Jeremy
Torrie (Ojibwe) works as a director and producer for
Canadian television. He is the executive producer of Cool Jobs,
a youth series broadcast on APTN, currently in its third season,
and other television productions. In 2004 Torrie participated
in the Canadian National Screen Institute's Aboriginal Cultural
Trade Initiative, which brought ten First Nations producers to
New Zealand and Australia to network with film industry representatives
and other indigenous producers. Torrie runs a full-service broadcast
equipment and post-production facility in Winnipeg. He was raised
in Kenora, Ontario, near the Lake of the Woods.
"Television is the new oral tradition, the new vehicle with
which we can tell our stories. There's a lot of pride that people
have in being able to have their stories, their communities being
shared with other peoples, and being able to say, look, that's
us. That helps in this whole process of healing the effects of
500 years of colonization and assimilation."
