Hello and welcome to the 28th episode of my trip! Today's episode is the fifth one of our road trip across Canada and the USA. When leaving to backpack the world this year, we always intended to return to our campervan in Vancouver and drive to the east coast. In this episode, I am covering our trip from Regina to Riding National Park in Manitoba all the way to Thunder Bay in Ontario. A serious amount of ground is covered in this one as we smash past 1000 km. Riding National Park was a little dream of a place by Clear Lake, a must-visit in Manitoba. We then headed for our first big city break in Winnipeg where we rented out an Airbnb to have a day of doing nothing as well as discovering the city on either side of that break. We survived the awful roads of Winnipeg as we headed out East towards Thunder Bay via Kenora which was a 700 km day! A lot of driving in this one with great views. We finish off with a free night at a boat launch to pull back on the overspend of our budget.The places visited - Riding National Park - Clear Lake, Winnipeg, Kenora + Thunder BayTotal KMs - 1700kms!Thanks to Laura Hammond for supporting this podcast, she does so by purchasing a membership every month on my Patreon.

Alan Cross on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 5/25/22   About Alan Cross -     I've always been a geek.  Just ask anyone I went to school with or any of the girls I tried to date.   My obsession with music began at age six when my grand­mother gave me a transistor radio—an old Lloyds—which spawned an all-consuming fascination with things that came over airwaves.  A few years later, my uncle—who moonlighted by servicing jukeboxes—kick-started my record collection by dumping a box of old 7-inch singles on me one Sunday afternoon.  I was hooked.   In October 1980, I got my start at CKUW at the University of Winnipeg, which, at the time, was a closed-circuit station.  Our broadcast range was limited to one hallway and one cafeteria.   After graduating I ended up at CJRL in Kenora, a 1,000 watt AM station that broadcast to the people and wildlife of Northwestern Ontario.  From there, it was on to KX-96/Brandon and Q94-FM/Winnipeg before I ended up at CFNY (renamed The Edge) in October 1986.  I'd first heard about the place through Rush's “The Spirit of Radio” when I was still in high school and remember thinking to myself “Wouldn't it be cool to work there one day?”   After fifteen years as a CFNY/Edge in a variety of announcer gigs, I moved to program director at Y95 in Hamilton, overseeing, in part, a frequency change that made the station Y108.   In 2004, I started a four-year stint as the station's Program Director (where I was somehow named Canada's PD of the year in 2005, 2006, and 2008), my latent geekiness once again came to the fore and I became Senior Program Director for Corus Interactive, the online arm of Corus Radio. My last project with Corus was as Head Curator of ExploreMusic, a truly unique online and on-air feature dedicated to music discovery.   Oh, and that radio show.  The Ongoing History of New Music debuted in February 1993 and since then it's…well, it's taken on a life of its own. There have been over 720 one-hour episodes making it (I think) the longest-running music documentary in Canada and one of the longest in North America—if not the world!   When that (temporarily) ended, I started a new show called The Secret History of Rock which ran for 100 two-hour episodes on stations across the country. (I own the rights to all those shows. I'm hanging on to those in hopes I can syndicate them globally. Anyone interested?)   After leaving The Edge/Corus in June 2011, I spent a couple of years working with various broadcasters:  Astral/Bell, Jazz-FM, Pattison, and NewCap.  Then I hooked up with Central Ontario Broadcasting, the Barrie, Ontario-based company that owns Indie 88 in Toronto.  I was part of the team that launched the station and became the voice of Indie for a year.   On August 1, 2014, I moved back to Corus as a sort of consultant/strategist–and The Ongoing History was revived as of September 1 of that year.   Then, on March 1, 2015, I co-founded the Music Technology Group and Event series with Andrew Dick and Nathalia Ribeiro. The group is for anyone who is interested in connecting with veterans in the Music and Technology industries and those who simply love music and want to learn more about how technology has shaped the way we consume, create, and monetize music. The Music Technology events take place in Toronto, every 4-5 weeks. The group is free to join and the events are free to attend.   I had a weekly national newspaper column in the Metro commuter paper (since gone bust), four published reference works on alt-rock, and four audiobooks under the banner of The Alan Cross Guide to Alternative Rock. Those books are also available chapter-by-chapter through iTunes. Just search for my name under “audiobooks.” Oh, and there's a children's book called The Science of Song. These days, I write a weekly column for GlobalNews.ca.    In January 2015, I co-founded Major League Mixes, a company that assists sports teams in getting their music mix right for their games. Our first client was a good one: The Toronto Maple Leafs. Learn more about Major League Mixes and all that we do here. Too bad that thing folded due to circumstances beyond our control.   What else?  I was a script editor for the documentary Who the F@#k is Arthur Fogel. There was ExploreMusic-TV on Bite-TV and Aux.  The inflight audio programming I did for Air Canada for years. The consulting. Working for the now-defunct Songza (I was disgarded when it was bought by Google). The various TV appearances.  The official biographies I wrote for rock bands.  Appearances in dozens of documentaries.  The magazine articles. The narrations.  The voicework, The consulting. The speaking gigs and lecture series. The Science of Rock'n'Roll travelling museum exhibit. The traveling to music festivals and conferences around the world (not to mention other places for pleasure and sheer curiosity). And did I mention that I hosted Reach for the Top for one season?   Jeezus, no wonder we don't have kids.   Oh… I almost forgot check out my Audiobooks and new children's book on Amazon!   About The DJ Sessions -   “The DJ Sessions” is a Twitch/Mixcloud "Featured Partner” live streaming/podcast series featuring electronic music DJ's/Producers via live mixes/interviews and streamed/distributed to a global audience.

Is the OPP Failing Northern Communities? The Ontario Provincial Police operates 165 detachments across Ontario. The cost formula determines how much money municipalities get for their police services, but for some northern cities and towns, that has become a big problem. Recently, the municipalities of Kenora, Pickle Lake, and Sioux Lookout formed a coalition with the goal of reducing policing costs. We invite mayors of two of these municipalities, as well as a First Nations Chief, to look into the challenges they face to keep their communities safe.

The search for a perfect picture is like the pursuit of a flawless fish – a seemingly impossible task packed with enough challenge to bring photographers and anglers back day after day. It is this exhilarating chase of perfection that drives Jay's work. Armed with a rod in one hand and a camera in the other, Jay's love for photography was born on lakes, ponds, and wherever his chase for the next bite would take him. His desire to digitally represent the world around him began with 50” Muskies and 12-lb Walleyes. Jay recognizes that a good camera is to photography what a good rod is to fishing – a necessary tool that is nearly useless without a deep and balanced understanding of the craft. Jay's keen eye for visual composition and his experience working professionally in the field provide him with the foundation to succeed in a talent filled industry.   In the fall of 2011, Jay's camerawork helped launched the birth of Uncut Angling. Uncut has gained 200,000+ subscribers and over 45,000,000 views on Youtube. It provides viewers an exceptionally raw and real perspective, capturing the chase of trophy fish. In the Spring of 2018 Jay formed Thrive Visuals, his own production company specializing in the outdoor world. Specifically fishing and hunting content creation. They have had the honour of working with such brands as Travel Manitoba, Honda, and Alumacraft Boats. At the same time as Thrive Visuals was launched Jay decided it was time for another creative outlet and decided to put more focus into producing content for his personal YouTube channel.  The channel quickly rose to over 40,000 subscribers and is an outlet for him to share and teach of his loves of fishing, hunting, videography, and everything in between. Jay recently made the move to Kenora, Ontario where he spends his days fishing in NW Ontario, Manitoba, and beyond. Jay prides himself on creating content that is suitable for all ages. Capt. Ross Robertson has made his complete living chasing walleye as a full time professional angler for more than 20 years. Through the years he has worn many hats including time as a fishing guide, boat salesman, TV host, outdoor writer, product designer, tournament fisherman, speaker, radio host and podcaster to name a few. Ross fishes ice-out to ice-up on the Great Lakes. He spends the majority of the year walleye fishing on Lake Erie's Western and Central basins.

Ep 366 - Every Child Matters -  The Lonely Death of Chanie Wenjack Guest: Michael Downie   On January 19, 2022, Chanie Wenjack would have turned 67 years of age. He died in 1967 at the age of 12 after running away from a residential school in northern Ontario. He tried to walk close to 400 miles in the cold weather to get back home.    Chanie was a member of the Ojibway and he was attending the Cecilia Jeffrey Residential School in Kenora, Ontario. He became lonely and ran away. He died trying to get home to see his father. His story is heartbreaking. It is one that Gord Downie of Tragically Hip shares in “Secret Path,” the beloved singer's last solo musical and video release.   Downie said, “I never knew Chanie, but I will always love him. He haunts me. His story is Canada's story. We are not the country we thought we were.” In his last on-stage performance, he called out to Prime Minister Trudeau to fix the problems in northern Canada, saying, “It's maybe worse than it's ever been, so it's not on the improve.”   According to the “United Nations Index on Human Development - Quality of Life,” people who live on band or reservation lands in Canada have a standard of living that is ranked 63rd in the world. The rest of Canada is ranked 6th. According to former National Chief of the Assembly of First Nations Perry Bellegarde, “6th versus 63 is an enormous gap in the standard of living. It's a gap that represents a disproportionate number of First Nations people in prisons; it represents the high youth suicide rate, which is four to five times the national average; it represents 40,000 indiginous children in foster care and it represents a cap on education funding that is close to half of provincial averages.”   Micheal Downie, the Tragically Hip singer's older brother and the filmmaker who produced “Secret Path,” carries on the work of the foundation the two set up, the “Downie Wenjack Fund.” The fund calls on Canadians to build a better country and to see the people we've been trained to ignore.   Stuart McNish invited Michael Downie to join him for a Conversation That Matters about the need to build awareness, advance education, and enhance connections between all peoples in Canada.   Please become a Patreon subscriber and support the production of this program, with a $1 pledge https://goo.gl/ypXyDs

The “Wendigo” is a monstrous, malevolent cryptid that pursues human flesh at all costs. Folklore, traditional knowledge, and even some alleged “modern-day” sightings of the Wendigo have caused people to speculate this creature could be more than mere myth. - This evil mythical creature is based in the northern forests of Nova Scotia, the East Coast of Canada, and the Great Lakes regions. Sightings are still reported to this day, especially near the “Cave of the Wendigo” near the town of Kenora in Ontario, Canada. - In addition to ruthlessly murdering and shredding its victims to pieces, the Wendigo may also possess humans and induce “Wendigo psychosis”, a psychological state in which the possessed individual will suddenly crave human flesh and turn on anyone around them. - The Wendigo is alleged to be 2-3 times the size of a normal man. It is decrepit and sickly looking, covered with blood-stained and matted fur, lipless with a mouth lined with jagged teeth, long arms with razor-like claws, and hooved feet. It is also extremely nimble, so it is almost impossible to defeat. - Humans that have resorted to cannibalism, or extreme greed, or acts of murder can BECOME a Wendigo through strange transformational means. - Herein, we discuss the folklore and traditional knowledge that alleges the existence of the “Wendigo”, stories associated with Wendigo killings, how Wendigo's are created, how to overcome the nimbleness of these creatures and defeat them, and other alternative theories that may explain this legendary cryptid. - What say you? #cryptid #mythology #monster
