What would the state of reconciliation be if every non-Indigenous person committed to a specific TRC call to action and worked on it in their own daily lives? Not because they caused any of this but because they have benefited - from the land being their home, from the clean water they drink, to the electricity that powers their community.

Join me as your Master of Ceremonies for a very special and important gathering happening in Winnipeg in early June! The Indigenous History and Heritage Gathering is happening and if your work is in or around Indigenous history, then you will want to come along!

Michael is one of your hosts for this 90-minute live educational gathering will immerse you in the rich tapestry of Indigenous culture, music, dance, and history while honouring Residential School Survivors. It is designed to open a dialogue with young people about the truth of Canada’s residential school system.

Do you love the North End? Do you want to see Selkirk Avenue revive and thrive and be a gathering place for renewal and revitalization? Please join me for a walk down Selkirk Avenue as part of the 2024 Jane’s Walk Winnipeg series.

I'm so honoured to be part of this awesome project where artist Lani Zastre interviews and hand sketches in pencil a number of Indigenous folks in the community. I also answered a question of what I would like to see happen in terms of how non Indigenous people can live together with Indigenous peoples, you’ll be surprised how I answered!

Thank you to the National Association of Friendship Centres for having me as one of their keynote speakers for their youth conference this year in Enoch, Alberta! Check out a couple of photos, my presentation and a few links I referenced in my presentation.

We have to stop throwing our hands in the air and saying we don’t know what to do to prevent MMIWG2S. We know what to do. We have 231 Calls For Justice that are waiting to be implemented, with 8 that all Canadians can use to take meaningful action. Let’s get to work.

I've seen immense progress in the past year within many places and people I have strong relationships with. But we need everyone to help if we're gonna make reconciliation and a good life for all a reality. I suggest that we start at the beginning, at call to action #1, do what we can to support parents and bring the children home.
