Are you into nu metal? Thanks in part to the explosive docu-series like Trainwreck and Woodstock 99, niche bands like Korn and Limp Bizkit are gaining traction again. And while nu metal is, was, and probably always "suck" to many critics, today the genre seems to be having a moment. Today's guest stumbled his way to the front of this digital conversation, which has since led him to launch The Nu Metal Agenda — a place for exchanging "crazy ass moments in nu metal history" and where the diverse and ever-expanding nu metal culture comes together. Music journalist ⁠⁠Holiday Kirk⁠⁠ joins us from his home studio in Los Angeles, California to talk about everything from bad billionaires to high school haters, toxic masculinity in nu metal culture, and making nu metal go viral decades after peak commercial popularity. ________ City and Nuuchimii is independently produced and co-hosted by Maïtée Saganash and Jenn Jefferys.

It's ⁠#WorldAutismMonth⁠⁠⁠ and today we're digging into this fascinatingly complex neurological condition that one of our co-hosts was actually recently diagnosed with (listen to find out who!). Plenty of autistic folks manage to live fulfilling lives, but obviously we don't all enjoy the same privilege as Elon Musk⁠ or ⁠Greta Thunberg⁠ — and navigating a neurotypical world as a neurodivergent person can pose challenges. Viral sensation Ayanna Davis — aka. Phenomenally Autistic to her thousands of followers — joins us to speak to some of these challenges. We'll also learn about her work dispelling ableist myths, and building affirmative community care as a Black autistic artist, author, dance choreographer, and social media influencer from Westchester County, New York. Conservative Member of Parliament Mike Lake also joins us. Mike's autistic son Jaden inspired ⁠a powerful speech⁠ he ⁠recently delivered⁠ in Canada's House of Commons, as well as a bill he managed to fast-track in Parliament after gathering unanimous multi-partisan support. The bill — which was first introduced in the Senate, then sponsored by Lake in the lower chamber — requires Canada's health minister to table a national autism framework in the next two years. Hopefully in a couple years time, this framework will deliver results for the Canadian autistic community. ________ Are you autistic, raising an autistic child, or just hoping to learn more about autism and other forms of neurodiversity?

Canadian healthcare is often mistaken for a truly universal system. Even medical doctors will tell you that while it saves lives, our Medicare still only covers the basics — and universal, single-payer, public Canadian Pharmacare is desperately needed. Today on the pod, Canada's former federal minister of health, the Honourable Dr. Jane Philpott⁠, joins us to expand on her recent op-ed for The Globe and Mail: 'Canada is failing to meet the moment on the cost of medication' . Dr. Philpott also reflects on her time practicing medicine in the Global South, her time in Prime Minister Trudeau's original cabinet in Ottawa, and why she feels we need a "Tommy Douglas 2.0" to drive down the exorbitant costs of prescription medication. ________ "Unless there is a concerted effort to apply pressure on the Federal and Provincial governments, the erosion of Medicare will continue unabated and might even be accelerated. Our best hope lies in the Canadian Health Coalition…for the preservation and extension of Medicare."―Tommy Douglas, father of Canadian Medicare "Canadians have considered the idea of universal drug coverage, as a complement to universal health care, for over five decades. For such a long-standing debate there is a surprising level of consensus. After hearing from many thousands of Canadians, we found a strongly held, shared belief that everyone in Canada should have access to prescription drugs based on their need and not their ability to pay, and delivered in a manner that is fair and sustainable. That's why our council has recommended that Canada implement universal, single-payer, public pharmacare."—2019 Final Report of the Advisory Council on the Implementation of National Pharmacare, chaired by Dr. Eric Hoskins ________City and Nuuchimii is independently produced and co-hosted by Maïtée Saganash and Jenn Jefferys.

Tommy Siegel can read your mind. Not really, but his candy heart comics do reveal the tortured inner monologues of humanity. Tommy joined us from Los Angeles, California to talk about animation, American politics, and his natural proclivity for drawing butts on things. We also learned that when he isn't trying to land a book deal or get published by The New Yorker, you can usually find Tommy birdwatching or making music with Jukebox the Ghost. ___________ City and Nuuchimii is independently produced and co-hosted by Maïtée Saganash and Jenn Jefferys.

Hey bb. It's 2023. We're back!* It also happens to be Galentine's Day, so we're joined by celebrated Anishinaabe pundit Riley Yesno. You might recognize her from television — she's a regular commentator on CBC news and her fam are recent competitors on Canadian Family Feud — or from her prolific body of published work in news and academia. Together we dig into Toronto Mayor John Tory's bombshell resignation, the unanswered calls to #DefundThePolice, urban Native visibility and rights portability off the rez, and (most importantly) the inside scoop on the ultimate fairy tale queer romance.

You definitely know The Simpsons. But you may not know Josh Weinstein — one of the show's original writers from the 1990s. Remember when Homer met Billy Corgan? Or when Milhouse became Thrillhouse? How about the gay steel mill? Well, Josh Weinstein actually wrote those episodes. He worked with comedic icons like Conan O'Brien to craft some of the most quoteable lines ever delivered by America's favourite cartoon family. Today on the pod we sit down with Josh to go over everything from conspiracy theories, to working with celebrities like Glenn Close and The Smashing Pumpkins, to predicting the future, to the ubiquitous Halloween gags in Treehouse of Horror. So pour a Duff (or maybe some Malk), forge your couch groove, and buckle in for some of the juiciest storytelling since Christopher Walken read Goodnight, Moon. ___________ City and Nuuchimii is independently produced and co-hosted by Maïtée Saganash and Jenn Jefferys.

Le Québec est un grand territoire. Pour certains candidats, bataille électorale rime avec longues distances. Comment faire campagne en région éloignée et bien représenter les communautés autochtones et allochtones? Alec Castonguay en discute avec Roméo Saganash, ex-député du Nouveau Parti démocratique (NPD) dans Abitibi–Baie-James–Nunavik–Eeyou, Martin Ouellet, ex-député du Parti québécois (PQ) dans René-Lévesque, et Félix Lebel, journaliste à Kuujjuaq pour Radio-Canada.

Has anything changed since the June 6 2021 terror attack that saw the Afzaal family brutally murdered in London, Ontario? Are Canadian streets any safer today, one year on, for the visibly Muslim? Future lawyer and proud Marsh Iraqi Nur Al Ebeid joins us today to discuss. Nur is working toward her dual degree juris doctor from uOttawa and masters in international affairs from Carleton University. The daughter of refugees, Nur was born in London, ON — a small southwestern Ontario city near the U.S. border. Southern Iraq's marshlands, also known as the Mesopotamian marshes, are still considered by some to be the cradle of civilization. Nur's family were forced out of this region when Sadam Hussein drained these marshes in the 1990s, wiping out thousands of homes and countless wildlife. The original Garden of Eden was once found in this sacred region. Today these once lush, vast marshes are mostly desert. In this episode, we hear from Nur about her ancestors' way of life in الاهوار بلاد ما بين النهرين. We also discuss nationhood, belonging, #OurLondonFamily, Islamophobia, the fallout from bills 21 and 96 in Quebec, and the hate that too often spans generations in this country. ___________ Sources and further reading: Youth Coalition Combating Islamophobia (YCCI Canada) short film: To Yumnah, With Love Canadian political leaders vow to combat Islamophobia in vigil held for Muslim family killed (via Global News) National Council of Canadian Muslims on the Our London Family Act Feds seek special advisor to combat Islamophobia in Canada (via CTV News) Francophone Quebecers increasingly believe anglophone Canadians look down on them (via Policy Options) I was asked to apologize for my question in the leaders' debate.

Russ Diabo and Romeo Saganash square off on Bill C-15 on this episode of Nation to Nation. This is after weeks of trading barbs on social media over the proposed UNDRIP bill.

Our guest on this episode of Face to Face is Cree lawyer and former member of parliament and residential school survivor, Romeo Saganash. Romeo was first elected as an NDP MP for Abitibi—Baie-James—Nunavik—Eeyou in 2011. He decided to step away from federal politics in 2019.

Our guest on this episode of Face to Face is Cree lawyer and former member of parliament and residential school survivor, Romeo Saganash. Romeo was first elected as an NDP MP for Abitibi—Baie-James—Nunavik—Eeyou in 2011. He decided to step away from federal politics in 2019.

Former NDP Member of Parliament Romeo Saganash visits the Ahkameyimok Podcast to discuss how Bill C-15, which works to ensure Canadian laws live up to the requirements set out in the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, builds on his own efforts with Bill C-262. He and National Chief Bellegarde also discus what improvements the bill could use as it works its way through Parliament, and what needs to happen to get it passed before an election call, expected this year. Saganash also talks about his proudest moment as an MP, giving a speech in Cree to the House of Commons, after his long push to allow the use of Indigenous languages in Parliament. Romeo Saganash served as the Member of Parliament for Abitibi—Baie-James—Nunavik—Eeyou for eight years. He was the first Cree person to get a law degree in the province of Quebec and is a proud member of the Waswanipi First Nation. A big thanks goes out to the Red Dog Singers of Treaty 4 Territory in Saskatchewan for our theme song, Intertribal. The Ahkameyimok Podcast is produced by David McGuffin of Explore Podcast Productions.

He also shares with us his decades-long work on the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP).

Le député du NPD s'apprête à quitter la vie politique après 8 ans au Parlement canadien, comme il l'avait prévu. Homme de convictions, autochtone militant au parcours sinueux, comment entrevoit-il sa vie "après la politique"? Et après avoir tant souffert, après avoir vu son peuple vivre tant d'injustices, comment demeure-t-il optimiste?

L’ex-politicien Roméo Saganash relève le moment le plus marquant de l’année en politique; discussion sur la fuite des infirmières du Nouveau-Brunswick vers le Québec; le maire Yves Montigny revient sur les déboires du traversier F.-A. Gauthier; Lise Bissonnette et Yves Boisvert porte leur regard sur l’actualité.

Romeo Saganash says he has been fighting for Indigenous people most of his life. He tabled Bill C-262 in 2016 as it would require Canada to align its laws with the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, which articulates the global minimum human rights standards for Indigenous peoples. That and more on the season finale of APTN Nation To Nation.

Le député fédéral cri Roméo Saganash et le politologue Thierry Rodon rappellent pour leur part l’importance de la Convention de la Baie-James.

In the season premiere of Nation to Nation the hot topic was once again the Trans Mountain pipeline. The Trudeau government has vowed to build the pipeline and properly consult First Nations sitting along its route from Alberta to British Columbia. NDP MP Romeo Saganash calls it all a “farce” saying Ottawa can’t say they are consulting on it and then plan to build it anyway.

Patty and Kerry talk about the Bill Cosby conviction in contrast to the Kavanaugh hearings and find joy in Cree member of parliament Romeo Saganash's unparliamentary behaviour. Shoutout to meme lord Arnell Tailfeathers.

N2N’s political panel debates Bill C-262, on the adoption of UNDRIP. It passed second reading Wednesday night. Conservative Party voted against it, saying it’s being rushed through Parliament. Liberals disagree.

Our congregation voted to make aboriginal rights a top social justice priority. As part of that effort, we will have one of the authors of the UNDRIP speak about the process of creating this document, and its philosophical and ethical implications. Mr. Saganash is uniquely qualified to educate us on this important topic, for he is not only a lawyer and a Member of Parliament – but also a Cree.

In this episode of Red Man Laughing we bring you to Winnipeg where Ryan and NDP MP Romeo Saganash (Abitibi/James Bay/Nunavik/Eeyou) walk & talk through the Canadian Museum of Human Rights.  A lot of the interview is spent on the two men talking about Saganash's private members bill, Bill C-641, an act to ensure that the laws of Canada are in harmony with the United Nations Declaration of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP).  Also throughout the episode McMahon & Saganash cover "selling out" and "working for the man", the reaction Saganash's home territory had when he announced he'd be running for the NDP, the importance of the Indigenous Vote in the upcoming federal election and what real reconciliation might look like in Canada through the eyes of the NDP.
