“[The Collective] would like to acknowledge that although we did interview indigenous women for this episode, and you will hear their voices, none of us, are ourselves, indigenous. That being said, we are women, we are Canadians, and we care about understanding our country’s complicated, violent, oppressive history and trying to effect positive change in the future. The mistreatment of indigenous people, the MMIWG epidemic, and the injustices we saw play out in the murders of Colton Bushie and Tina Fontaine have led us to feel that this is a topic which it is crucial we address at this time.”
