Media Exhibit: Paddling Together


April 15, 2016


An evening of sharing Paddling Together partnership with Chapleau Cree First Nations Reserve.

Paddling Together is a partnership between three generations of George Brown College alumni and the reserve community of Fox Lake First Nations [Chapleau Cree]. This joint venture encourages an unique opportunity that captures both urban and a reserve First Peoples’ world view within an academic learning setting.; activities such as: cultural ceremonies; story telling; political information; and direct engagement with the community holistically through the teachings of the medicine wheel.

This partnership encourages participation in both the reconciliation and the healing process for both First Peoples’ and non-First Peoples’. Through this project the truth of Canada’s [Kanata’s] history is identified to reveal the invisible and misunderstood First Peoples’ experiences. This is a three-year project that is the pivotal point to collectively continue discussion about long term sustainable relationships that creates partnerships for all peoples, together in the 8th Fire Prophesy in taking care of Mother Earth and each other.

Time: 6 pm-8 pm
