Short explanation of the story and how it developed:

On June 21, 2023 we invited Tristan Grant to co-host Information Morning with Jeanne Armstrong on National Indigenous Peoples Day. Also known as Wolf Castle, Tristan is a Mi’kmaq rapper, producer, and singer from Pabineau First Nation, NB. He introduced us to inspiring young people from Wolastoqey and Mi'kmaq communities including his brother who is also an artist.

Resources of the newsroom (money and time) available to complete the story:

Tristan gathered interviews and worked with producer Myfanwy Davies and host Jeanne Armstrong to prepare the program. We discussed the people he wanted to interview, we worked together in the writing and editing of the material and he came into our studio to co-host the program live on June 21st.
