MONTREAL — Focus Montreal introduces Montrealers to people who are shaping our community, bringing their stories into focus.
It airs on Saturday at 5:30 p.m. and on Sunday at 11:30 a.m. and at midnight.
Take a look at who we’re meeting this week on Focus Montreal:
Canadians faced their dark history when the head of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission called the country’s residential schools debacle a cultural genocide.
As the Commission tried to turn the page, Mike Delisle Junior, the Grand Chief of the Mohawk Council of Kahnawake, sat down with Jamie Orchard to talk history, politics and culture.
The classic Montreal coming-of-age novel “The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz” is being made into a musical.
Artistic Director of the Segal Centre Lisa Rubin stopped by to talk about the story’s controversial ending.
The Jasmin Roy Foundation
Quebec Premier Philippe Couillard vowed last June to put an end to bullying in schools.
But with a government operating on a mandate of austerity and budget cuts, it was up to groups like the Jasmin Roy Foundation to step in and lend a helping hand.
Dr. Tara Wilkie, the Director of Social and Emotional Learning, tells Jamie Orchard about the importance of creating a positive and welcoming school climate.
