Office of the Treaty Commissioner executive director, Harry Lafond, sent a dispatch from the second annual Treaty 10 Gathering from English River First Nation’s La Plonge reserve near Beauval.
For the second year in a row, I trekked north to the beautiful landscape of La Plonge in late July and early August. Treaty 10 Gathering brought out the friends I made last years and years past. Elder AJ Felix and Elder Isadore Campbell kept the sessions moving.
The Lt. Governor attended the first day and listened to every presenter until it was time for him to catch his flight home to Regina. Throughout the day, the Lt. Governor moved around the grounds engaging different people in conversation.
Gatherings like this bring out the thoughts and stories of the people and help to create bonds that are so necessary for future work in Treaty implementation.
