Welcome Dear Readers. This month we are discussing Walking the Bypass by Ken Wilson

You are listening to Time to Read, a Winnipeg Public Library podcast book club.  We are recording today from the Millennium Library in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. We are located in Treaty One Territory, the home and traditional lands of the Anishinaabe (Ojibwe), Ininew (Cree), and Dakota peoples, and in the National Homeland of the Red River Métis. Our drinking water comes from Shoal Lake 40 First Nation, in Treaty Three Territory.
