And, if they did, it seems that a car would probably be one of the best ways to get around. But what if you don't have a car or don't want to use one? Train services are not frequent enough, buses might not get you exactly where you need to go. Flights are expensive and beyond reach of many everyday Canadians. Places all over the world have embraced a more transit-friendly approach, so what's a province to do to get to the same level. We ask four transit and transportation experts to weigh in on how difficult it is to get around in the country's second-largest province and what can be done.

Indigenous children in Canada face significant challenges due to unjust policies and decisions by Canadian governments. They are disproportionately represented in the child welfare system, reflecting the lingering impacts of policies like the residential school system and the Sixties Scoop. These children need Canadians to believe in their worth and invest in their futures. Despite these issues, government actions remain insufficient, worsening the situation.
In this episode of NDN POV, we delve into critical issues surrounding Indigenous child welfare in Canada. Featuring insights from Cindy Blackstock, Executive Director at the First Nations Child and Family Caring Society; Chris Beaver, Indigenous affairs video journalist at TVO and creator of NDN POV; Amber Crowe, Executive Director at Dnaagdawenmag Binnoojiiyag Child & Family Services; and Eva Jewell, Research Director at the Yellowhead Institute, we explore systemic challenges and potential transformative efforts to address these deep-rooted problems and work towards a more equitable future for Indigenous communities.
UPDATE: In a statement to TVO Today, the Correctional Service of Canada says, "The Government of Canada and the Correctional Service of Canada (CSC) remain committed to taking meaningful action to address the over-representation of Indigenous Peoples, including Indigenous women, in the criminal justice system." The agency notes that it hired a deputy commissioner for Indigenous corrections in 2023, created Indigenous Intervention Centres to support Indigenous offenders, and launched the Indigenous Offender Employment Program, among other initiatives. "CSC is committed to a correctional system that leads to safer communities through the safe rehabilitation and reintegration of offenders and meaningful investments in the community, led by local organization.”
NDN POV offers a candid examination of these complex issues, providing valuable insights through the eyes of Indigenous leaders in Canada.

MPPs who want to participate in debate must use one of Canada's two official languages: English or French. Despite the fact Indigenous people have been here for 10,000 years, it was against the rules for any Indigenous language to be used during proceedings at Queen's Park.
That is until Mamakwa brought that to the attention of the Government House leader Paul Calandra. Calandra agreed that made no sense, and so both men worked to change a century and a half long practice.
