The Story of the Métis in Canada

Our Métis Elders, Indigenous Support workers, students, teachers, administrators, Spruce City Wildlife Association, and parents of School District 57 collaborated to produce a film illustrating the timeline (story) of the Métis in Canada, filmed right here in Prince George, BC. Embedded in the process were key learning outcomes in Social Studies, Applied Design, Skills and Technology, and Arts Education, grades 4-9. Featuring Leona Neilson, Author of "Niwechihaw-I Help" and "Nipehon- I Wait" - Cree/English books describing the relationship of a grandmother with her grandchildren.
All music is performed by members of the School District 57 family.

We are committed to learning together and to creating a reality in which all lives are honoured and celebrated.
