The elephant in the room. Kerri raised the question to me… that was brought to her. When asked if ‘riehl conversations’ can create solutions, do we feel we are making a difference? The whole purpose of the podcast was to facilitate that. To bring back honest and heart felt questions and concerns, for our community, our province, and our country. If after listening to the podcast you have more questions and are burning to dig deeper then we are accomplishing what we set out to do. The intention of media is not to spoon feed solutions, or have all the answers…but to provoke you to thought, and create conversations of your own. Go ahead and ask questions! Debate and have conversations with friends and family over political and current events, over our country’s lawmaking. If we don’t talk about these things openly, it will be almost impossible to find impactful and lasting solutions that affect the Government as a whole, our community’s and the laws that we find ourselves subjected to.

Today Kerri wanted to reflect on the life of one of Manitoba’s original founding fathers Louis Riel. His passion to do what he deemed right, how he was villianized by the Government leaders of the time, hung, then became a historical figure representing freedom against oppression. Do we as a society learn from our mistakes or are we doomed to repeat them? Can you draw any parallels to the times we are experiencing now as a nation now? What about the use of the Emergency Measures Act and injustices our Federal Government and current Prime Minister impose on peace loving Canadians that just wanted to be heard. Truth always surfaces, it will all come out in the “wash”.

Today on ‘riehl conversations’ Kerri Riehl and I reflect on social media and anti bullying week. How do we respond as individuals? How do we impact each other in our community? And how do you want to be remembered? Facebook or Twitter be damned. It’s time to remember words have the power to build up and to destroy. Be accountable.

Today Kerri and I discuss Joshua Boyle and the Prime Minister’s approach to dealing with conflict, avoidance and dead ends.  How to contact your MP, amd MLA to wake up as a nation. To facilitate much needed change  of leadership and direction.

Is the old adage true “if you’re not for us you’re against us?” What are the Prime Minister of Canada’s goals, where is he leading our country, how has he and Mainstream media affected us as Parklander’s, and how do we bridge our differences as a community whomever you support? How do we support the Constitution and our rights and freedoms under these laws?

In our podcast today Kerri and I explore more about Yorkton Saskatchewan and Saskatchewan as a whole. What are our neighbours to the West doing differently as a province? And how can we benefit by adopting some of their policies which seem to be working?

Your hosts Kerri Riehl and Tamara Michèle discuss local education, government restrictions and how they are impacting our children, lack of support, disappointment and resiliency and our kids’ current state of mental health. How do we come together as a community?
