Red Man Laughing - The Romeo Saganash Interview

Published: Feb. 9, 2015, 6:17 a.m.

In this episode of Red Man Laughing we bring you to Winnipeg where Ryan and NDP MP Romeo Saganash (Abitibi/James Bay/Nunavik/Eeyou) walk & talk through the Canadian Museum of Human Rights. 

A lot of the interview is spent on the two men talking about Saganash's private members bill, Bill C-641, an act to ensure that the laws of Canada are in harmony with the United Nations Declaration of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP). 

Also throughout the episode McMahon & Saganash cover "selling out" and "working for the man", the reaction Saganash's home territory had when he announced he'd be running for the NDP, the importance of the Indigenous Vote in the upcoming federal election and what real reconciliation might look like in Canada through the eyes of the NDP.
