The 2015 50 Faces of Indian Country - ICTMN.com

Diversity, wisdom and energy of contemporary Natives
"The 50 Faces of Indian Country 2015 pays tribute to the diversity, wisdom and energy of contemporary Natives. Pulling it all together was no easy task. The concept was simple and powerful enough, but the devil is in the details. We looked to create a mix that included equal part leaders, actors, activists, musicians, business people, men, women, elders and youth."

Peace and Friendship Treaty Days - Oct 28-30

As long as the sun shines, the grass grows, and the river flows.
"The Mi'kmaq-Wolastoqey Centre is proud to host the University of New Brunswick's first Peace and Friendship Treaty Days, from October 28 to 30, 2015. We will celebrate the peace and friendship treaties signed by the British Crown and the Wabanaki peoples of the Maritimes between 1725 and 1799 and how the peace and friendship treaties continue to define the relationship between the Crown and Indigenous peoples today. We hope that Peace and Friendship Treaty Days will encourage all of us to build towards reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Canadians."
