Joel interviews Mafer Douglas, an actor, director, and playwright from Vancouver, BC. Mafer takes Joel through her experience of coming to BC from Mexico as a young adult, and living in the province for over six years.

Along the way, we explore

Mafer’s experience assimilating and immigrating to the country,

the idea of living with a "hyphenated" identity (Mexican-Candian, German-Canadian, etc.),

and how BCers can make the place more welcoming for the rest of the world.
