Mayor Gondek, Indigenous Perspective on Fort Calgary Rebrand, and Hike for Hospice

Alberta municipalities continue to grapple with the province’s proposed Bill-20, and Mayor Jyoti Gondek has penned an article about how local democracies are worth defending in the face of provincial overreach. We catch up with the Mayor to hear her thoughts surrounding the Bill.

Fort Calgary is gone and has been rebranded to “The Confluence: Historic Site & Parkland”. So what’s in a name? And what is the significance of this change and the historic site itself to Calgary’s Indigenous Community? We discuss the change with Sheryl-Ann Carscadden, General Manager of the “Indigenous Gathering Place Society”.

Finally, space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of Canadian Astronaut Joshua Kutryk. His mission takes-off next week as he’s part of NASA’s mission to the International Space Station. Before he “blasts off’ we catch up with Joshua and hear about his “out of this world” career.
