Sask. journalist wins Pulitzer Prize for podcast about her father's residential school experience

A Saskatchewan First Nations woman's story about her father's residential school experience has won the world's top journalism award.

Stolen: Surviving St. Michael's, a podcast by journalist Connie Walker and the team at Spotify's Gimlet Media, won the 2023 Pulitzer Prize for best audio journalism.

"I feel like I'm still in shock. It's disbelief. It means so much. It's an incredible honour," Walker said Monday.

"I think of all of the people bravely shared these stories with us. People should know these stories. More people will hear them now."
