Truth, Reconciliation, Tradition, and Tech

Ahead of the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we connect with two people blending Indigenous and Western knowledge to make a big difference in their communities. Later in the episode, we hear from a Real Talk subscriber in grade 12 re: Jason Schilling's "education in crisis" comments on our September 26 episode.

1:50 | Linea Xaysana and Twylla Soosay explain how tradition and technology influence their personal and professional lives.

44:00 | Real Talker "EC," a rural high school student, responds to Ryan's September 26 interview with ATA president Jason Schilling.

1:01:30 | Did you hear about the Edmonton woman who nailed TWO holes-in-one during a single round of golf? Jespo and Johnny discuss what they'd do in a similar circumstance.

1:09:10 | Brent's heard enough from the teachers, and Lynette sounds the alarm on underfunding education. Stick around for Jespo's rant after a night at the theatre in this edition of The Flamethrower presented by the DQs of Northwest Edmonton and Sherwood Park!

When you visit the DQs in Palisades, Namao, Newcastle, Westmount, and Baseline Road, be sure to tell 'em Real Talk sent you!

Fabulous Real Talk today. Their message is so important. Nice to see your donation to today’s conversation rather than a beer fridge.

Another great episode --- loved the Truth and Reconciliation beauties---thank you for sharing. Great conversation on secondary school system and the Flame Thrower was too funny!

If parents want the choice of private school, they can pay for it. No public dollars should go to private or religious systems.
