For over two centuries, the Métis have fought for recognition as an Indigenous people and as a Nation. It’s a story worth telling, but until recently, it hasn’t been heard enough.
The title of this podcast and the book refers to the fact that the Métis truly are people born of this land — well before Canada became a country of its own. 
Your host is David Wylynko, a media consultant, writer, former journalist, and co-author of The True Canadians. His co-author, Patricia Russell, is a Métis writer and a former CBC journalist. While they were touring the country to promote their book, they discovered that readers wanted to know more about the people, places, events, and milestones they've featured in the pages of The True Canadians. A podcast seemed to be the best way to share what they’ve learned.
Find out more about the book at The True Canadians website.
Intro and outro music performed by Métis musician Alex Kusturok.
