The Struggle for Joseph Boyden
The Struggle for Joseph Boyden
I didn’t want to write this.
There are enough Joseph Boyden stories and opinions out there already.
But here goes…
We grew up in public housing during our early years. My parents were young students.
My mother is a warrior woman. She fights. She works. I remember her red hair blazing in the sun as we picked the harvest of a small garden. She was the one who encouraged my father to dig deeper to…

Our Hearts Burn Brighter Still…

Like most of you I watched in safety as the good people of Fort McMurray lost theirs.
Dash cam footage showed trees spontaneously combust, animals fleeing the forest, cars moving to the other side of the road to escape the heat of hellfire unleashed on this remote Alberta city. The striking images of a woman leading her horses to safety, of dark smoke shot through with glowing…

May the 5th Be With You!
I adore the movie Spirited Away and always thought NoFace would make a hilarious and terrifying Sith Lord. It seemed an easy crossover with the Star Wars bad guy aesthetic.
But we all know NoFace is really good at heart, don’t we? (-_-)

I believe survivors.
Here in Canada a sexual assault trial just wrapped up that has captured national interest. These alleged sexual assaults were of a surprisingly violent nature, (again – allegedly) perpetrated by a national entertainment icon.
The women who were at the receiving end of the alleged assaults came forward only after years of silence. In court, their testimonies were torn to…

This is important.
The Nomination Meeting for Edm-Manning is tentatively scheduled for July 23. IF you want to help choose me as the NDP Candidate, you MUST have an NDP membership by June 23 (30 days in advance of the meeting).
If I don’t get the nomination, someone else will be running in the Federal Election for the NDP in October for Edmonton-Manning.
So please…

21 Things About The Indian Act That Will Blow Your Mind
21 Things About The Indian Act That Will Blow Your Mind
  “The great aim of our legislation has been to do away with the tribal system and assimilate the Indian people in all respects with the other inhabitants of the Dominion as speedily as they are fit to change.” – John A Macdonald, 1887
Many laws affecting Aboriginal Peoples were combined in 1876 to become the Indian Act. The Act gave Canada a coordinated approach to Indian policy rather than…

We Are More Than We Have Shown...
We Are More Than We Have Shown…
Creation is an act of choice.
Choice is an act of will.
Will is an act of reason.
Reason is an act of thought.
Thought is an act of awareness.
Awareness is an act of spirit.
Spirit is an act of Creation.

I think about creativity ALL THE TIME.
I think about how it is almost non-existent in many power structures, especially government. When the government wants you to do something, more often…

We Are Not Your Property
 I made this thinking about Indigenous women and the burden they bear in being seen less as women and more as objects.
I realized that it spoke to so many things, even beyond the indigenous experience.
I realized that it spoke to every one of us as we try to navigate our way between being commodities or customers in this commerce machine where seemingly everything has a price, and the deep and…

I am really excited to share this cool Kickstarter campaign with you! My friend Rick Harp and the great Wabisheg Rice are trying to raise enough money to record an audiobook.
A lot of people ask me how they can help create a better society where Indigenous people belong. Well, it’s small steps like this that do it!

Sacred Teachings
feel free to share…
How well do you know your own world?
Do you walk? Do you sense? Do you watch the small life? Do your feet ever touch the ground, skin to soil?
We are the children of this earth and we forget that basic truth due to lives dictated by concrete and steel, glass and screens.
Our lives, our knowledge of our hearts, the lessons of the hoop, are forgotten in the grid, the…
