Toban Talks

This week’s episode fea­tures inter­views from Open­Fest co-orga­niz­er Anders Swan­son and a cou­ple mem­bers from Win­nipeg band and Open­Fest head­lin­er Roy­al Canoe, where they gave their rea­sons why they believe the Portage and Main inter­sec­tion should be open. We also had a lengthy and inter­est­ing dis­cus­sion with Kim Tall­bear, asso­ciate pro­fes­sor in the depart­ment of native stud­ies at the Uni­ver­si­ty of Alber­ta and a lead­ing expert on the use of DNA test­ing with­in First Nation com­mu­ni­ties, as well as one mem­ber of the round­table cur­rent affairs pod­cast, Media Indi­ge­na. It is, of course, still sus­tain­abil­i­ty month, and we had a chance to speak to anoth­er per­son, Chan­tal Delaquis, one of the direc­tors of sus­tain­abil­i­ty on the Arts Stu­dent Body Coun­cil, who helped kicked off the Arts com­post­ing pro­gram on Octo­ber 15. Final­ly, we spoke to UMFM sta­tion man­ag­er, Jared McK­e­ti­ak, to talk about Pledge-o-Rama.
