Hello and welcome to the G4 Talks Health Podcast!

Today myself (Dalton), Margo and Colton go to the Health Quality Alberta offices to sit down and speak with our friends Kristina and Maz from HQA. We discuss the partnership with G4 Health and Health Quality Alberta and give us a chance to reflect on our collaborative report engaging with Îyethka and Tsuut'ina communities to discuss End of Life and Palliative Care from a First Nations view. This community engagement helped to build recommendations for a decolonized Îyethka and Tsuut'ina approach to End of Life and Palliative Care, hopefully improving our health system for future generations!

We hope you enjoy and learn from todays conversation. You can visit our website g4health.org for more information of G4 Health as well as more podcast episodes!

It is important to remember the numbered Treaties and Treaty 7 are signed with the Crown, and not directly with the Federal Government. The Federal government holds whats called a "Fiduciary Duty" and hold resources and monies in trust.
