1. Yes, she's a good ol' Saskatchewan girl!

She's from Craven, which isn't too far from where I grew up. And she's the only person from my home province who's won an Oscar.

2. Hello

She is Cree, right?

3. still so poignant

I clicked on the other links at the end and found this song that I had never heard in my life!

It blew my mind--a bit long, but hang on, it grows as it goes...take a peek

6. I suspect so, or Cree Métis, anyway

Saskatchewan is well within the Cree nation, and Crees do predominate.

Jim Sinclair was a neighbour and friend of our family when I was growing up. I'm not sure if you're familiar with him in particular, but he's someone we should all look up to. http://www.metisnation.ca/order/order_jsinclair.html

Vietnam War protests and songs! She still sounds wonderful!! I was so happy to hear her again in protest against this war. She still looks so young and beautiful. Go Buffy!!!
