À propos de cet audio
In this episode of the Rez Dog Walkers Podcast, we are honored to welcome former Member of the Legislative Assembly, George Abbott. In his 17 years as an MLA in the Shuswap riding, George took on a plethora of responsibilities, from Minister of Health to Minister of Aboriginal Relations and Reconciliation. Since leaving government in 2013, George has utilized his experience in various capacities, including as a consultant, a PhD student, and the former chair of the Institute for Health System Transformation and Sustainability. He is currently the chair of the Board of Technical Safety BC and is a government-appointed Commissioner on the BC Treaty Commission.
Join us as we discuss the role of indigenous perspectives in politics following a challenging provincial election and pay tribute to a good friend and mentor, the late Stan Hagen. George also discusses his work on the BC Treaty Commission and his upcoming book, Unceded, a compelling look at the tumultuous history of the B.C. government’s relationship with Indigenous peoples, and why it matters in contemporary reconciliation efforts.
