From one indigenous person to everyone out there, I’m happy I’m here with you all in this great country. The history may have terrible periods for my people but over the past few decades things are getting better. It is not perfect but to me it is moving in the right direction.

It’s not just a day to celebrate identity … it’s a celebration of how we are all becoming more inclusive of one another.

It’s northern Ojibway-Cree and it means “thanks very much to you all”

    miyo kîsikâw!

    As far as I know that means good day in nehiyawewin (plains cree). Still working on learning my own language. It’s kinda slow going, but that’s life.
