About the Virtual Session

This has been made possible through collaboration and financial support from the Canadian Partnership against Cancer and Health Canada. The topic for this November Session is about "MEDICINE WHEEL TEACHINGS".

Resource Speaker

Kunshie Annie Beaulieu

is a Kunshie, which means grandmother in Dakota. She was born in Portage La Prairie, Manitoba and resided in Dakota Tipi First Nation with her grandmother. At the age of seven, she was taken to Indian Residential School. In 1970, she married a man from Sandy Bay First Nation and moved to that area. Throughout her long career, Annie has worked in the education, health care and child welfare systems. Annie has been a caring member of the community and over the years, she has opened her home to foster children, offered support to many community members, and provided palliative care for her husband.

During the education session, Annie will share a little of her life story through the lens of the medicine wheel which she described as "a way of life; a teaching, a healing, a mirror and a window". 

As part of this Lunch & Learn, Louisa Beaulieu, Annie's youngest daughter, will share an honour song.
