This Remembrance Day, Canadian Salad shares a powerful conversation with Lisa Wallace, a former member of the Royal Canadian Navy, veteran, and current Royal Roads University student. Lisa opens up about her experiences as a Black woman in Canada’s Armed Forces, her reflections on the recent CAF apology for systemic racism, and what true remembrance looks like when we include every person who served.
Host Andrea and Lisa explore how representation, respect, and collective memory can reshape how Canadians honour those who sacrificed for the country — especially those whose names have been forgotten.
