Sylvia Olsen married into Tsartlip First Nation in the 1970's. She moved onto the reserve where she and her husband raised four kids. I am one of those kids.
For the past two decades Sylvia has worked in on-reserve housing. In 2016, she received her Phd. in history from the University of Victoria where she completed one of the first academic studies on the history of the on-reserve housing programs in Canada.
Dr. Olsen's ground-breaking work is based on her unique perspective of the past, the present and the opportunities for the future of housing in First Nations communities in Canada.
In addition to her research, she also works in First Nations communities across the country. She teaches housing management to First Nations housing managers. And, she works with the Assembly of First Nations Chiefs Committee on Housing and Infrastructure. Dr. Olsen is also currently working with the B.C. First Nations Housing and Infrastructure Council.
This interview is likely just the first in a series of discussions we will have on this topic on The Public Circle Podcast.
