These days, more and more people are taking their dogs to work with them. But how many can say their dogs actually help out at work? Or even help save lives? We know one… Meet Zelda Helten.

Jordan Kawchuk brings us the story.

The Pulse's John Zee speaks with John Su who runs Indigenous Innovations, which operates out of 122 E. Hastings St. Indigenous Innovations aims to help First Nations break down barriers to accessing quality health care. They also help feed the community and provide Naloxone kits to those in the DTES through their First Nations driven programs.

John Su is passionate and dedicated to this cause and together, we discuss the barriers Indigenious people face when accessing health care and how Indengious Innovations help bridge connections between First Nations people and the medical care system.

We also discuss how racism within the medical care system is alive & well in 2021 and how Indegnious Innovations wants to bring reconciliation for First Nations people to the medical care system.
