Face-to-Face
with Patrick Scott


"Teachers at Deh Gah School in Fort Providence invited Patrick Scott to talk to students about his experiences as a cameraman at the Berger Inquiry.

Before Patrick arrived, students watched his videos about the Indigenous news team. Then each pair of students thought of a question to ask.

When Patrick arrived, he showed students his heavy old camera and film canisters. That put them at ease. They were ready for the interview.
