We had the special honour of performing for a Metis Elder Reta Gordon. The gathering was filled with warmth, laughter, and community. Friends and family joined in, including Elders Marie-Louise Perron and Parm Burgie, who helped make the afternoon even more meaningful.

On National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, one of Youth4Youth Canada's founding members was honoured to bring an important conversation to CBC Ottawa Morning. Taliah Lyons had the privilege of interviewing one of her mentors, Auntie Alexia, about what it truly means to be an Indigenous Auntie today.
We spent a beautiful afternoon at Rideau Pines Farms with Indigenous youth from our community. Thanks to a grant from ONWA, we were able to host this land-based activity and spend time together in nature—picking berries and fresh vegetables straight from the fields.
We were honoured to bring our Kîšâc dancers to Gloucester’s 175th anniversary celebration at the beautiful Billings Estate National Historic Site. Hosted by the Gloucester Historical Society, the afternoon was all about community, history, and celebration.
