Every day, this week, we will be sharing information and the voice of Indigenous peoples, so that we may better be able to understand the rich culture, wisdom and the unique perspective they offer us.  So let us begin with the Treaty Week Prayer.

On November 9, SJC Welcomes guest presenter, Jared Big Canoe (Jared BigCanoe – Mishkiki  ).  He will be presenting to all three divisions with messages of kindness and through dance and storytelling, he will be sharing the story  about the 7 grandfather teachings which are  key examples of how we live a good life.
