I’ll be doing my CBC Radio Active column, Who We Are, at a special time today because of the holiday yesterday. Please tune in after the 3pm news to hear me try and untangle the complex history and present-day Metis community in Edmonton with the help of former Poet Laureate and metis writer, Anna Marie Sewell.
Anna Marie and I sat down in the City Hall School space earlier this week to chat about her family’s story and the cultural landscape in the city. I hope you enjoy our chat and if you’re looking for more information, please check out the links below!
