Welcome! I love to write, and I love sharing what I write with my readers. I vary my style as much as I can-posting events, creative non-fiction, prose and poetry and the occasional video. Enjoy!

Raise Funds for a documentary called "The Sixties Scoop: A Hidden Generation" by Colleen Cardinal (Hele)


Colleen Cardinal (Hele) and her son Sage Cree  are making a documentary called The Sixties Scoop: A Hidden Generation with the help of Skylarc Pictures and featuring other Indigenous adoptees Elaine Kicknosway, Duane Morriseau-Beck, Neal Shannacappo and Dr. Raven Sinclair along with interview from many other adoptees they meet along their journey.

They are asking you to share this with your networks, friends and family to raise awareness but also to make their journey possible.

Here is synopsis of the film:
"Colleen Cardinal and her son Sage Cree are raising funds to travel with us from Ottawa to Edmonton, with stops along the way in Sault Ste. Marie, Winnipeg, Regina and Saskatoon. Each location is critical to telling their family’s story, and also the story of an estimated 20,000 other Indigenous individuals who were forcibly removed from their families as children and adopted into non-Indigenous families from the late 1950’s to early 1980’s. Because the majority of forced adoptions occurred in the 1960’s, this period is now known as the Sixties Scoop."
