Last Friday, we had the opportunity to attend the commemoration of the 150th anniversary of the signing of Treaty 6.

It was particularly impactful to view the original Treaty 6 parchment, which Chief Ed Ananas arranged to bring back to Saskatchewan - marking its very first departure from the Historical Archives.

We continue to be grateful for the opportunities we have to learn and deepen our understandings of our shared histories, responsibilities and living relationships that shape the communities we live in and work alongside.

The last three days at 250th Ile a la Crosse celebration 2026 have been filled with so many stories, meaningful conversations, quite a few belly laughs, incredible food, familiar faces, new friends, lake water in our hair and sand between our toes.

Thank you, Sakitawak, Île-à-la-Crosse, Treaty 10, for sharing your 250th celebration with us!

We would like to send a special thank you to Edna Daigneault, Dorothy, and the Sakitawak Elders Group for hosting our display and taking such good care of us.

We might be headed south but we are already planning our next trip back to the north!

M’weestus!

🧵Last week, the Sakitawak Elders Group Inc. invited women from the community to the Elder's Lodge to tell their story through a quilt block that will go into a community quilt and displayed at the Île-à-la-Crosse 250th.

The lodge was a busy place and much conversation around shared stories and history was had as pictures were passed around, memories retold, names recalled, and lived experiences were interwoven.

Throughout the week, the project shifted from being a quilt with blocks of singular histories, to also making a second community ✨ Île-à-la-Crosse 250 Story Quilt. ✨

We can hardly wait to see the finished piece and hear the ongoing conversations it will inevitably create for years to come.

Thank you to the Sakitawak Elders Group for inviting us to be a part of this project and for all the beautiful quilting supplies!
