  4. I dedicated my latest column to the memory of my life partner, my friend, my mentor, my everything - Mike McGrath. He not only meant so much to me, he was a great positive influence on so many people. #indigenous #firstnations #attawapiskat #love #friendship #nishnawbe #mushkegowuk

  5. A short doc produced by Legal Advocates For Nature's Defence to highlight 'Here We Stand', a land protest led by my cousin James Kataquapit and his family ... more specifically by James' son Jeronimo Kataquapit. Proud to see my cousins James and his brother David Kataquapit in this production.

  7. The fact that we have a Premier that made a statement like that is completely unbelievable. It's a racist ignorant comment and it was spoken by someone who should be representing all of Ontario.

  13. Currently watching live coverage of FN leaders speaking in Ottawa in protest of federal gov Bill 5

    "The Chiefs of Ontario Leadership Council passed a resolution strongly opposing both the content of the bill and the undemocratic process being used to rush it through Parliament without meaningful consultation or study."

  18. My latest column is about the annual spring goose hunt, which everyone is taking part in on the James Bay coast right now.

  19. A short video of Attawapiskat celebrating the passing of prominent Elder Ignace Koostachin this past week. This is a long procession of vehicles that brought him back to his home over the winter ice road from Timmins, to Moosonee and then to Attawapiskat. Family and friends from every community on the coast were able to meet the family as they travelled north. The original video is by community member Willie Lazarus on FB. #atttawapiskat #mushkegowuk #nishnawbe #indigenous

  20. I dedicated my latest column to the passing of two great men that I looked up. John Mercier, a French Canadian from Timmins who was a great friend and Ignace Koostachin, a close relative I looked up in my community of Attawapiskat #atttawapiskat #mushkegowuk #nishnawbe #nishnawbeaski #indigenous

  21. “Premier Ford’s promise to ‘unlock’ the Ring of Fire and fast-track development is a direct attack on the Inherent, Treaty, and Aboriginal rights of First Nations who have governed and stewarded these lands since time immemorial,” said Grand Chief Alvin Fiddler, Nishnawbe-Aski Nation (representing 49 FNs in Treaty 9 in far northern Ontario)
