As a wolastoqiyik, I have made it my life’s work in helping the environment and helping our people. One of the most effective ways of securing a sustainable environment for future generations to thrive in, is by bringing back our language and our connection to mother earth. It is the reconnection with nature through language and ceremony that will foster future leaders who are immersed in our knowledge of relation and balance, which are key components to our existences.
