Fecha de emisión: Mar 29, 2022

Sol Mamakwa, NDP MPP and member of the Kingfisher First Nation, meets with Kingston City Councillor Jeff McLaren about what to do with the statues and symbols of some of Canada's early political leaders whose policies harmed Indigenous Peoples. McClaren is opposed to removing Sir John A. Macdonald's statue, but is in favour of telling a more complete history. Mamakwa takes McClaren to Sioux Lookout to meet Indigenous leaders who have a very different perspective about how to remember Canada's real history.
