts (Athabascan), one of the "Fairbanks Four" Reilly Cosgrove, partner at Kramer and Cosgrove law firm

Saskatoon's Royal University hospital is the primary care facility for expecting mothers throughout the health region. But that esteemed reputation has come under fire. Within the last year, four women have come forward. They claim they were pressured into getting sterilized at the hospital's maternity ward. It was a practice used against Indigenous women right up until the 1970s. So it shouldn't be happening in this day and age, right? Cullen Crozier presents Against Their Will, originally aired Jan. 27, 2017. Saskatoon's Royal University hospital is the primary care facility for expecting mothers throughout the health region.

What is Indigenous journalism? How is APTN different than mainstream? Is APTN news fulfilling the vision of its creator? These are a few of the questions award-winning journalist Cullen Crozier tries to answer. We also talk about the construction of stories, and how the person with the camera and the microphone tries to create truth, even when it has to be reconstructed as was the case with Cullen’s doc: Forgotten Survivors.

Cullen Crozier was always going to be a gifted storyteller, it was in his genes, a talent passed down from his grandfather. He was making deliveries for a living when he discovered the APTN office. It led to a chance encounter that led to an award-winning career as a video journalist. We talk about that, as well as his documentary Against Their Will which documents the resilience of women fighting back against the system that sterilized them.
