By centering the voices and experiences of Metis individual from the Settlements, this episode highlights the nuances of Metis identity, the feeling of being “different” within Indigenous spaces and the importance of recognizing the Settlements as distinct self-governing communities within Canada’s broader landscape that deserve a seat at the table and the opportunity to voice their perspectives.
