Welcome to our new podcast series! Dear Canada is a series of audio postcards that follow the journey of The Tale of a Town’s storymobile as it crosses the country to capture the collective community memory of our main streets, one story at a time, leading up to Canada’s 150th anniversary in 2017. Featuring uniquely local voices from towns and big cities across each province and territory, each postcard will reveal a telling tale about Canada’s disappearing downtown culture. Hosts Charles Ketchabaw and Lisa Marie DiLiberto mix the most compelling interviews gathered as part of their national oral history project with inquisitive commentary addressed to listeners across the country. Authentic, light-hearted, thought provoking and insightful these postcards provide a glimpse into a generation of extraordinary stories about ordinary life on main streets across our nation.
