Misipawistik Pimastisimeskanaw
Misipawistik Cree Nation’s youth program Misipawistik Pimastisimeskanaw builds on 30 years of culture camps and on-the-land programming in our territory on the shores of Lake Winnipeg. Our program connects youth to traditional practices, teaches the Cree language and builds intergenerational connections. MCN would like to thank and acknowledge the many supporters and funders of this program.
About the NMFCCC Logo and Artist:
The logo was designed by Ervin Bighetty. Ervin is young Indigenous man, resident of Leaf Rapids, northern advisor to the Collaborative, and of course many more things. The hands show hard work, care, collaboration and diversity as key elements of the collaborative. The plant represents knowledge. Sharing and growing knowledge is a key component of this collaborative effort. The colour scheme was chosen to show the changing temperature from south to north, as per The Weather Network’s illustration of temperature through use of colour.
