With the federal election campaign heading into its last days, party leaders sharpen their messages to voters. Mark Carney leans into the public fear of American annexation, while Pierre Poilievre details the changes he'd deliver in his first 100 days if elected prime minister. Both the NDP and Bloc Quebecois leaders argue they'd have vital roles to play in holding the major parties to account. Polls still show the Liberals with a lead over the Conservatives, one reason being the seats the Liberals are poised to snatch from the Bloc Quebecois. For the first time in 20 years, the Liberals are threatening the Bloc in Northern Quebec, where the pitch is for voters to join the winning team.  The U.S. culture war takes another turn. The FBI arrests a sitting judge in Wisconsin, accusing her of helping a man wanted for deportation to evade the immigration officers waiting to nab him outside the courtroom. It was the last day for the public to pay respects to Pope Francis. People crowded into St. Peter's Square in the Vatican – for a last farewell. A delegation of Canadian officials led by Governor General Mary Simon has arrived in Rome ahead of tomorrow's funeral for the pontiff. And more….

Chris Smith had long made a tradition of planning annual motorcycle adventures with friends and family. The year before, their trip was cut short when several people dropped out due to various challenges. This time, with a smaller group, they pushed farther—riding through active wildfires on their way to the end of Quebec's remote Trans-Taiga Road. After a night camping at the Caniapiscau Reservoir, they began the ride back toward Radisson as the smoke thickened and the sky darkened. Pressing on, they discovered the road south had been closed due to the fires. Stranded for a couple of days, they made the most of it—sharing meals, swapping stories, and strengthening the bonds that make these adventures unforgettable. This wasn't just another ride. It was a reminder of why they go: for the adventure, the challenge, and the connection.

Interview with Justin Reid, President & CEO of Troilus GoldOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/troilus-gold-tsxtlg-binding-lois-change-everything-6626Recording date: 14th March 2025 Troilus Gold stands at an inflection point as it advances its flagship copper-gold project in Northern Quebec toward production. With a recently secured $700 million debt financing package and gold prices reaching $3,000 per ounce, the company represents a compelling investment opportunity in the precious metals sector. The Troilus project boasts impressive scale and economics, including a 22+ year mine life producing over 350,000 gold equivalent ounces annually, an after-tax NPV of $3 billion, and potential for $350 million in annual free cash flow.Troilus has systematically addressed key developmental risks, creating a clear pathway to production. With $700 million in debt secured with favorable terms, permitting in final review stages, and an experienced development team assembled, the company has positioned itself for success. Pre-construction activities include detailed engineering with BBA (engineers behind Detour and Malartic) and active site preparation including pit dewatering.Management has crafted a sophisticated financing approach that minimizes dilution while ensuring adequate funding. Using a 70-30 debt-to-equity structure on the $1 billion capital requirement, finalizing offtake agreements for concentrate sales, and strategically positioning to monetize a new royalty or stream for up to $400 million, Troilus has created multiple funding options beyond traditional equity raises.With a current market capitalization of approximately $165 million against an after-tax NPV of $3 billion, Troilus presents a compelling valuation opportunity. CEO Justin Reid draws comparisons to similar-stage peers that have seen significant revaluation upon financing completion. Several macroeconomic factors further enhance the investment case, including rising gold prices, global copper concentrate shortages, the expanding margins created by Canadian dollar weakness, and increasing focus on secure critical minerals supply chains.The next 12 months present several potential catalysts that could drive revaluation, including finalization of offtake agreements, completion of royalty/stream financing, financial close on the debt package, final permitting approvals, and ultimately a construction decision. As Troilus Gold transitions from developer to producer, investors have a rare opportunity to participate in a gold-copper project that combines scale, economics, jurisdictional advantages, and strategic relevance in today's commodity environment.—Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.com/companies/troilus-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Erik Wetterling, Founder and Editor of The Hedgeless Horseman website, joins us to discuss some of the larger recent merger and acquisition deals in the higher quality projects in tier one jurisdictions, and the value arbitrage that is setting up in the high-quality gold development projects of size and scale that are still held by juniors.   We start off also noting the recent $5Billion takeover of De Grey Mining (ASX:DEG) by Aussie major gold producer Northern Star Resources (ASX:NST), for their Hemi gold project in Western Australia. We also recounted the last few divestments by Newmont Corp (NYSE: NEM) (TSX: NGT) where Dhilmar is acquiring the Éléonore operation in Northern Quebec, Canada for $795million, and there was also the $850 million sale from Newmont of the Musselwhite mining operation to Orla Mining Ltd. (TSX: OLA) (NYSE: ORLA).   This leads to a discussion of the big disconnect in the value of gold development projects with significant gold resources and compelling economic studies in place, that are trading at a mere fraction of where these most advanced assets are at the time of their sale.  It is a nuanced discussion, where we review that not all ounces in the ground should be valued the same, and we get into the quality of the project, the proximity to other major operations, the jurisdiction premiums and discounts, and whether or not the project has already attracted strategic investors in the form of larger producers.   In full disclosure, Integra Resources mentioned by Erik in this interview, is a position held in his personal portfolio, and also may be site sponsors of The Hedgeless Horseman website at the time of this recording. Additionally, Shad is a shareholder of Integra Resources at the time of this recording.   Click here to visit Erik's site – The Hedgeless Horseman

Lithium Exploration: Eureka's New Junior Company Jeff Wilson discussed Eureka, a new exploration company focusing on the lithium space. The company, listed on the Canadian Stock Exchange a year and a half ago (Stock symbol:  ERKA), raised significant funds and started field exploration in 2023. Jeff also highlighted the role of a renowned prospector, Shawn Ryan, who brought a thesis about potential lithium exploration in an overlooked area of Canada. Michael D. Levitt expressed interest in the company's approach and the promising lithium readings from government surveys. Electric Vehicles and Lithium Demand Rise Michael and Jeff discussed the increasing global demand for electric vehicles and the subsequent need for lithium, a critical component in lithium-ion batteries. They noted that governments, particularly in California and China, are pushing for electric vehicle adoption, which will further strain the demand for lithium. Jeff highlighted how automakers are investing in the lithium sector to secure their supply and prevent potential disruptions in production. Michael pointed out that this is a significant shift for the auto industry, as these companies are now directly investing in parts production, a trend not seen since the days of Henry Ford. Northern Quebec's Mineral Potential Discussed Michael D. Levitt and Jeff Wilson discussed the mineral potential of Northern Quebec. Jeff highlighted the region's rich mineral history, particularly in gold, silver, copper, and nickel. He emphasized the importance of large land packages for exploration and the need for infrastructure support. Jeff also mentioned the presence of Kobold Metals, a private company with notable investors working nearby, which he sees as validating the region's potential. Jeff concluded by mentioning that people can find more information about Eureka Lithium Corp on their website.   https://eurekalithiumcorp.com/

Rosalie Mednick Nepom and her brother Sol Mednick were born in the mining town of Rouyn-Noranda, Que., and grew up there–the children of a local grocer. Meanwhile, Dr. Issac Katz is the son of the community's first permanent rabbi. Now, these former Rouyn-Noranda residents have collected memories and stories of growing up in the once-vibrant pioneering Jewish community, and published them in a new book so their grandchildren will know where they came from. Rouyn-Noranda sprung up in the bush in the 1920s after prospectors discovered gold and copper deposits. It was so far north, it took 10 hours by bus on gravel roads to get there from Montreal. But at its peak, Rouyn-Noranda's 45 Jewish families enjoyed a vibrant community life. That ended in the 1970s, as young people left to go to university and never returned. Their parents soon followed. The once-busy synagogue closed in 1972. Today, as the authors explain on The CJN Daily, the facade is a historic site, but the buiding is now apartments—and Jewish life there is hard to find.

In the early 1960s, the Canadian government launched an experimental programme to take academically promising Inuit children from their homes to be educated in Canada's cities. The aim was to produce administrators who could spearhead development in the north of the country, but the project came at a great cost for the children and their families. Adamie Kalingo, born and raised in Nunavik, Northern Quebec, speaks to Maria Margaronis about being taken away at the age of 12 in 1964, his years living with a white family in Ottawa, and his eventual return.

The Troilus project has access to infrastructure which includes a network of maintained roads, a substation and tension power lines maintained by Hydro-Quebec. The project also has a permitted tailings facility as well as an operating water treatment plant. The junior gold environment currently faces a lack of liquidity due to the retail investment community investing less. Reid believes that the disconnect between a company readily receiving institutional investment and the lack of retail investors may be accredited to a decrease in disposable income, leading to retail investors being hesitant to invest in junior companies. Reid believes that there will be a shortage of gold stockpiles in the future, creating an opportunity for junior developers. He believes that a retail investor should look for companies that have assets in safe jurisdictions, which show size and scalability and are also well capitalised for the advancement of their projects.Troilus Gold Corporation recently announced assay results from the Southwest and Gap Zones at the Troilus project. The highlights of the assay results include high-grade gold mineralisation at the Southwest Zone of 92 g/t and 68 g/t gold over 1 m and 3.07 g/t AuEq over 15 m. The Gap Zone drilling results show mineralisation of 4.2 g/t AuEq Over 7 m, which includes a 1 m intercept of 22.81 g/t AuEq. The company is preparing to initiate an 11,000 m drilling program at the Gap Zone which will be aimed at identifying and better understanding the zone's mineralisation.

In Episode 17: Our guest this week on the podcast is Dr. Lauren Erland, research associate at the University of British Columbia, Kelowna. Dr. Erland shares and discusses with us Artic native plant species and their conservation in the face of climate change. The area of Dr. Erland's study was Inuit Nunangat, a unique cultural, political and geographic zone that encompasses, Nunavut, and Northern Quebec, Labrador and the Northwest Territories. Lauren explains a little bit about the botanical exploration of this area as well as botanical collection methods of seeds, traditional and tissue culture vouchers.  Also discussed in this episode is the invitro method of plant propagation using agar with a plant tissue culture as a substrate medium for germination of historically difficult to propagate flora.

In this episode, we chat with Belinda Labatte, CEO and Director of Lomiko Metals which is a Canadian junior exploration and development company with properties in Quebec. They are focused on the development of two main graphite and Lithium projects. Belinda has more than 15 years of senior management experience in mining. She has also worked in the capital and investment markets, for 20 years. Belinda tells us more about the exciting changes that Lomiko Metals has recently gone through and the vision of the company moving forward.   KEY TAKEAWAYS To be successful, companies need to represent the interests of all stakeholders. Including, the country they are working in. Lomiko Metals is focused on providing Canada with the critical minerals they need for energy creation. Minerals that are sustainably and ethically mined. The board is majority female, which gives the company a different perspective and approach. Building relationships, collaborations, and partnerships with the community is different from simply ticking boxes to secure permits. Graphite is one of Canada´s 31 critical minerals. It is considered a national security priority. By 2040, the market shortfall is going to go from 200,00 tonnes to millions of tonnes for graphite, by which point, Lomiko Metals will be in production. Modern mines need to be decarbonized. Critical mineral companies are increasingly looking at getting involved in processing as a way to produce a truly green product. Be open to all kinds of collaborations and partnerships, it is the best way to solve complex problems. Drilling is starting at La Loutre in February, along with environmental and metallurgic studies. Later in the year, they are going to start exploring their lithium asset, in Northern Quebec.   BEST MOMENTS ‘I was touching on both the mining and energy spaces, which has impacted my perspective on critical minerals. ´ ‘70% of (electric vehicle) projects being developed are in Canada… so we can develop a strong supply chain here.' ‘Mining is a very small part of what Lomiko does… we are a new energy business. We supply a stable and secure source of critical minerals.'   EPISODE RESOURCES Website: https://lomiko.com/ LinkedIn: https://ca.linkedin.com/in/belindalabatte Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/LomikoMetals/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/LomikoMetals Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lomikometals/   VALUABLE RESOURCES Email: rob@mining-international.org Website: https://www.mining-international.org/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rob-tyson/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/MiningRobTyson Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DigDeepTheMiningPodcast/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theminingpodcast/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/DigDeepTheMiningPodcast/videos   ABOUT THE HOST Rob Tyson is an established recruiter in the mining and quarrying sector and decided to produce the “Dig Deep” The Mining Podcast to provide valuable and informative content around the mining industry.

The moose is the largest of all deer species, standing about five to six and a half feet tall. Moose require habitat with adequate edible plants; grasses, young trees and shrubs, cover from predators, and protection from extremely hot or cold weather. Moose travel or migrate among different habitats with the seasons to address these requirements. Moose are cold-adapted mammals with thickened skin, a dense, heat-retaining coat, and a low surface volume ratio, which provides excellent cold tolerance but poor heat tolerance. Moose survive hot weather by accessing shade or cooling wind, or by immersion in cool water. In hot weather, moose are often found wading or swimming in lakes or ponds. When heat-stressed, moose may fail to adequately forage in summer and may not gain adequate body fat to survive the winter. Also, moose cows may not calve without adequate summer weight gain. Moose require access to both young forest for browsing and mature forest for shelter and cover. Forest disturbed by fire and logging promotes the growth of fodder for moose. Moose also require access to mineral licks, safe places for calving and aquatic feeding sites so they do move from season to season. The autumn season of 2003 was quite mild across northern Canada and on November 15 as the moose started their migration trek from Northern Quebec to the Labrador Sea it stalled car and truck traffic. Moose had to use the highways because the ground was not frozen due to unusually warm weather. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

This week on I Wish I Knew EDU, It's P1 or Ramona's conversation with Dawn Fyn @AFynClass about her EDU journey, #safeschools, equity & diversity, teaching/unlearning in Northern Quebec, the 80/20 split and promoting a positive school culture.

On this week's episode of the Legacy of Hope Foundation's Roots & Hoots, host Gordon Spence is delighted to be joined by Alex Flaherty. Alex is from Iqaluit, Nunavut, and spent his childhood in Grise Fiord, the most northern community in Canada. With a small population of less than 200, Alex's grandparents moved in the 1950s from Northern Quebec to the High Arctic, where they had to adapt to difficult hunting and living conditions. Alex grew up hunting and camping with his father, which inspired his passion for the outdoors and his reverence for the stunning landscapes of the North. These experiences, coupled with his strong connection to the land, and his enthusiasm for place-based learning, helped spark Alex's vision for what would become his company, Polar Outfitting.

For some, grammar has a reputation for being the "boring" aspect of language learning. However, grammar is fascinating! All languages have their own unique grammatical system, and there is so much potential for it to be taught in a way that is engaging. For that reason, in this episode we are joined by Professor Mark McAndrews to talk all about the history and different approaches to teaching grammar. Professor Mark McAndrews teaches courses in Concordia's B.Ed. in TESL and M.A. in Applied Linguistics programs. He has previously taught in the U.S., China, and Nunavik, Northern Quebec. In this episode we'll be addressing the questions: how can teachers make teaching grammar more engaging and student-centered? How have our approaches to teaching grammar changed over time? What discussions about grammar can we have with our students? Music by Nomerodin1

POEMS FOR THE JOURNEY by Christina Watkins This collection of poems tells stories about a few people and events which have been formative in the poet’s life. Carefully selected and told from the poet’s heart, these poems invite readers to consider their own personal formative experiences with people, places and events. The photos on the pages immediately in front of each poem prompt readers’ own memories and imaginations. ‘Travelling with Sister Mary Luke Tobin,’ is set in the intimate space between two good friends driving a blue highway towards home in Denver, Colorado. The older woman, a nun, and younger woman, the writer, like to tell each other stories when they are together. What unfolds on the car ride towards home is a story that resonates with Peter’s betrayal of Jesus by Peter’s denying that he knows him. Silence is mentioned and also present all the way through the poem. ‘Like Light in Running water’ holds up to the light of understanding what the poet knows about her beloved grandfather’s story. ‘Waves,’ is a playful yet poignant sestina about the poet’s family who grew up on the shores of Lake Erie. The repetition and arrangement of the sestina’s selected 6 words at the ends of the lines move the poem along with the energy of growing up and losing beloved family in movement towards a place of wider new life. ‘Diamonds and Sutras’ is also a playful sestina about living one’s life. ‘The Way Things Are Is Large,’ is a villanelle which holds up the largeness of ‘The Story’ which seems to be the model or blueprint for all our lives. Christina Watkins: teacher, soul friend, pilgrim, poet, wife, mother and grandmother. I was born in London, in Southern Ontario, Canada. When I was a child, we spent our summers at a family cottage near our grandparents’ cottage on the shores of Lake Erie. Since I married my husband, who is a geologist, we have lived in Australia, Ottawa, Mexico, Northern Ontario, Northern Quebec, Vancouver, Toronto, Denver Colorado, Scottsdale Arizona, Vancouver (again) and now in Victoria British Columbia. I like to walk and hike and dance, listen to music and write poems, read, go to the movies and attend theatrical and musical productions. I love the experiences that come from meeting people, connecting with people and learning about their lives. I live with my husband in Victoria. One daughter, her husband and three sons live near us in Victoria. One son, another daughter, a grandson and agranddaughter live in the US. https://www.amazon.com/Poems-Journey-Christina-Watkins/dp/1648589650/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=poems+for+the+journey+matchstick+literary&qid=1614302887&s=books&sr=1-1 http://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/chriswatkinsml.mp3 POEMS~POEMAS by Christina Watkins These are simple poems about significant feelings and the coming to new consciousness in a particular woman’s life. The poems invite the reader’s own reflections. The white sea of space around each poem suggests that something meaningful has been noticed and highlighted. The way the poems are presented, a photograph that takes up two pages followed by each poem, Spanish on the left hand page and English on the right, enhances the wide spiritual and reflective circle of the poems. The two languages together invite readers to learn some words from a second language. ‘The Ancients Say,’ speaks of separation and the feelings of the heart that yearn for a larger more lasting connection. ‘Close Together’ speaks of the mysterious union of opposites which love and trust engender. ‘This One,’ is a poem about the power of particular love which invites a person’s joyful expansive commitment into something bigger. https://www.amazon.com/Poems-Poemas-Christina-Watkins/dp/1637900015/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=Poems-poemas+matchstick+literary&qid=1614302977&s=books&sr=1-2

In February, Ryan Atkins took on his Seven Summits challenge. For seven days, he climbed, virtually that is, the highest peaks on each of the world’s continents. The place where he actually gained all that elevation was in and around his home in Sutton, Que., a little more than 100 km east of Montreal. The way he climbed was on a fat bike one day, on a virtual riding platform another and on a gravel bike as well. He also ran and skied his way to the high elevations he needed to reach.You might remember hearing Atkins on this podcast more than a year ago. He and two other riders took on the Wapusk Trail, the world’s longest winter road that runs from Northern Ontario to Manitoba. He’s also been part of bike-based expeditions along James Bay and in Northern Quebec.About 10 years ago, Atkins raced mountain bikes in Canada Cups and a few World Cups, such as Bromont and Mont-Sainte-Anne. He was a world unicycle trials champion, in 2006 and 2008. More recently, he’s been focused on obstacle course racing. He’s been the World's Toughest Mudder six times, the Spartan Ultra world champion twice and the OCR world champion. He likes to push and challenge himself.Atkins’s Seven Summits challenge is, well, bonkers, especially the day he gained 6,961 m on a treadmill. That’s the height of Argentina’s Aconcagua. What attracted Atkins to this challenge with its jaw-dropping difficulty, both physically and mentally? The athlete seems to have a superhuman enthusiasm for daunting, repetitive tasks. Still, he found very cool moments throughout the challenge. They were more than just silver linings, but insights he would have never gotten otherwise. He also ate a lot of cookies and gummy bears.If you think you might want to try climbing Seven Summits yourself, you’ll hear some tips that will help you with your own bonkers challenge.

This question comes from Meg in New Canaan NY. Hi Victor Hope all is well with you and your family. I have a question with regard to sustainable building practices in real estate investment projects. We have been designing our homes using more sustainable building practices for the past several years. Here in NY, the requirements for clean energy are set to get even stricter and, on top of that, we have a moratorium on new natural gas lines in our area that I don’t envision the state lifting in full. For residential, natural gas is not supplied to a development unless there is already gas on site and upgrades to the existing meter are not allowed. For commercial projects it is similar although I don’t know all the specifics. I was wondering how you are handling the call for clean energy, energy reduction, and sustainability in your projects. As well, are you seeing any appreciation from the buyers/renters/investors for your efforts to provide cleaner energy and more sustainable, energy efficient buildings? Are people willing to pay more rent in these types of projects or willing to purchase for more of a premium? Do you have more or less investors interested in these types of projects? Thank you for your time. I always appreciate your perspective. Meg, This is a great question. There are two ways to answer this question. Don’t develop in NY State. There are so many easier places to develop with less overhead, less bureaucracy, lower taxes, stronger demand, better profit margins, and on and on. But that’s not a very good answer to your question. 2) If natural gas is no longer permitted for new installations, you could comply by putting in an electric system and simply pushing the environmental problem onto the electric utility. The old resistive systems are very inefficient and among the most costly to operate. Still, NY has access to relatively cheap power. New York State gets 44% of its electricity from burning natural gas. 30% comes from nuclear, and tt buys 18% of its electricity from the James Bay hydroelectric project in Northern Quebec and Labrador. This environmentally friendly alternative to burning fossil fuels flooded 4,500 square miles of forest causing incalculable ecological damage to this ancient boreal forest. But since there were only about 5,000 native indigenous people living in the area, the impact was deemed acceptable and the project got pushed through and built with no environmental assessment. NY state still has four coal fired electric power plants in operation. Natural gas is among the cleanest burning fuels in existence. It’s a bit hypocritical that they’re converting coal fired plants to natural gas at the same time as they’re telling homeowners they can’t use it. We have not found a meaningful metric that would make the benefit of a low emissions system attractive to tenants. We have found that achieving energy efficiency requires a number of changes to the design. In fact, it has more to do with choice of materials than anything else. This includes more expensive, more highly insulated windows. Naturally, each of these choices increases the cost. Closed cell foam insulation is more effective than other forms of insulation. But again, it costs more. By far the most effective and cost effect method of providing heat to a property is by using a geothermal system. This is like a heat pump, except that the heat source is the thermal mass of the ground rather than trying to extract heat from the winter air that is potentially very cold. These systems require a fair bit of land or a deep well in order to gain access to a meaningful heat source.

During today’s show Nora will provide us with an update to prepare our consciousness and awaken the dormant DNA and the dormant consciousness of who we are back into the regular format of a higher molecular magnetic field in our bodies. It will be done thru the so below magnetic fields of Gaia and her whales and it will be aligned above and beyond intelligence of the dimensions to crossover into our crystal DNA threads that will be awakened and tapped into by the whales. The consciousness of the Whales is moving into the consciousness of humanity. This is the crystal consciousness of the whales connecting into the elevating consciousness of mankind thru telepathcially synchronizing the master codes of consciousness into all species of consciousness. Above and beyond, above and so below. We are ready to accelerate into the ascension of becoming crystalline light bodies. These whales will be communicating with us and coordinating with us to become telepathically aligned to their grid system. This is the highest form of connecting and communicating in consciousness. We are moving into higher realms in the 9-9 Gateway when the star realms connect with us. It’s the highest level of communicating because the whales house all of consciousness for the grid system of the planet and the universe.

Now based in Montreal, growing up in Northern Quebec. Beatrice Deer spent a lot of time outside in her Inuit community of Quaqtaq. Her village was small (population of about 350/400) and very tight knit. Raised in a big family, her parents brought music into their house and would often play around the house as well as expose Beatrice to music in their church where they served as pastors. Even though her town is so remote, you can only access it by plane, she had access to plenty of popular music: Disney soundtracks, Grease, Michael Jackson and so many music videos from MuchMusic (the MTV of Canada). Because MuchMusic was not available at home, she would tape videos while visiting Montreal. She sings in English and French, but she mostly sings in her native Inuktitut, which she feel most comfortable in expressing herself. Through the influence of her community and the pop music she loved growing up, she created a genre of music: "Inuindie" and has released three albums in that style.Beatrice has overcome a lot in her life: sexual abuse, alcoholism, toxic relationships, depression and thoughts of suicide.  The starting point for her latest album, My All To You, was a desire to relive the moment in when she decided to transform her outlook and do some serious work on herself. Now an advocate for mental and physical well-being as well as for her Inuit community, she travels the North in Canada visiting First Nation communities. She plays with her band, performs speaking engagements about overcoming trauma and offers professional development training. I'm grateful to Beatrice for sharing her story on the podcast! American Songwriter Podcast Network Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands

As society slowly returns to activity, there is no denying that our conversations among one another have changed. Covid-19 has awakened us and brought to light fragilities in our current system. Though we have demonstrated our ability to transform many of the ways in which we conduct business, we see more clearly the elements of society that we must work harder on. One of the most pressing issues that demands our attention is the significantly large portion of the population that is not in good health.  Remote indigenous populations are among those who suffer most from health inequality. It is imperative that we acknowledge that these populations represent the failure of our system to foster diversity and support communities far from urban centres. Indigenous people live closest to the natural environment and therefore are most impacted by the deterioration of our ecosystem and poor government polocies. Diversity is our only safeguard for the future of our planet and should we fail to recognize the urgency to reestablish the health of these remote communities, we risk failing our planet.  This weeks guest is Dr. Bernard Reid. He is a family care practitioner in North Eastern Canada. He shares his learning experience and insights into working with these unique remote communities.  In this episode we discuss:  The Waskaganish region in Northern Quebec where Bernard practices as a doctor in family medicine.  Waskaganish is a very rural region that poses very unique challenges to practice medicine.  Bernard describes the diverse medical conditions that present daily in his clinic.  Urban settings verses rural settings and how they differ in a family medical practice.  Bernard acknowledges the challenges of being thrust into this rural setting and dealing with such a variety of medical conditions after only 2 years internship.  We discuss the incredibly steep learning curve in the first year of a medical practice.  Bernard’s passion for the unique challenges that come with practicing family medicine in a remote region.  The unique challenges the region had to face with Covid-19.  The health status of the indigenous people in the James Bay region.  The rates of chronic diseases among indigenous people. Very high rates of obesity, diabetes, chronic kidney disease, and coronary heart disease.  The major challenges of health inequality.  Our imperative to respect and embrace cultural diversity as an absolute requirement to safeguard our planets future.  The systematic destruction by Western practices to destroy the indigenous way of life.  The root cause of many of our cultural problems is the disregard for the indigenous people through colonial practices.

This episode features an interview with Kassandra Churcher, former Executive Director of the Canadian Association of Elizabeth Fry Societies and the current Assistant Director for Post-Secondary Education services for the Inuit in Nunavut.Our last podcast featured an interview with Nontombi Naomi Tutu and Mungi Ngomane who spoke about racial injustice and systemic racism in today's America. While the current movement of protest stems from events that have taken place in the US - police brutality, oppression and injustice - we would be wrong to assume that Canada is faring much better when it comes to systemic racism. We spoke about the issues from a Canadian standpoint with Kassandra Churcher, an advocate for education and women's issues whose work has been focused on supporting oppressed minorities in Canadian communities, from incarcerated women through her work at the Elizabeth Fry Societies and through her involvement with Aboriginal communities in Northern Quebec. Kassandra also shared her recommendations for the best way to support minorities and help fight racism in our everyday lives.This season of The Brand is Female is brought to you by TD Bank - Women Entrepreneurs.

Today's new episode of Bridging the Social distance interviews psychotherapist Shane Smyth of Spacious Mind Counselling and Psychotherapy Centre. Shane is based out of Guelph, but during this interview I reached him in a small Cree community in Northern Quebec. We talk about the role and space for counselling and support in times of crisis, the process of trying to adapt to online for platforms for therapy, mindfulness, ADD, and lots of other interesting topics. Shane shares a quote, how we "can't remember the future", and don't yet know the full potential we have for caring for each other. While recognizing the heaviness of our current situation, we also explore the positive possibilities, including moving away from the patriarchy towards the feminist concept of the sharing of power.This interview was originally recorded on March 25th 2020 Get on the email list at bridgingthesocialdistance.substack.com

Nasha Kasha tells the story of one of 24 internment camps. It happened during the First World War. Of the 24, this one was in Northern Quebec, near Amos in the Abitibi Region. Like the rest, it was exclusively for Ukrainians, who committed no crime.

This week I sat down with the mother of all mothers, my mom, Diana Greig Stavert.  Diana Greig Stavert has over 30 years of mothering experience and at 70 years old, sure has a story to tell. We went on a journey from learning how to produce maple syrup in her back yard in the 1950's to the challenges of being a working woman in the 60's and delivering babies as an outpost nurse in isolated communities in Northern Quebec, to being an 'older' mother in the 80's & 90's. This was an emotional episode for both of us as she tells us about her experience with miscarriage* and post partum depression.  My mother is one of the most open hearted and generous women I know and I am proud to share Her Story with you.   *some of this conversation may be triggering for some. Cet épisode se déroule en anglais seulement. Je vous promets que le prochain épisode sera bilingue!

Southern New England is hungry for more clean energy, and states like Connecticut and Massachusetts are turning to Hydro-Quebec for its excess hydropower.There's one sticking point: they need a new transmission line to get all that power from Northern Quebec. And citizens in the states that could host new transmission projects -- New Hampshire, Vermont and Maine -- are resisting construction plans.A lot of attention has focused on controversial transmission projects like Northern Pass. But what about the source of the electrons feeding the line? In this week's podcast, we talk with Sam Evans-Brown, a journalist who's been exploring the history of Canadian hydro. It's a decades-long story filled with conflict, controversy, racism, and billions of dollars at stake.Sam is host of the Outside/In podcast. He and his colleague Hannah McCarthy just published a 4-part audio series, called Powerline, about the hydropower working its way down to the Northeastern U.S. We'll talk about the stories they uncovered.Then, Cape Wind is dead. We’ll have a eulogy.And finally, we'll discuss that tax bill again.

This session's guest has been running independent tours for people of all ages through some of the colder regions of the world for over 20 years, including tours of Alaska and sailing trips to Antarctica - both of which really piqued my curiosity. Laurent Dick grew up in Switzerland and like so many of the Swiss, speaks four languages. And for the past 25 years, he’s lived in Alaska with his wife and son where started his tour company, Wild Alaska Travel. I’ve always been curious about the 49th State — and what’s waiting up there, so I’m curious to hear from Laurent about why he moved there and what it was about the place that he fell in love with. And then there’s Antarctica, a destination so many people dream to visit — yet seems so inaccessible and extreme. What We Cover: Laurent moved to Alaska after accepting an invitation to go mountaineering in British Columbia How spending two weeks alone in the wild traversing 2000 miles on a river through the Yukon Territory gave Laurent insight on what he wanted out of life, and how you can find the same through solo travel by taking the leap of faith The cultural and spiritual element of Alaskan native cultures. How there can often be more of a community in the more remote areas of the world. Laurent's near death experience after capsizing alone in freezing rapids in Northern Quebec and how that forced him to reevaluate the way he values his time. What are the Northern Lights and what time of year can you catch them? The best way to experience Alaska by getting off the beaten path, including witnessing and becoming a part of the Iditarod. The local foods of Alaska, like moose. What compelled Laurent to visit Antarctica and how he takes his guests down there.
