Generally, I prefer to post after I have accomplished one of the 150 everyday acts for reconciliation. This will be the exception, as I'll be asking you to join me in the TRC Reading Challenge and the TRC Reading Club at the Nistawoyou Association Friendship Centre starting on Thursday, September 21, 2017 from 6:30pm to 7:30pm. I'm hoping that we can have the report completed by the end of the year so will likely be meeting every two to three weeks but would like to discuss what a reasonable timeline is with the participants.
Want to participate? Here are the steps:
For the first meeting, please read in advance the first three sections of the report and reflect on what aspects of Canadian society today relates to the era of residential schools. Consider current affairs, specifically the race tensions in the USA.

About me
I grew up in Athabasca, AB and have spent the majority of my life in Northern Alberta or Montreal, PQ. My husband has been in Fort McMurray since the 70s and continues to love this town and all that it has to offer. We are avid outdoor enthusiasts, spending our summer weekends quadding and camping. As Opimian members we thoroughly enjoy wine pairings and tastings and are working on our wine collection. Ralph is a carpenter by trade and has framed more houses in Fort McMurray than I could count and knows the city inside and out. I work all throughout the region from the NWT to Janvier for the tribal council. My passion is doodling and photography which is featured throughout the website (various mediums), writing, Indigenous studies, and learning in general. Categories |
