Let's Talk About...

Change is dif­fi­cult. It feels scary, con­fus­ing, and unnat­ur­al. Espe­cial­ly when it con­cerns a major part of who you are. As sil­ly as it sounds, just like when peo­ple retire, or get divorced, or in Jason’s case, step away from the sport they love, Cana­di­ans are cur­rent­ly reck­on­ing with their lives as Cana­di­ans. With the dis­cov­ery of 215 chil­dren buried on the grounds of a Kam­loops res­i­den­tial school, the tear­ing down of stat­ues of Egerton Ryer­son and John A. Mac­don­ald, and the recent attack on a Mus­lim fam­i­ly in Lon­don, Ont. it is becom­ing painful­ly obvi­ous to many aver­age Cana­di­ans that our coun­try, and our his­to­ry, is dark, is taint­ed, and has impacts that reach into the mod­ern day.

But what can be saved? Is Cana­da evil? Are Cana­di­ans wrong? Do we need to destroy this coun­try because it was built on shaky and stolen foun­da­tion? No says Jason, we just need to change our rela­tion­ship with it. One Cana­di­an at a time. That’s what this rant-heavy episode of LTA is all about.
