First Nations, Pierre Trudeau and Canadian Indigenous Relations
The relationship between the Canadian government and First Nations people is examined through the lens of the 1969 White Paper introduced by Pierre Trudeau, which sought to abolish legal distinctions for indigenous peoples. Justin Trudeau has attempted to distance himself from his father's legacy by promising a "nation-to-nation" relationship. The hosts also touch on Pierre Trudeau's personal life, including his past relationships with Barbra Streisand and Margot Kidder.
