- Notes
- "The post-schools reconciliation era offers us a unique opportunity to establish personal one-on-one relationships with Indigenous people. .... We don't know much about Indigenous communities. .... We have an opportunity of meeting one another simply as people. Write me a letter. I will write one in return. I will tell your what I did yesterday and you tell me the same. How are we alike ? How do we differ ? What is the weather like where you are ? We had snow today. .... Governments will do what governments do and provide those things they should provide, or not. But a sense of belonging, of having value comes from talking to and being with others. Let me know what you think. Let's start the conversation".
