To both the person who drew this and @jkenney who seems oblivious to how inappropriate this is given violence against women and the subjugation of women - take a First Nations studies and women's studies course. You both need it - desperately.
Loving thoughts and prayers to the Boushie family and community. To the rest of us, a plea to take up the challenge of working in whatever way you can to build connection, community and shared commitment to justice for everyone and brighter futures for all

We remember that dark day when Stanley walked away from the court after shooting #coltenboushie. A young promising #Indigenous man with a promising life before him. This country will never be the same again and we should always remember and work at it so it never happens again.

At PDAC technical session...the paradoxical remark of the day...the 3 key climate change technologies (wind, solar, & batteries) will need more minerals to meet the demand for the 1.5 billion electronic devises produced per year that is produced...more electric cars, more copper.

The measure of a good Indigenous leader? Not what he/she says but what they do & how well they do it.

Sad to see BC Aboriginal groups fighting to get hold of child welfare funding to stage meetings in swanky hotels & other costly venues.
