Returning to Canada one year ago (July 1, 2016) I reflect on my notes from a conversation and presentation I attended while in Winnipeg, MB.  It's hard to imagine to return to the person or state I was before.  I've lived away from Canada for so long and  have been watching the resurgence of First Nations people from afar.  At times the process seems slow but never had I felt more reverence for the people who are rising above and returning to the heart of this land.
