  • Truth and Reconciliation for All Peoples: Disability and Indigeneity - Part 2

    Truth and Reconciliation for All Peoples: Disability and Indigeneity - Part 2
    Sep 26 2025

    National Day for Truth and Reconciliation takes place on September 30th, 2025.

    To mark this important day, Joeita Gupta created a two-part documentary that explores how reconciliation efforts can be made to include Indigenous peoples with disabilities.

    Join Joeita on this learning experience, as she speaks to experts, academics, and people with lived experience about the ways that reconciliation efforts exclude people with disabilities, parts of Indigenous communities. And we’ll learn about the colonial way with which we approach truth and reconciliation.

    In Part 2, we’ll hear from Walter Wytek Chan, Kevin Morgan, and John Ward to learn about how crucial it is that truth and reconciliation considers all peoples in Canada. Plus, a statement from the Assembly of First Nations that explains what they’ve been doing to advocate for the rights of Indigenous peoples with disabilities.

    Our guests will also weigh in on how they feel organizations have included people with disabilities in their broader truth and reconciliation efforts.

John Ward is a Professor at the University of Sydney and the author of the book Indigenous Disability Studies, and he shares his expertise about how Indigenous knowledge about disability should impact truth and reconciliation efforts. Walter Wytak Chan works at Algoma University, and he tells us the four ways that colonialism and the government have perpetuated hardships for people with disability in Indigenous communities. And Neil Belanger is Chief Executive Officer of Indigenous Disability Canada, and he shares his unique perspective on how Canada’s colonial legacy impacts people with disability. Our guests will also weigh in on how they feel organizations have included people with disabilities in their broader truth and reconciliation efforts.

  • Can I Touch Your Dog: A Closer Look at Guide Dog Etiquette

    Can I Touch Your Dog: A Closer Look at Guide Dog Etiquette
    Sep 25 2025

    Service animals are more than pets, they’re expertly trained companions who empower their handlers with freedom, safety, and independence. And now, let’s factor in the public.

    How do handlers deal with strangers petting their dogs without permission, asking invasive questions, or ignoring clear boundaries?

    Nisreen Abdel-Majid takes us inside a day in the life of guide dog handlers to better understand what it truly means to rely on a guide dog, and why respect and understanding from the public makes all the difference.

    Runa Patel and Jeff Berwick, both experienced guide dog handlers, share powerful stories from their experiences. Landra Berwick, a professional guide dog instructor with decades of varying expertise offers insight into the thoughtful, rigorous training that goes into preparing these human-animal relationships for success.

    Let’s explore the realities of this working relationship, and figure out how the public fits in.
