Rejected as the Liberal nominee for the riding of Sault Ste. Marie, Naomi Sayers is now running as an independent candidate in the provincial election.
A prominent Indigenous lawyer, Sayers has never hid the fact that she worked as an escort and exotic dancer before pursuing a career in the courtroom. Called to the bar in both Alberta and Ontario, she is now a respected litigator and human rights advocate who tries to use her "personal story to create and influence change."
On the latest episode of Inside the Village, a news podcast produced by Village Media, Sayers talks about her campaign for Queen's Park—and how the Liberal Party "wasted" her time during the nomination debacle.
