Pretty purple #beaded earrings that my #Cree & #Metis friend, Sara Santana, made as a gift for me. She makes beautiful #NativeJewelry & other wearables. Based in #VictoriaBC - you can shop online or visit her shop in the Hudson Building on Douglas St at Fisgard.

"To stop a pipeline, a three-week jail sentence was a small price to pay
"With raging wildfires destroying our communities, I don’t regret standing up against the Trans Mountain pipeline"

Of particular interest is the court's reliance on #histodons of various stripes (esp. Rousseau, Inksetter, and Goudreau) to find for a cultural vs a genealogical definition of "Métis". #Indigenous scholars and activists have been arguing along these lines for years, while the courts have generally relied on a race-based definition. @histodons

I love books about witches. Cherie Dimaline's VenCo is one of the best I've read in a long time. A Métis witch, found family, LGBTQ+ rep & hexing the patriarchy? What's not to love?

I'm particularly interested in learning how to approach populations who self-identify as #Indigenous, #lgbtq, #disabled, and/or #homeless. If any worthwhile resources spring to mind, I'd be grateful if you could point me at them.

Business information systems are composed of three kinds of things: entities, processes, and rules.
Processes are the verbs — the actions that operate on and orchestrate the interactions of business entities.

Community-oriented #historian David Rondeau found a #bison shoulder blade that is more than 8,000 years old at a cut bank near the North #Saskatchewan river in #PrinceAlbertSK .
"It's in itself quite surprising. It's about a thousand years older than what was previously thought for habitation in our area," Rondeau, also a consultation co-coordinator for #Crutwell #Metis Local 66, said.

In fact, Liboiron’s #book “Pollution is Colonialism” ( #DukeUniversityPress 2021) spells out the concept in considerable detail.
And #plastic is perhaps the most glaring example.]

While this is precisely the point behind the change, it may make those uncertain about changing power structures uncomfortable.

Today in Labor History March 19, 1885: Louis Riel declared a provisional government in Saskatchewan, marking the start of the North-West Rebellion. At the same time the Métis people rose up against the Canadian government, there was an associated uprising by First Nations Cree and Assiniboine. However, Riel’s movement had a heavily religious tone that alienated most Indigenous tribes, as well as some Métis. Nevertheless, he had the allegiance of 200 armed Métis, a few other Indigenous warriors, and at least one white man. About 91 people died in the fighting that occurred that spring before the rebellion collapsed.
