Religion and faith. Some immigrants come to Canada seeking freedom to express their faith without persecution. Some immigrants come with religious traditions but cannot find a community to express them. Other immigrants come with no religious affiliation or faith expression at all.  How do we normalize talking about religious beliefs in a way that doesn’t alienate, proselytize or exclude anyone? If Canada is secular, why are certain religious groups often discriminated against?

Take a listen to the conversation between two people with different faith backgrounds.  Andrea shares her journey of deconstruction out her religious Christian upbringing while Hostion generously holds space and curiosity for religion and faith - even if he doesn’t have one. Humanizing one another is what we need, especially for those who believe differently than we do.
