Yesterday in Peerless Trout First Nation, I met with leaders, elders and members of three First Nations in the beautiful new school to sign our agreement to implement Awaśak Wiyasiwêwin, their children's law, representing a new day for the children of these nations.
Was a wonderful day celebrating this milestone and recognizing that it will be so important for families today and generations to come
“Today there is hope that we can begin to truly heal intergenerational trauma that has impacted our children for too long,” said Chief Okemow of Peerless Trout First Nation,

Peguis’ ‘Honouring our Children, Families and Nation Act’ will take full effect and rightly put them in the driver’s seat. It means Peguis Child and Family Services will have the tools and resources they need to keep children and families together.
Thinking of all those brave Indigenous veterans who fought and sacrificed for the benefit of all Canadians and our allies. #IndigenousVeteransDay
On #IndigenousVeteransDay we remember #FirstNations veterans who bravely served. Though many were awarded medals for bravery and gallantry, the reception awaiting those who were able to return home was not the same as non-Indigenous veterans.
