October is Mi’kmaq History Month
Treaty Day, (October 1st) marks the beginning of Mi’kmaq History Month in Nova Scotia as proclaimed in 1993 by then Premier John Savage and Mi’kmaq Grand Chief Ben Sylliboy.
This year’s Mi’kmaq History Month poster highlights four major themes: ceremony and consensus, peace and friendship, denial and damage, and renewal and reconciliation.
We are all treaty people. To learn more about Mi’kmaq History Month click here.
