AFN national chief calls Trump’s comments on Canada joining U.S. offensive

  • Summary

  • Donald Trump has sparked controversy with threats to make Canada the 51st U.S. state. Cindy Woodhouse Nepinak, National Chief of the Assembly of First Nations, shares her response, calling Trump's remarks offensive and highlighting the effects on both Canada's sovereignty and Indigenous sovereignty. She discusses her concerns and the broader implications for Indigenous nations with host Marcy Markusa.


    Also on the podcast today, we explore a pressing issue faced by unhoused Winnipeggers during the winter months: where can they turn for shelter from the cold? According to Health Sciences Centre officials, the hospital's emergency room serves as an unexpected warming space on especially frigid days. We hear from activist Al Wiebe, who highlights the city's deficit of warming spaces and the need for better public awareness and alternative solutions.
