Wonderful day with UCCM Police on Manitoulin Island, cooked up pickerel for my good friends.

Sharing your Spark can heal your Soul.

Don’t let anyone pour water on your Spark.

Thanks to Mike Monahan of Jet FM morning show, to let Tory Fisher and myself celebrate Indigenous Peoples day on air.

Best medicine is putting up a tipi with my buddies from Our Lady of Sorrows School, Nipissing-Parry Sound Catholic District School Board, what a great group of leaders.@npsc_schools

When you think no one is watching, that’s when someone’s watching. My granddaughter Grace Couchie-rainville came to assist with Cultural Mindfulness, when she got up to speak, other little girls in ribbon dresses got behind her.

In the community of Wahnapitae First Nation with granddaughter Gracie teaching Cultural Mindfulness. Smudging the medicines to start in a good way.

Dropped tobacco plants off to Jennifer Funnel at North Bay Regional Health Centre, Jennifer has been doing a phenomenal at Hostipal looking after the needs of Indigenous people. @NBRHC

Over the past three years Sandy’s Closet located in Sturgeon Falls, has donated over three hundred boxes of clothing to communities across the North. The OPP Provincial Liaison Team headed by Gilles Lachance picks up the boxes to distribute to communities. Sharing your Spark.

My mom and dad, struggled with their own trauma and the community with theirs.

As the sun rises each day it reminds us that there is something that belongs to all of us.

My granddaughter Faith asked if she could go along with POP. She wanted to smudge the room before the students arrived. Our children are our medicine, sometimes you need to bring your own medicine.

We can’t rely on the victims to come up with the answers but how are you going to acknowledge Indigenous people Using what you learned today; and putting into practice; going forward in your work and daily lives.

Awesome day in Wahnapitae First Nation with Confederation Secondary School. Cultural Mindfulness.
