I dedicated my latest column to talking about Pow Wow and how important and meaningful these events are for our communities. #indigenous #firstnations #onpoli #canPoli #powwow #nishnawbe #mushkegowuk https://www.wawataynews.ca/blogs-columns/pow-wow-sacred-gathering

Pow Wow Is A Sacred Gathering

This past month, I was happy to attend two Pow Wows I hadn't been to in years. I attended the Mattagami First Nation Pow Wow and the Matachewan First Nation Pow Wow. These are two special communities I have had the good fortune to be involved in for over 30 years. I stopped attending public events eight years ago when my partner Mike was diagnosed with a debilitating disease. We could not afford for him to get sick with a common cold which meant that I also could not catch anything for fear
