In Segment one we catch up on a few stories from Indian country including a new RCMP detachment at Montreal Lake Cree Nation, a look back on Mary Simon's influence as Canada's first indigenous Governor General, a swiss collector who's holding 3,500 ceremonial and traditional indigenous artifacts, wants to get rid of them for a price and a new Clean Drinking Water Bill is introduced, but many are skeptical.
In Segment two - we turn to indigenous influences on television. Brittany Caffet talks to the show runner of a new Saskatchewan-made children's series that's using storytelling, culture and a puppet to teach Nakoda. And the new re-boot of Little House on The Prairie is diving much deeper into its indigenous characters and avoiding racial stereotypes, which the original did not.
