Rocks, animals,

how to exist, how to be in harmony;
People…not so much.

This is a beautiful concept that I have been thinking about for a long time. I have included these sentiments in my land acknowledgemt and much of my writing. I work at the new Indigenous Peoples Experience at Fort Edmonton Park, and I love sharing the beauty and wisdom of the natural world with our visitors.
So I thank you Mr. Solomon for all of your knowledge and wisdom and teachings here. I have not met you, but I appreciate you and the Cree Literacy Network because you are sharing so much here!
kinanâskomitinâwâw mistahi, Mr. Solomon and Miss Arden.
Sincerely,
Naomi McIlwraith
