The Erickson Collegiate Grade 8 and Anishinaabemowin Language classes welcomed Elder Peter Atkinson to our school to talk about the Anishinaabe creation story, clan system, and treaties. Elder Atkinson is from Roseau River First Nation and is a speaker through the Treaty Relations Commission of Manitoba. He is widely recognized for his knowledge about treaties, as well as Anishinaabe culture, spirituality, and language. It was a great Monday afternoon spent with Elder Peter Atkinson.
