The Fight to Help Preserve the Land


Listen Later

The Anishinabek Nation held the 8th Annual Lands and Resources Forum: Kina-Gego-Naabadosin—Everything is Connected, in North Bay recently. Dave, a former editor for the Anishinabek Nation 1993-2000, interviewed Grand Council Chief Reg Niganobe and Northern Superior Region Deputy Grand Council Chief Melvin Hardy. Scott, meanwhile, sat down with Jason Laronde, the Director of Land and Resources.

The conversations revolve around what exactly the forum is meant to achieve and the issues the Anishinabek leaders are trying to resolve with the provincial and federal governments.


In the introductory banter, however, Scott asks Dave to explain his salty relationship with former Anishinabek News director Maurice Switzer
