The webinar concluded with Anishinaabe Elder Nii Gaani Aki Inini (Dr. Dave Courchene) sharing a dream he received about the importance of supporting young people, as they bring gifts of strength, courage, and pride in who they are, in spite of the challenges that they have. Setting the Foundation for Good Relations in Our Homeland was a webinar held on January 11th, 2021. A national group of nearly 500 health leaders from across Canada met virtually to hear the perspective of Indigenous Knowledge Keepers, led by members of the National Turtle Lodge Council of Knowledge Keepers, on the issue of racism in health care.

Elder Morris Little Wolf shares about the importance of our children and young people passing Tobacco to Elders to help them learn about their culture and Sacred teachings of their ancestors. Elder Little Wolf teaches that our Elders are the root of our healing and our young people need more opportunities to learn from the Elders to help them heal from addictions by finding their spiritual identity and gifts. The Turtle Lodge International Centre for Indigenous Education and Wellness has partnered with the Sagkeeng Mino Pimatiziwin Family Treatment Centre to share teachings and provide guidance on how to heal from addictions. Join us over the next few weeks, as we share messages from members of the National Turtle Lodge Council of Elders and Knowledge Keepers that discuss the root causes of addictions and how we can heal to live a more balanced and healthy life.
