- Canadians are finally starting to understand and learn about the history and relationship with our First Nations peoples. The Indian Act & residential schools send echos into the communities that span generations. There is a growing pride within first nations culture after decades of shame. Tsawasiya Spukwus is a community leader, education and performer from the Squamish Nation on BC's west coast.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
Thank you, Spukwus for standing up and talking your story all the way to Quebec where this actuality of discussion started. The future generations are listening, watching and collaborating... Beautiful healthy environment and social culture. Enjoy what our olympic event continue to advocate and protect. Le Chief
