Connecting. Thriving. Rising. First Nations, Inuit and Métis from coast to coast to coast are building brighter futures for the next generation. We invited participants to tell us what drives them, what makes them proud and what advice they would offer to youth today. Together we can learn from their experiences and knowledge, and change the world together.
