Something to 'crow' about

Students attending Red Crow College in Cardson, Alta., are going to have some pretty fancy living quarters to hang their hats and do their homework.

Renovations have recently been completed on the old St. Paul's residential school. The building, which has been abandoned for over 10 years, now resembles an up-scale apartment complex. The building has also had a name change.

Blessed Creator:

I pray for good health this day and perhaps a peaceful sleep.

I'm in La Ronge, Sask. now. God's beautiful creations - what colors! I can feel a beautiful fall coming in Saskatchewan.

A lot of thoughts entered my heart while picking sage by Whitecap.

Man determined to keep medicines from becoming extinct

Page 34

The sun is barely up, but Derick Pitawanakwat has been awake for hours. Every second Friday he rises at 4 a.m. and builds a huge fire near his home on the Wikwemikong reserve in northeastern Ontario.

Two huge cast-iron cauldrons are suspended over the fire by heavy chains attached to a wooden tripod. Inside the cauldrons, small bits of wood, roots, bark and leaves float in a bubbling, reddish brown liquid. You could call it herbal tea, enough for an army. But Pitawanakwat calls it medicine.
