Re: Longtime broadcaster Dan Smoke passes away

That’s sad news, I used to watch their commentaries on CFPL 20-25 years ago and I remember learning a lot about Indigenous issues in Ontario long before the modern era of Truth and Reconciliation. I had the chance to meet both him and Mary Lou in 2002 when they came to my church, they were doing a presentation about local First Nations culture for a group of pilgrims from abroad who were visiting London. Dan seemed like a very nice guy.

I think CTV London had a playlist of Smoke Signals. But since they changed the interface to watch newsclips. it is no longer possible to find any clips of Smoke Signals.
