I would urge Canadians to consider some kind of observation. Be mournful on Remembrance Day, wave the flag on Canada Day, and reflect on TR day. There are people who want to politicize all three of those, but I've never had trouble ignoring them. nationalpost.com/news/canada…

Thanks Chief @lwhitecalf for the invitation to Treaty Day at @SweetgrassFN. Have had the opportunity to work on a few Highways items with Chief Lorie.
Great days ahead of us here in SK…looking forward to continue working with our First Nations and Métis neighbours and friends. – at Sweet Grass 113, Saskatchewan

🗣️ANNO: Joanna Bernard selected as interim National Chief by @AFN_Updates. She'll need to work with government on its legislative agenda for #FirstNations police services, co-developing Indigenous health legislation, and safe drinking water and wastewater infrastructure. #cdnpoli

As someone who works closely with elders,ppl really need to rethink how to include them meaningfully. I once drove 40 minutes to pick up an elder, another 40 to take him to the event where they asked him to pray and welcome people- then said “thx you can go now!” He was so tired.

If you think residential schools were a great place for children, you need to look at the Indigenous stats for:
- Incarcerations
- Addictions
- Education
- Child & Family
- Homelessness
If residential schools were a place for learning, we'd have high rates of educated, successful Indigenous people in Canada. Sadly this isn't what we see today. It's not hard to go back to that common denominator that got us here.

It may surprise some, but there is no question @JustinTrudeau has made investing in Indigenous priorities one of the single largest things the Govt of Canada has done since 2015.
Not to say there is not more to do — or that we have come to close to resolve harm & need.

From our analysis, #Budget23 reflects a return to pre-pandemic #Indigenous spending.
Highlights:
• $4B over 7 years to build Indigenous housing
• $125M over 5 years for advancing MMIWG2S+ Calls to Justice
• $2B over 10 years for culturally responsive health care

Hey @TheICMP Indigenous Peoples are not "stakeholders". They are self-determining, self-governing Nations with constitutionally protected Treaty and Aboriginal rights. #faultyprocess #faultyproject

I've already been getting a lot of emails, mostly from men, passing judgement on whether things in the legislature were as bad a @melaniejmark says they were. Here's the thing. If you're not a woman, you're not Indigenous, you have no idea what she's experienced, you can't judge

Excited to be taking on a new role in the Prime Minister’s Office as Indigenous Affairs Advisor! I’ve learned so much over the last year and look forward to continuing to build trust, strengthen Indigenous relations and support communities in advancing their priorities 🤝✨

I’ve always looked up to @jacindaardern and her style of leadership throughout her 5.5 years as PM. As the world’s youngest female leader when she first took office, she has shown young women across the world a that leadership doesn’t need to look or act a certain way.

The truth will continue to come out. Pay attention Canada! I stand with Survivors, their families and #StarBlanketCreeNation as this devastating truth is revealed. 🧡

I’m sorry but explain to me how Vancouver Police and experts across the world can spend millions at the Pickton pig farm to identify the women there but the Winnipeg police can’t go to a landfill

Interesting after the HOC today and the Pope this summer… just three years ago @TorontoStar encapsulated the then prevailing media wisdom that journalists shouldn’t use the word “genocide” thestar.com/amp/opinion/edit…

Dumont au sujet de @CJKateri : "femme solide et inspirante", "elle a d’abord été choisie pour ses compétences et non ses origines, son CV est inpressionnant", "retenez son nom. En acquérant de l’expérience politique, elle prendra du galon" #CAQ journaldemontreal.com/2022/1…
