Jon Hesse: Naturalized Japanese Citizen & Politician

This episode originally aired in September 2023.

In this episode, I sit down with Jon Heese, a former bar owner who naturalized and became a four-time elected political representative in Japan. Born in Saskatchewan and raised in a Mennonite family, Jonโ€™s path took him from rural Canada to the political halls of the Tsukuba Assembly.
