Welcome to season 3 episode 2 with Mr. Braden Etzerza.  Braden is a young queer returning Rupertite / Ts'msyen  that has a degree in Environmental Science.  He is currently employed with the Metlakatla Stewardship Society as the Climate Action Coordinator.  He is extremely passionate about food security & sovereignty as well as finding renewable energy sources among other exciting duties with his nation.  When he isn't working, he is out in nature with his dog Copper, connecting with the calm that our beautiful landscape can provide.  One of his other items on his wishlist is to share some much needed Queer spaces with the local LGBT population on the North Coast.   Apologies ahead of listening as the introduction that Mr. Etzerza provided in his native tongue, was not recorded.   The beginning of the podcast was recorded on March 17, 2021 during the mass vaccination clinic held in Prince Rupert.  The follow up was recorded on the following weekend.   Residents that haven't received their first COVID-19 vaccination shot are still able to call the Prince Rupert Community Health Clinic to book their appointment - (250) 622-6380.   Enjoy the podcast and thanks for listening :)
