Louis Riel Day is a time to honour the history, strength, and resilience of the Métis people and to reflect on the legacy of Louis Riel, who fought to protect Métis rights, language, and culture.
“My people will sleep for one hundred years, but when they awake, it will be the artists who give them their spirit back.”
Métis culture continues to shine through vibrant art forms that carry spirit and story forward. From intricate beadwork to the flowing colours of the sash, to the lively sound of fiddling, Métis artists continue to keep culture alive in powerful and beautiful ways.
Today at Destiny Recovery and Wellness Centre, we honour this living culture and the strength of the relatives in our care as they reconnect with identity, community, and healing.
Wishing everyone a meaningful Louis Riel Day. ❤️
