🎙️Real Stories. Real History. Real People.Shaping what I am calling the currentCanadian Renaissance— the grassroots creation of a curious, awakening, and holistically informed Canada 2.0. 🇨🇦You and me. Together. With  msome amazing characters and brand new friends from all eras, domains, and walks of life.
