Help us spread the word! CAN WE BRING THIS EVENT TO YOUR CITY? LET US KNOW we would like to come Attendees will have the choice to watch, or participate. We understand there will be many spiritual and non-spiritual beliefs represented this night. ​Our heart is that through reconciliation and education we can raise awareness and promote an understanding of the difficult and complex history of non-Indigenous/Indigenous relations in Canada, helping us to understand why we find ourselves in this present situation. As we do, attitudes and prejudices change and we open doors to a broader discussion and understanding of the options that are available. We believe that mutual cooperation and respect will make the difference.
