Indigenous people have long stressed the unspeakable horrors of residential (boarding) schools in North America. Last year, those horrors were made inescapably real for many when mass graves were unearthed at multiple school locations in Canada. Since then, the fight to confront the colonial and genocidal function of these schools has ramped up, and that fight reached a new height when a delegation of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis leaders met with Pope Francis at the Vatican—a meeting that was followed by a formal apology for the Catholic Church's role in driving the residential school system. In this installment of The Marc Steiner Show, Marc welcomes back journalist Brandi Morin, who was at the Vatican for last month's historic meeting, to discuss the ways that the colonial violence embodied in residential schools lives on today.Brandi Morin is an award-winning French/Cree/Iroquois journalist from Treaty 6 territory in Alberta, Canada. Her work has appeared in numerous outlets, including Al Jazeera English, The Guardian, The National Observer, The New York Times, Vice Canada, and CBC Indigenous.

We have a certain image of the sort of person who reports encounters with Unidentified Flying Objects. It's a ... skeptical image, to put it mildly. And it couldn't be further from the truth, at least according to the actual reports that are filed. And there are actual reports. Dozens of them. Filed by pilots and crew and air traffic controllers — not exactly the sort of people you'd expect to be claiming they saw a UFO in the sky. They report them, though. The question is what happens to those reports? GUEST: Daniel Otis, for Vice Canada

With no vaccine arriving in Canada this week and the rollout unequal across the country, it will be over three years to vaccinate all Canadians at the current pace. It is within the federal governments power to invoke the Emergencies Act and implement a national strategy, so why haven’t they? Governor General Julie Payette has resigned after abusing working Canadians in her employ and creating a culture of toxicity. How was this her history of abuse overlooked? This whole scandal begs the question, do we really want or need the crown? Canadian white supremacy and hate aren’t hidden in the shadows, they are well out in the open. A report this week by Vice Canada shows just how openly racist, hateful, and Islamophobic we are. Fighting back against hate in our society starts with us. Support this podcast

In the last couple of weeks, journalists of colour are speaking out more than ever about their experiences with racism in the workplace. And they’re also publicly pushing back against content published by their own employers that they see as problematic. The New York Times described what’s happening as a revolt erupting in America’s biggest newsrooms, and it’s happening in Canada too. Today, we’re joined by Global News producer Alley Wilson and VICE Canada senior writer Manisha Krishnan.

A large part of my personal growth years coincided with my best professional growth years, and between 2016 & 2018, they were spent at Vice Canada. A great friend I had the pleasure of working with and continue to work with now that our time at Vice is done, is Jabbari Weekes. We sat down and talked about our experiences there, and what being a Corporate Mandem in media (in Canada) looks & feels like. Watch the short series, 'Next Stop' here - https://youtu.be/jkrWiATmrxE

Our first review is “Cool Mules” from Canadaland. Vice Canada music editor Slava Pastukhov believed the only way to advance at the gonzo news outlet was through more extreme journalism. A mix of greed and ambition led him to orchestrate a drug trafficking ring to Australia.  OUR SPOILER FREE REVIEW OF “COOL MULES” BEGINS IN MINUTE 34 Next is a look at Netflix’s foriegn-language series, “The Valhalla Murders.” This police procedural is the latest in the growing number of shows set in Iceland which try to capture their own version of Scandianivan noir. But does the story capture either that dark Scandi style...or the interest of streaming mystery lovers?

In 2015, five young people were arrested for smuggling cocaine into Australia. They had a common connection: Slava P, a music editor at VICE Canada. At the time of the bust, Slava was silent. But years later, he decided to sit down and tell us everything. CANADALAND senior producer Kasia Mychajlowycz has turned those conversations, and subsequent reporting, into our new investigative series, Cool Mules. Kasia talks with Jesse about how the story came together, the ethics of giving Slava a platform and what it all says about the media.

We’ll talk to Allen from Yellow Vests Canada Exposed, a group which documents and exposes the white nationalist and neo-nazi elements in Canada’s Yellow Vest movement. We’ll talk about how this movement conflates the interests of massive oil corporations with the interests of the working class - and how the media has often conflated the two as well. Twitter.com/VestsCanada Patreon.com/YVCE Then we’ll talk to Tannara Yelland, a student and freelance journalist who moved from Saskatchewan to Toronto and landed a job at Vice Canada in 2015, and subsequently kicked off the successful union drive at Vice Canada. We’ll talk about some of the barriers journalists face in participating in any sort of open quote political activity, including anti-fascist organizing, and why more journalists need to see themselves as part of the working class.

Manitoba votes on September 10th in its 39th Provincial election to fill the 57 seats of the Legislature. But despite a fixed election date law, Premier Brian Pallister has chosen to go to the polls over a year earlier than necessary. Why you may ask? Some opinions lean towards the Conservative brand gameplan of solidifying enough Provincial governments to enable the possible amendment of the Canadian Constitution with a Federal Conservative win this October. Some opinions point to the building protests and resistance against his austerity measures requiring a new mandate to continue with any seeming legitimacy. There is no question about the turmoil the Pallister government has caused in three years. Healthcare has seen strikes and consolidation as facilities close and wait times grow. Education has seen ideological interference linked to funding. Environmental policy has disappeared with little regard. Social programs have been slashed, addiction grows and adequate housing and services disappear as privatization spreads. Indigenous policy has hit a low point as issues continue to grow. Nothing has been immune as the "Premier of Costa Rica" plays the role of "Father Knows Best". Is there a viable alternative? James Wilt is a freelance journalist and graduate student based in Winnipeg and can be found on twitter at  @james_m_wilt. He has written for The Narwhal, VICE Canada, The Globe & Mail, Briarpatch and National Observer. Currently working on a book about public transportation for Between The Lines Books, James joins The View Up Here to analyze and discuss the Manitoba election based on his comprehensive piece in Canadian Dimension titled "The Devastation Of Manitoba: An Autopsy Of Pallister's Austerity Regime" available here https://canadiandimension.com/articles/view/the-devastation-of-manitoba

Choo Choo! Do you hear that? It's the union train barreling toward your workplace! We're still on that union vibe and this week we're talking with Tannara Yelland, a historian and journalist who started the union drive at Vice Canada.

This week, the whole show is devoted to the fight over the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion that has pitted the Alberta and federal governments against BC, local municipalities, and First Nations who object to the project.

Conspiracies! They're out there... and Vice Canada's Mack Lamoureux is getting to the bottom of them. You name it, he's covered it: The Berenst(a)ein Bears. Hollow Earth Theory. Iraq Stargate... But what happens when these twisted narratives stop being just kooky, and start getting scary? As extremist right-wing groups grow their presence in Canada, and around the world, there's a personal cost to covering conspiracists. Mack's 8-month-long investigation into Canada's armed, anti-Islamic "patriot" group — 'the III%ers'— is alarming: "Connected to the anti-Islam sentiment is a sense of paranoia in the group, one that is reinforced by the sharing of debunked news stories and far-right wing commentary from sites like Rebel Media or Infowars. The members of the group, like their counterparts worldwide, are distrustful of mainstream news and often stray into extreme conspiratorial territory." Mack Lamoureux joins guest host Omar Mouallem.  For more on extremist right-wing groups in Canada, check out COMMONS' deep dive from this past July. — This episode of CANADALAND is brought to you by PayTM.
