I received my new addition to all my books 🥰. Fresh off the press, and just in time for Indigenous Awareness. Much of my public journey began with this Commission. My silence turned into action, I can't look back now. Guess my weekend is planned out 👍

My community is located by the Oldman River. We have not drank our tap water since I was 9yo. When I travel home, I stock up on bottled water for the trip.

The Chief Crowchild awards are at City Hall today. The Calgary Aboriginal Urban Affairs Committee was one I also served with. I always come back to them every year for this fantastic, inspiring day. See every one there!

It's an early morning today here in Mohkinsis. Be down at The Confluence today for a couple of events they'll be hosting. Join me at 1pm in The Confluence theater for a very special presentation, followed by a QnA.

My battle began when I returned to civilian life. I will never allow another politician or leader to tell me I don't belong on this soil because I am Indigenous and wear earned medals.

Colonial politics. It is NOT our way, it'll never benefit anyone anymore. It seeks to tokenize, and when we don't bend over to that, we are the bad Indian. Systemic change is what we need, not another colonial party. Blue, orange, red, green......they are all the same thing ☝️

This morning, at 10 AM, we gathered together at the western tip of the island to share a blessing with elders in our community. Thank you to those that joined us in opening this year's festival in prayer and reflection.

I have my own struggles in the world of PTSD, childhood trauma from abuse, colonial systems abuse, and the ramifications of the health crisis I just went through. It is so important to surround yourself with those who respect, value, and nurture that journey.

Very grateful to be attending my Remembrance Day ceremony this year. After a 3 year miss due to my medical issue, I give my fellow comrades advice today! Turn off your notifications, political well wishers don't mean shit! It's about you today 🥰

I have a whole home library of "woke" knowledge. However, unlike these political idiots out there, it's called "Human Rights knowledge." Today, my reading is particularly interesting.

Strong Eagle Man 🙄🤪😂. These systems are such a failure to true Indigenous people, they've had to create their own tokens to agree with their crap.

I am truly grateful I do not belong to a colonial system or an Indigenous organization practicing in lateral violence in 2025.I am very grateful to my doctor, dietician, physio/message lady, the Veteran's Affairs rehab program, my therapist and cultural healers. Happy 2025!

I'm am not proud of this bunch for what they represent, a colonial implimentation into our communities through the Indian Act. But for once, the message is unity.
