Buffy Sainte-Marie’s Indigenous ancestry under scrutiny; growing calls for a ceasefire in Israel-Hamas war; and Donovan Bailey on his days as the world's fastest man | The Current with Matt Galloway | Live Radio | CBC Listen
Buffy Sainte-Marie’s claims to Indigenous ancestry are being contradicted by members of the iconic singer-songwriter's own family and an extensive investigation from The Fifth Estate. Matt Galloway talks to CBC Senior Investigative Reporter Geoff Leo and Indigenous scholar Kim TallBear. Then, as the war between Israel and Hamas drags on, there are growing calls for a humanitarian pause or full ceasefire. Galloway talks to Liberal MP Chandra Arya, who is among MPs asking the Canadian government to call for a ceasefire; and Israel's Ambassador to Canada Iddo Moed. And Donovan Bailey was a successful businessman in 1990, who hadn’t run competitively in years. But just six years later, he became an Olympic champion. He tells Galloway about his new book Undisputed, how entering a race on a whim started that dash to glory, and why time slows down when you're covering 100 metres in 9.84 seconds.
Peter RileyNo no #Keshagesh (greedy guts)
You can’t do that no more !
Buffy Sainte Marie - No No Keshagesh
I learned a safety rule
I don't know who to thank
Don't stand between the reservation
And the corporate bank
They'll send in federal tanks
It isn't nice but it's reality
Bury my heart at #Wounded Knee
Deep in the Earth
Cover me with pretty lies
Bury my heart at Wounded Knee. Huh.
They got these energy companies who want the land
And sign #MotherEarth over to pollution, war and greed
Get rich... get rich quick.
Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee
