The World Health Organization failed to draft a treaty to drive the global response to a potential future pandemic, but that doesn't mean it won't try again. A legacy media outlet quietly erased the fact that it falsely reported 215 graves were uncovered at the site of the former Kamloops Indian Residential School. Two men have been charged in a human smuggling case that the U.S. Department of Justice has called a “dangerous scheme” to traffic people from British Columbia into the United States.

Cory asks when the investigation of the anomalies found at the Kamloops Residential School site is going to begin.  Guest, Colin Craig of Second Street talks about health care trends. 

Tréchelle Bunn is an athlete and activist. Until recently, she wasn't much of a runner. But in May of 2021, when 215 unmarked graves were discovered on the former grounds of the Kamloops Residential School, Tréchelle decided to take action. She founded a Healing Walk and directed the first Reconciliation Run Half-Marathon, using movement as medicine to empower her communities and reclaim space. Tréchelle is also the recipient of the Student Community Builder Award at last year's Indigenous Awards of Excellence, and is featured in the Under Armour Diversity Series with Canadian Running Magazine. Learn more about the Under Armour Diversity Series on our website https://runningmagazine.ca/category/ua-diversity-series/Learn more about The Shakeout Podcast and Canadian Running Magazine on our website https://runningmagazine.ca/category/shakeout-podcast/Follow The Shakeout Podcast on Twitter https://twitter.com/ShakeoutPodcastInstagram https://www.instagram.com/shakeoutpodcast/ andFacebook https://www.facebook.com/theshakeoutpodcast/Subscribe to our weekly show on Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-shakeout-podcast/id1224828899243

The truth matters, and it often falls victim when the dominant ideology is being promoted. In this episode, we use the examples of the Kamloops Residential School and the Nicholas Sandmann case to discuss the importance of discernment, and the lack of discernment that has often been shown, even in the evangelical world. In this episode, I go through the following article, published in January of this year: https://www.dorchesterreview.ca/blogs/news/in-kamloops-not-one-body-has-been-found

In spring of 2021, news broke that the bodies of hundreds of potential murder victims, mostly children, were uncovered in a mass grave at the Kamloops Residential School. It was horrible news. Children snatched away from their families, punished for their culture, and abused until their were dead at the hands of the Catholic Church. There were even bones, a tooth and a rib bone just lying there on the ground, evidence of a genocidal crime. That's how the story was first reported, anyway. But then it quickly evolved. Perhaps it was a series of graves and not a pit. Maybe the tooth wasn't a tooth at all. Maybe the graves were previous ground disturbances. And then news of any subsequent investigation or excavation at the site just went dark. Why did this alleged crime scene not see the same sort of fulsome forensic investigation as the Pickton Farm, where dozens of women from Vancouver's Downtown Eastside met their gruesome ends at the hands of a serial killer? Why wasn't the woman who claimed to discover the graves insisting on it? The facts of the story were not necessary for a spate of church burnings and vandalism — 69 in total — to kick off across the country last summer. What really happened in Kamloops? Rebel News reporter Drea Humphrey has a brand-new documentary out today at http://www.RebelNewsPlus.com which details her attempts to follow the facts where ever they may lead. It's called Kamloops: The Buried Truth, and Drea joins me today to discuss what she discovered and why she felt compelled to dig deeper.

Cory calls for a forensic investigation into the alleged grave sites at the former Kamloops residential school.  David Krayden joins the show to discuss federal issues.  Linda  Slobodian talks to Cory about her soon to be released documentary on the Afghan debacle of the summer of 2021

This episode is from Season 1 and originally aired in spring of 2020 but with the renewed and urgent calls for accountability and truth-telling after the recovery of graves starting at Kamloops Residential School, we wanted to share this story again. We learn about the oldest Residential School in Canada and hear a powerful story from a survivor. We hear from settlers who are wrestling with the legacy of colonialism and residential schools. And we hear from Indigenous partners who are courageously reclaiming their culture. Links: Woodland Cultural Centre's Save The Evidence campaign.

Following our conversation about the movie Big Fish, Blake reached to Troy Hill -  an Indigenous educator, a father and a son to a larger-than-life man whose stories, like those portrayed in the movie, seemed to defy authenticity. The conversation was supposed to be about how one reconciles such tall tales with reality. But Blake and Troy ended up talking about a different kind of truth and reconciliation – one that's particularly relevant as Canadians mark the first national holiday dedicated to those goals.In their conversation, Troy recounts how he learned of his father's experiences at a residential school and the toll it has taken on his family. Just a few days later, news broke about the discovery of the remains of more than 200 children at the Kamloops Residential School.  Today, in honour of this first National Day of Truth and Reconciliation, we're presenting their conversation again. Though the discoveries themselves are not discussed, we feel Troy's story is an important one. Please take the time to listen, and share it with a friend.

In this episode I am looking at the Native American Residential Schools here in America.  Ever since June, when the graves of 215 Indigenous School children were found at the site of the Kamloops Residential School in British Columbia and, weeks later, 751 unmarked graves were found at the site of the  Marieval Indian Residential School in  Marieval,  Saskatchewan , attention has been drawn to similar boarding or residential schools for Native Americans here in America.   Although the concept of residential schools can be traced back to 1634 Maryland, they did not gain the support of the U.S. Government until 1879 when Richard Henry Pratt opened the Carlisle Industrial School in Carlisle, Pennsylvania.While it's impossible to teach every good and bad thing in American History in school, I believe we need to look at it all.  As Americans we have a lot to be proud of, but we also have a lot to learn from.  We should be having these conversations.  Maybe not all of them in school but sometime, somewhere, so that we can learn from them.Please don't forget to check out my friends at Kahuna Window Cleaning for all of your home care needs.  If this show brings any value to your day, please consider showing your support.  It would be greatly appreciated.

Air Date 7/28/2021 Today we take a look at the legacy of residential schools for native children in the US and Canada. We hear some of the voices of victims, from those looking to establish truth and reconciliation and some thoughts on what it would really take to get a full accounting of this genocide and its impact through generations.

The Bill Kelly Show Podcast: One thing the pandemic has brought us is more frequent conversations about mental health. We've had more conversations about our own as many of us struggled with new uncertainties and challenges this past year, but also more conversations about the mental health of public figures (Naomi Osaka's recent appearance in the news comes to mind). So, do Canadians feel comfortable prioritizing their mental health at work without fear of facing stigma? And what do we think of the scrutiny public figures might face if they try and have an open conversation about the topic? GUEST: Oksana Kishchuk, Consultant at Abacus Data - The latest update on the devastating tornado that hit Barrie yesterday GUEST: Mark Carcasole, Reporter for Global News in Toronto - A specialist in ground-penetrating radar says there are still nearly 650,000 square metres of land to be surveyed before the total number of unmarked graves is confirmed at the site of Canada's largest residential school. Sarah Beaulieu, a professor at the University of the Fraser Valley, released her initial findings from the site in B.C.'s Interior during a news conference Thursday hosted by the Tk'emlups te Secwepmc First Nation. Her search of an area on the grounds of the Kamloops Indian Residential School identified 200 of what she called remaining "targets of interest," which may be graves. GUEST: Dr. Paulette Steeves, Cree-Metis Indigenous Archaeologist, Associate Professor of Sociology, Canada Research Chair in Healing & Reconciliation at Ontario's Algoma University The head of the World Health Organization says he's hoping for better cooperation and access to data from China in the search for the origins of the coronavirus. WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus says getting access to raw data had been a challenge for the international expert team that traveled to China this year to investigate the cause of the outbreak, which was first reported from Wuhan. Tedros says the Geneva-based body is “asking actually China to be transparent, open and cooperate, especially on the information, raw data that we asked for at the early days of the pandemic.” He also says there had been a “premature push” to rule out the theory that the coronavirus might have escaped from a Chinese government lab in Wuhan.

So what topped the news this past week? CANCEL CANADA DAY! In light of the tragic discovery of 215 bodies of indigenous school children underneath a former Kamloops Residential School, "Organizers and activists are calling on the City of Vancouver to “cancel Canada Day” this year" following the footsteps of Victoria cancelling their Canada Day festivities. Here's the link to one of the articles from NEWS 1130 : https://www.citynews1130.com/.../cancel-canada-day.../ The word "Cancel" has been THE word of 2021 and you may have heard of the phrase "Cancel Culture." Is this another example of cancel culture? Or is this completely different? This Wednesday, Jonathan LK Chan offers his Christian opinion on the subject of Cancel Culture AND if cancelling Canada Day is related or not. Want to know more about Company of Disciples?

In an attempt to be topical, Sabrina goes through the storied history of polio in Manitoba - from the early epidemic era, through bizarre treatment ideas and wonky science, to one of Canada's largest vaccination initiatives. We promise, we didn't want this episode to feel quite as relevant as it does.   Content Warning: This episode was recorded over a month ago, before the discovery of the bodies of 215 children at the former Kamloops Residential School. We are all heartbroken by the discovery, and unfortunately this episode contains a similar incident on a smaller scale. It is discussed from 54:46-57:03 so you can expect it or skip it if you aren't in a space for it.

Emily, Reese and Jasmin discuss the NYPD closing Washington Square Park earlier than usual, the alarming rise in the number of voter suppression bills in the US, the discovery of the remains of 215 indigenous children at the site of a Canadian residential school in British Columbia, and updates on local COVID stats.

Our 58th Zoomcast (June 3rd); The Powered By Age team discusses the beginning of National Indigenous History Month, including the tragic discovery at the Kamloops Residential School of 215 dead children, and then discusses their efforts to bridge the digital divide.

The recent discovery of 215 bodies at the Kamloops Residential School in British Columbia, Canada surprised everyone except Native people. For several decades survivors of these genocidal institutions have told stories of the abuse, neglect and violence that they experienced at these schools but the general public largely ignored them. In this episode, we take another look at the genocidal residential school system implemented by the Canadians and the Americans. Author and historian Keith Burich joins John to discuss the history and long-term impacts of the residential school system. Closing song is "War Club" by DJ Shub feat.

Just days before entering June - which is National Indigenous History Month - remains of 215 indigenous children were found in a mass grave at the Kamloops Residential School on the Tk'emlúps te Secwe̓pemc First Nation. This horrific discovery has brought to light the lesser known struggles of the indigenous peoples of Canada via various laws under the Indian Act and in particular via the forced assimilation of indigenous children into the new Christian Euro-Canadian society created via European colonial settlers via residential schools. These schools are arguably the darkest hour in Canada's history and have echoed into the present, still impacting the communities that have suffered. In this episode we briefly run through the history of discrimination and oppression that indigenous communities in Canada face while reflecting on our role and experiences as immigrants here.

This conversation was recorded before the May 29th news release that 215 Indigenous children were discovered buried outside the old Kamloops Residential School. This school is located on Sunny's traditional territory. This tragic reminder of Canada's past and present racist policies is a wake-up call and a call to action. For many Canadians, this is the first they have learned of the shocking practices of our country and the church. I hope this conversation furthers your learning and inspires you to learn more. Thank you for your courage to be here and listen. What is reconciliation?  I can't think of a better time to ask this question and listen for the answers. In this circle, we are joined by Sunny LeBourdais of the Pellt'iqt te Secwepemc Nation and Qwastanaya (L.Maynard Harry) of the Tla'amin Nation to hear the stories of their communities, the brave leadership work they are doing, and the hopes for the future. What I have learned about reconciliation is that it must start with the truth. In this conversation, you will hear the truth in very clear and direct ways. This experience is both an education and a call to action. Please take care of yourself as you listen in, and know that by letting these words soak in and change you, you can make a difference. What's in this episode for you: 9:55 - An opening passage by Richard Wagamese 11:40 - Be inspired by learning about these courageous leaders and the change they are making in their communities 19:35 - A better understanding of what is needed to create real change in Indigenous communities and the role of leadership in that transformation 27:08 - A way to reframe the concept of governance in a way that decreases conflict and division 29:15 - How intergenerational trauma interferes with the ability to deal with conflict and why social media is contributing to divisiveness 35:30 - How non-Indigenous people can support healing and understanding by doing their homework 39:40 - Why Canada is one of the most racist countries in the world and a call to action to change our systems 48:15 - Some tangible and actionable definitions of what reconciliation means and what it does not mean 1:03:45 - Hope for the future and the new leaders that are bringing reconciliation to life Poem: Excerpt from Embers, by Richard Wagamese: Unity cannot exist when exclusion is allowed to occur. I was graced with this teaching years ago, when I was working as a traditional elder's helper. The teaching was given in the context of the sacred pipe, but its intention was to help me understand community. What brings us together cannot exist in the same time and place as what keeps us apart. You. Me. Everyone. My choice is to be aware of our similarities: our yearning for truth, peace, love, belonging, welcome, grace, mercy, a god of our own understanding and at least one moment of real contact at the heart of every day. Seeing that, I am made more, included, extended and in harmony…until that moment when I no longer see. Who's in circle with us: Qwastånayå (L.

A Roman Catholic priest speaks to us about the tragic discovery of the remains of 215 children at the Kamloops Residential School and the effort to make sense of it with his congregation.

Welcome to the MWSA Podcast for Tuesday, June 8th. We begin with details on a planned Calgary Vigil for the victims of the tragedy that took place in London, Ontario earlier this week. We get details from Saima Jamal, Co-founder of the Calgary Immigrant Support Society. Next we look at the fallout – and now investigation – of the shocking discovery of 215 children found buried at the former Kamloops Residential School. We speak with Mercedes Stephenson, Global News Ottawa Bureau Chief and Host of The West Block. Mercedes shares with us details of her interview this week with Jody Wilson-Reybould, former First-Nations Chief and current Member of Parliament. Albertans will have a chance to make their voices count at our next Municipal Election when it comes to “Equalization Payments” from the Province to the Federal Government, but, will the vote really amount to anything? We get some clarity from a Political Science Professor at the University of Calgary. What's in a name? For the communities of Turner Valley and Black Diamond it's currently a topic of discussion. We speak with Black Diamond Mayor Ruth Goodwin about the process, already in motion to merge the two towns. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of the Shawnee Rising Podcast, I talk a little about the sad news that the remains of 215 First Nations children were found at the Kamloops Residential School in Canada. This has been on my mind a lot and felt I needed to say...something. The history and impact of Christianity in this country has played a major roll in the directions that my life has taken and why, today, I have taken back control of my life to set out on the path of my ancestors.

We have dedicated a whole show to a subject that will affect hundreds of millions of people worldwide: flexible working hours and "work from home". While staff in many Asian countries have been back to the office for a while now, companies in the United States and Canada are now rolling out announcements for an imminent return to the office. The problem? Not everyone wants to go back. Aside from the pandemic, Ewan looks at some of the demographic changes that are giving the WFH movement an extra push, and shares his ideas on how employers and employees can prepare. Then Cam gets specific -- with Apple. The company's CEO Tim Cook told staff last week they can return to the office on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday each week, while granting remote work on Wednesdays and Fridays -- a step widely seen as very accommodating for a company with an old school outlook when it comes to work. But that change wasn't good enough for thousands of employees who penned a lengthy letter taking the company to task for not doing more. We look at this issue from every possible angle and hopefully stumble on some solutions. In Check This Out, Ewan recommends an editorial on a horrific mass grave found in Canada, while Cam has bookmarked a New Yorker piece on the strange radio waves targeting US officials worldwide.

This week I'm talking about the Kamloops Residential School and what I think about and what it means for Canada #215 #kamloops #residentialschool

The staggering news about the graves found at the Kamloops Indian Residential School broke across the country on the May 24 long weekend. The impact of this news continues to echo across the country as non-Indigenous citizens continue to listen, try to understand and for some, try not to look at what has happened. Indigenous […]

We speak with Labrador City councillor Nick McGrath about the amount of dust they're seeing from the mines this year. We hear from former chief of the Assembly of First Nations Phil Fontaine about the discovery of the remains of 215 indigenous children at the Kamloops Residential School. We hear from Cathy Ford, Nunatsiavut's project manager for Nanilavut, an initiative to help Inuit across Canada find the gravesites of family members who were sent away from their homes for tuberculosis treatments. How will the late breaking reopening plan impact fishing lodges in Labrador? We hear from Dwight Lethbridge of Pratt Falls Lodge. The Kamloops residential school story has shone a public spotlight on the history of those institutions. We speak with psychologist Dr. Janine Hubbard about how to talk to our kids and each other about this tragedy. We speak to Ossie Michelin who is writing and directing the new CBC podcast Telling Our Twisted Histories which is looking at the power of words to reinforce colonial power. Finally, tech columnist Manjula Selvarajah looks at a new economy brought to us by social media, the creator economy.

The time is now for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to finally act on his vow to create “transformative” policy and legal change for Indigenous people, says former cabinet minister Jody Wilson-Raybould. In an interview with The West Block‘s Mercedes Stephenson, the Independent MP for Vancouver-Granville  says while Trudeau has taken action during his time in government to support Indigenous communities, he hasn't yet lived up to his promise to create “transformative” change. The West Block‘s Mercedes Stephenson also interviews Indigenous Services Minister Marc Miller to ask him about the federal government's ongoing efforts to transform its relationship with Indigenous communities, in the wake of the discovery of the remains of 215 children in unmarked burial sites at the former Kamloops Residential School.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

***The subject matter and content of this episode may not be suitable for all listeners*** "We did hear of children's bones being found in the foundations of buildings when (Residential) schools were dismantled. We heard of children being thrown into furnaces. These were children. The little ones who have woken up in Kamloops this week, these are children calling out to all of us now." Marie Wilson, former Commissioner on the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, which investigated crimes and abuses against Indigenous children at Residential Schools in Canada, joins the Ahkameyimok Podcast from Yellowknife to discuss the shocking find of a mass grave of 215 children at the Kamloops Indian Residential School. The grave was found on the site of the former Kamloops Indian Residential School at the Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc First Nation in British Columbia. Dr Wilson discusses her feelings on hearing of the the Kamloops mass grave, her memories of visiting that site as Commissioner, why her work on the TRC from 2009 to 2015 means she is shocked but not surprised by this mass grave and believes there are many more like it across Canada that need to be investigated, and why she believes the Pope and Catholic church, which ran the majority of the Residential Schools, needs to apologize for its role in what the TRC described as cultural genocide.

West Kelowna long-haul trucker Mike Otto began organizing a convoy to honour the kids whose bodies were found buried at the Kamloops Residential School. He expects more than 300 trucks to participate this Saturday morning.

Seg:1- (AUDIO) A government that would participate in the murder of thousands upon thousands of children in Residential Schools wouldn't bat an eye at doing the same thing to white children today.They will be made to pay for the horror inflicted upon native children...simply because they are white.Even though tribal elders profited from it.Somebody's always got to loose, and in this instance it will be white people.----------------Kevin Annet speaks about the Kamloops Residential School in a very in depth audio presentation. He goes into such atrocities as pain threshold experiments being performed on children, sodomy with cattle prods, children burned in furnaces, and other hideous acts.Forced sterilization was even part of the Kamloops Residential School. Like a huge, baby burning furnace, Canada is trying to destroy any and all evidence of this horrible blight.Canada's past domestic genocide must not be hidden. May the light Kevin shines on this bloody holocaust never dim.Kevin's presentation continues in segment 2-----------------Seg:2- Kevin Annet's presentation continues with what really happened at the Kamloops Residential School.Kevin's campaign to get Canadian Church/State to respond to this has contributed to the current acknowledgment coming out from the guilty entities.This is a victory for the campaign spearheaded by Kevin, but it must accompany Canadians en masse who will see the unmasked reality for what it is. And cut all ties from it.Listen to this stellar presentation from Mr. Kevin D. Annet in full, and share it far and wide!For more on Mr. Kevin Annet, click below:http://murderbydecree.com/http://kanatarepublic.ca/what-is-the-republic-of-kanata/https://americanuckradio.com/breaking-news/what-childrens-bones-reveal-a-lament-for-the-dead-and-a-call-to-the-living/---------------Mike gets into a sorted, filthy testament of what the Democrat party is really all about.From the Washington Examiner:On Monday, national media reported an explosive story in Colorado. A prominent Black Lives Matter activist, socialist, and Denver Public Schools board member, Tay Anderson, stepped back “from everyday board functions” while an independent investigation looks into startling allegations that he sexually abused 62 current and former students.The alleged assaults range from unwanted touching to “violent rape” of students as young as 14 years old. Sixty-one of these students are purportedly illegal immigrants or recipients of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program. The new allegations come two months after the group BLM5280, and past associates of Anderson's at the (now-defunct) youth-led gun-control group Never Again Colorado accused him of past sexual assault and harassment.Read More:https://americanuckradio.com/current-events/democrats-silent-on-sexual-assault-allegations-involving-62-children/Mike takes this apart with expertise.‐-----------------(AUDIO) Mike discusses the Texas valedictorian who delivered a pro abortion speech.How horrible that such a bright young lady has had her brain cleaned so completely.-------------------(AUDIO) Rachel Levine discusses improving American physical and mental well being.If this horrible creature thinks he's in any place to discuss improving mental well being, he hasn't looked in the mirror lately.-------------------(AUDIO) Mike Pence discusses how he and President Trump may never see eye to eye on January 6.Was Pence in on the events of that day?Mike explains.-----------------------Enjoy all this, and much more, in a brilliant segment 2 from Mike.

The Chair of the School District 73 Board discusses how the district has had to react to the discover of the bodies of 215 kids at the Kamloops Residential School and the ongoing consultations with respect to potential changes to catchment areas in the district.

Canada's dark legacy of residential schools has forced back into the spotlight with the discovery of 215 unmarked graves at a site in Kamloops. It has renewed calls for reconciliation, while reminding Canadians that thousands of Indigenous children who were taken from their homes never returned.   And it has once again sparked pressure on governments to do their part to find where children may be buried   National Post political reporter Ryan Tumilty joins Dave to discuss the push to search other sites across the country, and next steps in Canada's attempts at reconciliation.   Background reading: Trudeau says federal government will help find other residential school gravesites   Residential school remains could reveal how 215 children lived — and died, experts say   The Indian Residential School Survivors Society emergency crisis line is available 24/7 for those that may need counselling support.

Welcome back to Gaining Mom-entum! *Trigger Warning* Meghan & Abi spend this week's intro discussing the recent discovery made by the Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc First Nation of the remains of 215 Indigenous children at the former Kamloops Residential School. They discuss the way the country continues to let down our Indigenous communities as well as some actionable steps that non-Indigenous people can take to show solidarity with the Indigenous communities across the land.  They then segue from talking about systemic racism to, well, talking about more systemic racism. Their guest for this week's discussion is Grace, a friend of Abi's, who was generous in sharing her time and personal experiences with anti-Asian hate as a Filipino-Canadian woman and the mother of a child who is Filipino, Chinese, and of course, Canadian. She begins by sharing what it was like for her growing up surrounded by people who did not look like her and how her mother's experience as an immigrant led to internalizing the goal of assimilation. Grace talks about the discipline of diversifying her world and seeking out professionals who operate through a decolonizing lens. Grace shares with Abi & Meghan how she is seeking safety for herself and her son, particularly over this past year with the unprecedented increase in anti-Asian attacks. They discuss inclusion, allyship, solidarity, and how Grace is stepping into her power as an Asian woman and parent. As always, thanks for listening!

Maclean and Jordan discuss the awful discovery of 215 children buried at Kamloops Residential School, the thread of Indigenous reconciliation that must run through all our politics, and more.

Warning: Explicit Conversations About Politics, Culture, & Sexuality But The End is never far, and it's Bon Voyage to Love Boat Captain Gavin MacLeod (gone at 90), a religious Christian but randy romantic who gave me this great interview at the Hollywood Show 2014: https://youtu.be/iD7t_GOdWRE The Church was great for Captain Gavin, but it has been horrific, in countless cases, for Native Americans. We also mourn the American Indigenous genocide: 150,000 First Nation children separated from their parents and forced into Church-run Hells like Kamloops Residential School in Canada where 215 remains were just discovered. And wasn't the treatment of indigenous tribes in the U.S. at least as bad?  How to end these societal inequities and corporate Perma-Wars? We just “keep on truckin'” and trying… and masturbating! I'm sure Karl Marx masturbated, as did Groucho. It's part of what it means to be human, and to accept it in ourselves and others is part of what it means to be humane.   Brothers and Sisters, Lovers and Sinners of all Masturbation Nations around the world: Whether your particular nation condemns masturbation as a sin or just calls anyone who does it a “sex addict,” we all do it, at least sometimes (or even several times a day!).  We are One World in Wanking.  Don't miss our post-show throwback, “Masturbation Not Occupation,” featuring antiwar activists, musicians, politicians, comedians and porn stars, including Brittney Blaze who squirts up a patriotic storm for Da People.  It's Holy Water, Brothers and Sisters.

What led to this?  Guest: Dr. Matthew Chow, MD, President of Doctors of BC. Chapter 5: Gender diverse youth part 2.
