(We are at a #CriticalPoint in time. #Canadian #courts are finally starting to #recognize #IndigenousLaws & #Indigenous peoples are remembering the #SpiritualLaws we were once forced to forget.
It can be #overwhelming — even for Indigenous #legal #professionals — to understand the weight that our spiritual laws & #responsibilities carry unless we are trained by #MedicinePeople & #connected to our #ancestral way of thinking.)
