ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Today, I’ll be chatting with Michael Doyle. I first came to know Michael when his daughter Madeleine was selected as the winner of the inaugural Irish Heritage Awards for her artwork depicting Thomas D’arcy McGee and the expectations of Irish emigrants to Canada. Michael was born in Toronto to two Irish parents and this provides us with a unique insight into the identity of a second-generation Irish-Canadian. Michael is very honest about his perspective on his Irish identity and how that has changed throughout the years, from his childhood to the early 1990s and his experiences studying Irish at the University of St. Michael’s College, right up to his retirement plans.
