Join us for a witty and eye-opening dive into Canadian history as we tackle the claim and comment left on our socials, "Canadians that happened to be white built Canada." This podcast episode shreds this myth, reminding the history-forgetters of the vital contributions of Chinese laborers, those enslaved from Africa and the Caribbean, and Indigenous communities. We explore pivotal moments like the Multiculturalism Act and the 1970s immigration changes, all while pointing out how wealth was often built on backs of underrepresented peoples. Expect lively debates, no-holds-barred truths, and a sassy critique of Canadian historical misconceptions. Share the love and stay informed with our engaging conversation!
