Streaming Cree

Part of what I hope to do with this blog is direct people to nifty Cree language resources, on-line or otherwise.

Today I want to draw your attention to the Missinipi Broadcasting Corporation. MBC is a radio network that broadcasts across northern and central SK, reaching as far south as Saskatoon. And for 3 hours every weekday (1 to 3 p.m. local SK time), it features programming virtually all in Cree. According to the show's
blurb
on the site, the "Achimowin" show "has been a major part of MBC broadcasts since 1984." It includes news, discussions; phone-ins, sports, weather and more -- all in Nehiyawewin.

Very cool, and I wish Alberta had something like it. That said, the MBC site does stream its programming on-line, so look for the green "listen on-line" button (found on the main page) in the top right corner to check it out!

ekosi maka,
Rick
