National anthem sung in Cree
Tansi nitotemak:
A great story by CBC's Connie Walker about Akina Shirt, the young woman who sang the national anthem in Cree at a hockey game broadcast by Hockey Night in Canada.
Coincidentally, her home reserve is Saddle Lake, one of a number of communities who jointly own the Blue Quills First Nations College. Blue Quills is where I took Cree. Maybe Akina will one day be a student there...
ay-ay,
Rick

So proud of this achievement by such a young person. In front of those millions. Way to go!
We should lobby to have Canadas national anthem sung in Cree at the First NHL game next year!
