Ep 2: One Nation, Many Leaders - MNC President Cassidy Caron
In a week where the Manitoba government announced the historic decision that it would formally recognise Métis resistance leader Louis Riel as the province's honorary first Premier, it seems fitting that our latest episode is called "One Nation, Many Leaders."In this episode we're focusing on one specific leader, Métis National Council President Cassidy Caron, two years after she became the first female elected female elected leader of the MNC. In this thoughtful, lively conversation, host Matt Lemay and Caron talk about her meteoric rise to the MNC presidency in her late twenties and the path that took her there. They also get into her childhood in Rossland, BC, the family who grounded her in Métis traditions, her family's deep roots in historic Métis communities of Batoche and St. Louis, Saskatchewan, and those who mentored and continue to advice her in her role as leader, including the acclaimed Métis author Maria Campbell and a group of Kookums who she continues to talk with on a regular basis. They also get into highlights of her time in office, including the Papal visit at the Vatican with Residential School survivors, the ongoing issue of governments recognizing those Métis Residential School survivors, Métis self-government agreements with the federal government and more.Host Matt LeMay is a citizen of the Métis Nation of Ontario, with roots in the Red River, Drummond Island and Penetanguishene. He is a documentary film-maker and co-founder of Indigenous Geographic. Our theme music is "Harry Daniels" by Métis fiddler John Arcand."One Nation, Many Stories" is produced by the Métis National Council, and David McGuffin of Explore Podcast Productions.For more on the work of the Métis National Council, visit metisnation.ca (metisnation.ca)
