Because of wildfires affecting northern Saskatchewan and Manitoba, I'm re-releasing this episode about a woman who lived in these areas: Thanadelthur. She was a Dene woman who had a profound impact on the Dene people in Northern Saskatchewan and Manitoba during the eighteenth-century fur trade. Much of Thanadelthur's story is shared through oral storytelling among the Dene community.

Anyone new to Australia can appreciate how important it is to keep your mother tongue alive. Language is integral to your culture and Australia's Indigenous languages are no different, connecting people to land and ancestral knowledge. They reflect the diversity of Australia's First Nations peoples. More than 100 First Nations languages are currently spoken across Australia. Some are spoken by only a handful of people, and most are in danger of being lost forever. But many are being revitalised. In today's episode of Australia Explained we explore the diversity and reawakening of Australia's First languages. - Avustralya'ya yeni gelen herkes, ana dilini canlı tutmanın ne kadar önemli olduğunu takdir eder. Dil, kültürünüzün ayrılmaz bir parçası ve Avustralya'nın yerli dilleri de farklı değil. İnsanları toprağa ve atalarından gelen geleneksel birikime bağlar. Avustralya'nın İlk Uluslar halklarının çeşitliliğini yansıtırlar. Şu anda Avustralya'da 100'den fazla İlk Uluslar dili konuşulmakta. Bazıları sadece bir avuç insan tarafından konuşuluyor ve çoğu sonsuza dek kaybolma tehlikesiyle karşı karşıya. Ancak birçoğu yeniden canlandırılıyor. Merhaba Avustralya'nın bugünkü bölümünde, Avustralya'nın İlk dillerinin çeşitliliğini ve yeniden uyanışını keşfediyoruz.

Fast-moving fires in Manitoba are burning up the land and threatening communities - including those in a remote First Nation in the north, where hundreds of people still need to be evacuated. But once they're brought to safety, the province is running out of places to house people.Also: A company that was built before the nation even existed is closing up shop. It is the last day of sales for the Hudson's Bay Company. The retailer is closing all of its department stores - leaving thousands of people out of work.And: There are many benefits to taking a brisk walk, or a jog. But a new study suggests it may also have a noticeable impact on cancer survival. You'll hear about the research and why doctors say it's time to start prescribing exercise.Plus: Ukrainian drone strikes on Russian airfields, looking ahead to the first ministers meeting, and more

Interview with Walter Coles, Executive Chairman of Skeena Resources Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/skeena-resources-tsxske-fully-funded-high-grade-gold-poised-for-production-5657Recording date: 29th May 2025Skeena Gold & Silver is developing the Eskay Creek Mine in British Columbia, positioned to become one of the world's largest gold-silver mines when production begins in early 2027. This project represents a compelling investment opportunity with exceptional economics, significant upside potential, and multiple near-term catalysts that could drive substantial share price appreciation.The project's economics are truly remarkable. At $3,200/oz gold price, Eskay Creek boasts an after-tax NPV of $4.5 billion and an extraordinary 72% internal rate of return. This translates to a payback period of just over six months on the $700 million construction cost. Most impressively, Skeena's all-in sustainable cost per ounce is projected at less than $600 for the first six years of production, compared to approximately $1,700 for major producers like Barrick and Newmont. "We have a project that's super super low on the cost curve, enormously profitable per ounce of production.", explains Coles. This cost advantage creates exceptional profit margins even at much lower gold prices.Skeena has secured comprehensive financing through Orion Resource Partners, removing a major uncertainty that typically impacts junior developers. The $750 million package includes equity, a gold stream, and debt facilities. Since announcing this funding, Skeena's stock has nearly tripled from around $6 to $17 Canadian. The company is now exploring refinancing options to reduce its cost of capital as the project de-risks.Beyond the base case, Skeena is advancing several value-enhancement initiatives. The company plans to extend the mine life from 12 to 15-16 years by incorporating the high-grade Snip deposit and the Albino Lake waste facility. Additionally, Skeena has identified significant antimony, lead, and zinc content worth potentially 2.2 million tons of waste tailings that could be recovered with minimal additional costs.Investors can look forward to several near-term catalysts such as final permits expected in Q4 2025, refinancing of the Orion loan facility in Q1 2026, updated feasibility study in the first half of 2026, and production commencement in early 2027.Skeena's partnership with the Tahltan First Nation adds another layer of strength to the project. The company signed the first agreement in Canada giving a First Nation formal consent rights over a mining project, creating a true partnership that reduces social and political risk factors.For investors seeking exposure to precious metals with significant upside potential, Skeena offers a rare combination of exceptional grade, economics, and execution capability in a tier-one jurisdiction. As the company advances toward production and begins generating substantial cash flow, the valuation gap with producing peers is likely to close, potentially delivering substantial returns to investors who position themselves ahead of these developments.View Skeena Gold & Silver's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/skeena-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In an important ruling, the Superior Court of Québec has recognized that the Québec government failed for decades in its constitutional duty to consult the Mitchikanibikok Inik First Nation when mining claims were granted on its territory. Lawyers from Ecojustice and the Centre québécois du droit de l'environnement argued that the Quebec mining act violated the constitution, and they won. We speak with Joshua Ginsberg, the lawyer for Ecojustice who represented Mitchikanibikok Inik First Nation in this case.

Het is National Reconciliation Week. Dit jaar is het thema 'Bridging Now to Next' - een oproep aan de natie om na te denken over de voortdurende verbinding tussen verleden, heden en toekomst.

Events have been held around the country to mark National Sorry Day, an acknowledgement of the forced removal of First Nations children from their families and culture. One-third of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are descendants of Stolen Generations survivors, and many have shared their families stories and memories of child removal. As reconciliation week also begins, First Nations leaders are calling for truth-telling and concrete action from politicians to address ongoing disadvantage.

Beyond the myths and mysteries of Sex and why it’s so taboo, we felt it important to delve into Sex for People of Colour. Why is it so hard for us to talk about? How do we handle being hypersexualised at a young age and losing our innocence? What is our hope for People of Colour when it comes to sex and healing? We were joined by the immensely profound Nadine Atia of Aateeyah Sexology who spoke on the trauma that First Nations and People of Colour carry and how it manifests into our sexuality and sex life.

In today's show, Betty interviews Sonya Takau from Dingo Culture and Alix Livingstone from Defend the Wild all about the native Australian dingo. We learn about the character of the dingo, their role in Australian ecosystems and what makes them unique. We go on to discuss some of the significant threats facing the dingo and strategies for securing their future led by First Nations land custodians. Sonya Takau is a Jirrbal Rainforest Aboriginal woman living in Tully, Far North Queensland. The dingo is highly significant to Sonya and her family. To Sonya, the dingo is kin, and she has a cultural obligation to protect them from harm. As well as Sonya's cultural ties to the dingo, she has a particular personal passion for the species and shares her home with an orphaned wild-dingo named Bina. Sonya is the director of Dingo Culture, a platform dedicated to representing the Aboriginal perspective on the dingo, which has been drowned out for the past 233 years. Dingo Culture's mission is to create legislative change to recognise and protect dingoes as culturally significant animals. In 2023, Sonya played a key role in bringing about the first of its kind National Inaugural First Nations Dingo Forum, which brought together First Nations people from across the country to have their say on current dingo management across the country. At the conclusion of the forum a historic National First Nations Dingo Declaration was produced, which outlined the cultural significance of the dingo and called for a new, non-lethal, model - caring for Dingoes on Country. Alix Livingstone is the Founding Director of Defend the Wild. She is motivated by a desire to address the complex challenges confronting Australian wildlife. Alix possesses a wealth of experience and a deep commitment to collaborating with various stakeholders on the ground to ensure that solutions can be found that benefit wildlife, ecosystems, and communities. Alix is highly skilled in crafting high-impact public awareness campaigns aimed at reshaping public perceptions and driving positive change. She actively participates in lobbying efforts targeting Government and peak industry bodies to advocate for legislative and policy reforms that prioritise the welfare of communities, wildlife, and the environment. Alix spearheaded the development of Defend the Wild's Dingo campaign, which was featured on ABC's 7.30 program, shedding light on the government-sanctioned treatment of Dingoes across Victoria. Additionally, she played a pivotal role in launching the #DropCroc campaign, featured on Channel 10's 'The Project,' unveiling the practice of factory farming Saltwater Crocodiles under the guise of conservation.

There's an air of excitement in Ottawa as it prepares for King Charles III to arrive and deliver the speech from the throne, which lays out the Liberal government's plan and priorities. His visit is also widely seen as pushback against U.S. President Donald Trump's threats to turn Canada into the 51st state. But according to the new U.S. ambassador to Canada Pete Hoekstra, that saga is over and Canada should move on. He sits with Catherine Cullent to discuss that and the next steps in the Canada-U.S. relationship.Plus, after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused Canada of emboldening Hamas, a Middle East expert joins The House to talk about if there's been a shift in Canadian-Israeli relations. Then, a constitutional expert, a royal watcher, an Indigenous leader and members of Quebec's sovereignty parties talk about what message King Charles' speech will send to Trump — or whether the whole thing ultimately means nothing to the U.S. president.Finally, the parliamentary bureau chief of the National Post and the Ottawa bureau chief of La Presse explain what to look for in the government's to-do list.This episode features the voices of:Pete Hoekstra, U.S. ambassador to CanadaThomas Juneau, University of Ottawa political science professorPatricia Treble, royal watcherPhilippe Lagassé, Carleton University political science professorPerry Bellegarde, former national chief of the Assembly of First NationsPascal Bérubé, Parti Québécois MNACatherine Gentilcore, Parti Québécois MNARuba Ghazal, Québec solidaire MNAStuart Thomson, National Post parliamentary bureau chiefJoel-Denis Bellavance, La Presse Ottawa bureau chief

Every year in conjunction with National Reconciliation Week from 27 May to 3 June, Australians are presented with the opportunity to learn more about the nation's shared histories, cultures and achievements. This year, the theme is Bridging Now to Next - calling on the nation to reflect on the ongoing connection between past, present and future.

The BC Court of Appeal has delivered a significant ruling that serves as a stark warning to property sellers: crossing out questions on disclosure forms doesn't eliminate your responsibility to be truthful. When a seller drew lines through all disclosure questions, writing only that the property was tenant-occupied and he'd never lived there, he created a legal nightmare for himself. After discovering an unpermitted addition, the buyer backed out – but the seller kept the $300,000 deposit and sued for more. Though initially successful, the Court of Appeal reversed the decision, finding the seller knew about the problem and his line-crossing technique didn't absolve him of responsibility.The case highlights a critical point for anyone engaging in real estate transactions: disclosure forms are binding components of your contract. If you choose to complete one, everything you state (or strategically avoid stating) can have serious financial consequences. Sellers must either be meticulously accurate or explicitly mark properties as sold "as is" with no representations or warranties.In a separate ruling that exposes the troubling state of Indigenous child welfare, the Court restored a $150,000 human rights award to a First Nations mother who successfully proved discrimination by an Indigenous child protection agency. The statistics remain deeply concerning – Indigenous children represent a staggering 68% of those in government care despite comprising just 6% of BC's population. The case offers a glimpse into a system still struggling with its approach to Indigenous families.These rulings demonstrate how the courts continue to shape responsibilities in property transactions and protect human rights in child welfare matters. Whether you're buying, selling, or navigating family services, understanding these legal precedents could save you from costly mistakes or help you assert your rights when systems fail.Follow this link for a transcript of the show and links to the cases discussed.

Circles have played a huge role in fiddler and singer Morgan Toney's life thus far: from drum circles, to talking circles, to the Earth itself (a circle!). In our Basic Folk conversation, Morgan talks about his L'nu (also known as Mi'kmaq) heritage and growing up on what's now called Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, where his ancestors have lived since time immemorial. He elaborates on the significance of the terms 'Mi'kmaq' and 'Nu,' explaining the shift in terminology among his people. As a teenager, he discovered his Indigenous heritage and cultural roots from his elders after he moved to Wagmatcook (a First Nations reserve) and learned about how the power of music could shape his life. He shares the story of first hearing Phil Collins at his uncle's house after school, which inspired him to take up the drums. He soon discovered First Nations drumming by directly learning the songs from elders in talking circles. Morgan also talks about his transition from a shy teenager to a confident musician deeply immersed in both Mi'kmaq and Celtic musical traditions, creating a unique fusion which Morgan calls "Mi'kmaltic."We also talk about Morgan's emotional connection to his community and the importance of music in rediscovering and celebrating his Indigenous heritage. He recounts how his exposure to traditional Mi'kmaq songs and ceremonies as a teenager was a transformative experience that reignited his cultural pride; in music and in our conversation Morgan pays homage to his family members, especially his elders, who played pivotal roles in nurturing his musical talents and helping him embrace his cultural identity. Finally, Morgan reflects on his musical collaborations, including his close partnership with producer Keith Mullins, and the creation of his new album, 'Heal the Divide.' He further explains the innovative process of blending Mi'kmaq and Celtic musical elements, the album's thematic focus on community and healing, and his aspirations to inspire the younger generation of his community. This was truly an inspiring conversation exploring the intersections of culture, history, and music with a very special musician!Follow Basic Folk on social media: https://basicfolk.bio.link/Sign up for Basic Folk's newsletter: https://bit.ly/basicfolknewsHelp produce Basic Folk by contributing: https://basicfolk.com/donate/Interested in sponsoring us?

Claire de Mézerville López is joined by co-host, Executive Director of IIRP Canada, Pat Lewis, for a special IIRP Canada series, highlighting the use of restorative practices and restorative justice across Canada. In this episode, they welcome seasoned youth care specialist Joe Blake to the Restorative Works! Podcast. Joe joins us to discuss the representation of Indigenous youth in Canada's justice system and the cultural disconnect they often experience. He explains how restorative practices align closely with Indigenous ways of resolving conflict—centered on healing, empathy, and community. Through stories from his own practice, including a powerful anecdote involving two youth in a group home, Joe illustrates how even informal restorative conversations can defuse tension, foster understanding, and build authentic relationships. Joe is a restorative practices instructor with IIRP Canada. He runs restorative justice training workshops and has been working in the field of Child and Youth Care for more than fifteen years. Joe has a Master of Arts in Child and Youth Care. The research focus for his Master of Arts thesis is on restorative practices with Indigenous youth within the youth criminal justice system. Joe's key areas of interest in the field particularly lie in the youth criminal justice system, youth rights, restorative practices, social justice, Indigenous practices, and youth advocacy.  He teaches these topics at several Toronto-based colleges, including Toronto Metropolitan University, Sheridan College, and Durham College. Joe serves in a variety of family counselling and court-ordered supervised access program positions. Joe identifies as Ojibwe, First Nations and is especially aware of the challenges that Indigenous and other marginalized youth face.  Tune in to learn more about how restorative justice offers a meaningful alternative to punitive systems by promoting accountability without shame, and how youth themselves begin to use these tools in their homes and schools.

They'll all call you Subscribe-o   —   Monsteropolis: Turtle Town. A sub neighborhood of Monsteropolis, like Ape Street, Octopus Alley and Thunderbird Boulevard. Let's do these the whole show instead of the show. Bigfoot Borough. Turtle Town is a quaint little (big) neighborhood. And it's gotta be big, because it's full of real big turtles. Not Ninja Turtle big, those guys were big but like size of a bus big, eat your house big, ride across the ocean on their backs if you forged an unbreakable bond with them by saving their home land from a dragon big, stuff like that.    TURTLES are REPTILES. They live in the WATER, but they breathe AIR. They have SHELLS. What a WEIRD ANIMAL.    If you think about it, turtles are almost like their own cryptid already. Not as weird as the Platypus but still pretty weird. I mean. Shells? Some of them live to be super old too, like 100 years or so.    Intrinsic weirdness aside, there are a lot of legends and cryptid encounters associated with turtles.    THE WORLD TURTLE - Present in a lot of mythologies. Basically the idea is that the WHOLE WORLD sits on top of the back of a giant turtle. Turtle world. Turtle Planet.    The oldest version we know about seems to come from Hindu mythology. The god Vishnu appears in the avatar of a giant turtle named Kurma, which had a mountain on its back.    It also popped up, seemingly independently in First Nations lore, such as the Iroquois and Lenape, who portray it as a giant sea turtle.    It's cool to think of ancient societies observing the world around them and going, “Oh yeah, all this is on a turtle.” If you think about how they would have observed turtles in the wild, you know, algae and stuff growing on their backs, they kind of look like little models of earth.    Historians and scholars also talk about themes that would likely have been in play, such as longevity and continuation, which were important to some of the First Nations tribes and really have been important to human societies for most of history. People would have noticed that turtles lived a long time and also kind of represent security and strength. That's cool.    https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/world-turtle-cosmic-discworld   THE BEAST OF BUSCO - A big old turtle legend from Indiana. Local to Churubusco, Whitley County, Indiana, also referred to by the nickname Turtle Town, which I did not know when I tentatively named this episode. According to one online source, the nickname originally stems from ‘Little Turtle,' the name of a sagamore (chief) of the Miami tribe, but it's later become associated with the giant turtle sighting at Fulk Lake.   First sighting is said to come from 1898 by a guy named Oscar Fulk who spotted it on a large lake on his property. Like, really large, 7 acres apparently.  FIFTY YEARS went by. Then in 1948, two men named Ora Blue (that's a name right there) and Charley Wilson were fishing on the same lake, when they reported seeing a similar creature - just a huge, huge turtle, which they described as looking like a snapping turtle with huge spiky shell “the size of a dinner table,” and now all I can think about is Bowser from Mario Bros.  Gale Harris, who owned the property at the time of the second sighting, got really into the whole thing, and launched multiple expeditions to try and capture it, including one wherein he drained the 7 acre lake. They tried nets and damming streams and all kinds of stuff. They never found the turtle and it nearly bankrupted him.  The local media picked it up a few months after the Blue/Wilson encounter, and it became another Cryptozoological staple. Thrill seekers, monster hunters and now internet weirdos (like us!) became fascinated with the story, and it hangs around in the new millennium.  Turtle Brother is supposed to be around 500 pounds. Adult male alligator snapping turtles (the ones we know for sure exist) can hit over 200 pounds, so maybe Busco Boy was just a really really big turtle, but you gotta wonder how he got that big. By the same token, alligator snapping turtles aren't supposed to live in Indiana, so if it were one of those, it would represent its own anomalous encounter on par with Phantom Big Cats and other out-of-place animals. Some natural historians don't think they ever lived there at all, though specimens have been seen as close as the White River in Morgan County, as recently as 1991, but experts posit that this was likely an escaped or released domestic specimen based on its growth pattern. So, shrugging emoji.  https://www.iflscience.com/the-beast-of-busco-the-mystery-of-indianas-500-pound-turtle-sightings-75278 https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/could-citizens-of-this-indiana-town-have-seen-a-500-pound-turtle-180984659/ The Ogua - Another big old turtle guy but this one has two heads (sometimes)! Two head turtle, Turtle Two Head, Turtle Tim and The Two Headed Ogua, I don't know, this would make a great kids movie though. A lot of cryptid stories would make good kids' movies.  Anyway though, this guy shows up in Virginia and Pennsylvania and Ohioooooo, right near you guys. Aleghenny and Monongahela rivers apparently.  Did you, did you check for turtles? Turtle check? When you went outside today? Watch out for this guy because he's- Twenty feet long! That's longer than cars. 500 pounds. Does this seem too long? Like shouldn't something that long weigh more? Unless he's like a really slim cigar shaped turtle? I dunno, I'm not good at math, maybe somebody can figure out what a twenty foot long thing that's also 500 pounds would look like and draw it.  Story goes that in 1745 (before the Revolution) a giant two headed turtle jumped out of the river and ate a 12 year old boy who was fishing. Which is kind of how alligators and predatory turtles hunt you know, like hiding right under the surface. Bummer.  There are supposed to be sightings “all over Marion county” according to online sources but specifics are spotty. Did you guys SEE the Ogua when you were children? Were you WARNED not to get EATEN by two headed turtles? So could any of these guys actually exist? Maybe not the world turtle one unless we're just gonna decide that that's real. I like it so I'm good with it.  The biggest turtle ever known to exist was the Archelon Ischyros, a sea turtle that grew up to 15 feet long and was believed to weigh up to three tons.  See that's what I was saying earlier - something 20 feet long would need to weigh more than 500 pounds. BUT an especially large Alligator Snapping turtle could, maybe, possibly, be MISTAKEN for weighing 500 pounds, or maybe actually weigh close to that much. There are people who are way taller than the average person so it probably happens with turtles. It could be a whole thing where there just were some really big turtles hanging out in these areas and witnesses mistook them for being 20 feet long.  What they're doing in Indiana and Ohio though is another mystery.  Ultimately it's not a question of whether turtles this size/near this size existed - it's a question of whether or not one matching the anatomy of a snapping turtle could get this large, and if it could/did ever exist in some of these northern parts of the country, AND if they could still be hanging around in the modern day. We're essentially talking about dinosaurs here - should the “turtle cryptids” be thought of the same way we think about Plesiosaurs and other “surviving dinosaur” stories? Is this just too many questions?  We're also talking about behaviors really closely associated with gators/crocs (the ambush hunting) so maybe there were some stories about alligators that got mixed up and turned into stories about turtles, but that seems like a stupid guess now that I'm typing it out. And also alligators aren't supposed to be in Ohio or Indiana either.  SOME POP CULTURE REFERENCES - Plenty of giant turtles in Pop Culture. There's that Gamera guy, and the smaller Toho kaiju Kameobas from the cult film Yog: Monster from Space (Kameobas also shows up in Godzilla: Tokyo SOS, 2004). There's the giant turtle from Aladdin and King of Thieves, always liked that guy. The Pokemon Torterra is pretty clearly a take on the World Turtle idea (got trees and mountains on his back and in the Detective Pikachu movie he's the size of a mountain). There's this video game called Fortnite you may have heard of. Giant turtle in there as a part of the Oni/Ninja theme they did for season whatever it was - is that guy still around? I haven't played in awhile. He was cool though you could hide in the trees on his back and find really crappy shotguns and then get killed by a much better player who already figured out that's a bad strategy.  — Thanks for listening everybody!

Anyone new to Australia can appreciate how important it is to keep your mother tongue alive. Language is integral to your culture and Australia's Indigenous languages are no different, connecting people to land and ancestral knowledge. They reflect the diversity of Australia's First Nations peoples. More than 100 First Nations languages are currently spoken across Australia. Some are spoken by only a handful of people, and most are in danger of being lost forever. But many are being revitalised. In today's episode of Australia Explained we explore the diversity and reawakening of Australia's First languages. - Chiunque sia arrivato di recente in Australia può capire quanto sia importante mantenere viva la propria lingua madre. La lingua è parte integrante della propria cultura, e le lingue indigene australiane non sono diverse, poiché collegano le persone alla terra e alle conoscenze ancestrali e riflettono la diversità dei popoli delle Prime Nazioni australiane. Più di 100 lingue delle Prime Nazioni sono attualmente parlate in tutta l'Australia. Alcune sono parlate solo da una manciata di persone, e la maggior parte di esse rischiano di andare perdute per sempre. Ma molte si stanno rivitalizzando. Nella puntata odierna di "Australia Explained" esploriamo la diversità e il risveglio delle prime lingue australiane.

Indigenous leaders are forcefully denouncing Alberta Premier Danielle Smith's rhetoric inviting the idea of separating from Canada. The province includes wide swaths of treaty territory established through agreements with the federal government. First Nations leaders say there is no way to even enter the conversation of separation without first consulting with the tribes. The unprecedented talk of separation comes as President Donald Trump insists on promoting the unlikely scenario of the U.S. annexing Canada. We'll learn about First Nations authority in Alberta and the sovereignty questions the separation discussions raise.
