Shane Pelletier, Executive Director of the National Indigenous Homelessness Council, joins us for a powerful conversation on why Canada’s mainstream responses to homelessness keep missing the mark for Indigenous communities. Drawing from lived experience and national advocacy, Shane breaks down how disconnection from land, culture, and identity, rooted in colonialism and residential schools, drives Indigenous homelessness. We talk about what doesn’t work, what actually does, and why community-led solutions are the only real way forward.
