Good morning, Holy Father. Thank you for another day. after one day of failing you avec dealing wiht angry people. Defending myself, or not turning the other cheek, either way, it was not your son's way, One angry old man who hated the world, as I tried to help him, another, just miserable, I stay away, look out the bus window. a.

ICE repeating history like the days of the 1930s Secret police leading to......I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders at times. What can I do as an artist to save others father when I can't serve myself. But humility first of all, I think we need to start with. humble ourselves before the mighty lord of hosts, Protect the children of the world from evil, the innocent ones help, help the ones who are on the street living in tents with no heat? And all those who are lost in the darkness of this world. Save us through Jesus Christ, I'll ask all this amen.

I want to as well share a story of one of my canoe trips June 1972. of which I shared to a SJSA alumni and his article
"... [T]his reminded me of my SJSA times as we "plied" allow the Fraser from Tête Jaune Cache to Prince George, then upstream avec Nechako to the shortest river around, the Nautley River. Through its short Rapids, we continue the length of Fraser Lake, trucked to Francois Lake, then to Oootsa Lake, Tahtsa Reach, and trucked to Kemano, a paddle throw on Kemano River to the Ocean, We finally Prince Rupert 30 some days later, two wooded 26 foot canoes, one with a patch after one of our canoes hit an underwater log jam and seconds later we were all underwater, scrambling for our lives. Luckily, none of us were pulled under what ever we hit, but we all surfaced. We spent a few days in Kemano getting the canoe fixed. memory is a little vague . Then paddled along the salt chuck to Prince Rupert. Have a nice day, thanks for the reflective moment. This picture , I believe is from #190's collection Ronald Alexander, Not sure of where this was taken, maybe the MacKenzie, which my twin brother did in 1972, I believe. I created this remake of stream Courier Du BOis because of an SJSA alumni post about the voyageurs, and to remind others of the good and bad that came from this form of trade, allegorically perhaps 🙂

1992 A Native Vision was the result of a grant from the Canadian Native Arts Foundation to work on my film When Wires Cross which eventually became 7 Fires 4 U Kitchi Manitou, an experimental narrative that came out of the Oka crisis of 1990. it was a difficult film to get done, I was told it was too political at various times, told it would just increase the politics heat at the time. John Kim Bell gave me a bit of money to research so I ended up going to Oka after my work with the Karen Jamieson dance company. They went to Fredericton and I went to Quebec to research all the aspects of the Oka crisis less than two years before the July 11th. standoff so this is the result of that early research, a research video plus sharing a bit about myself in understanding my past and and all that resulted from those early years

I recorded this off Youtube, bypacked images like the days of Stan Brakhage, who Canadian filmmakers late David Rimmer, the living extraordinaire AL Razutis, Both my teachers Another early filmmaker in my 8mm, 16mm days, was American filmmaker Jim McBride, who would take a picture of every Camera Angle , I think of what was shown on TV. So long ago, He is in his early 80s now, but I liked his work, and did the same thing back in 83, or 84 with a Bolex 16mm spring camera. The film is lost in time, some images I found on video, but over exposed film , limited video technology, learning years. Sorry about that folks . Created in the hope of saving others from......May God's love and peace be with you all

WARNING Following not for children. Younger teens with parental guidance. Play contains suggestive words pertaining to imaginary depictions of history in the late 1700s. Fifteen years after that time of absolutism, revolutionary battles and resistance. The playwright shares an imaginary rendition of the imprisonment of inmates in an Asylum in the 1800s based on the assassination of revolutionary leader Jean-Paul Marat by Charlotte Corday.

"Marat/Sade" is a two-act play written by German-Swedish author Peter Weiss, first performed in 1964. Set in the Charenton asylum in 1808, the play portrays an imaginative reenactment of the assassination of revolutionary leader Jean-Paul Marat by Charlotte Corday, occurring exactly fifteen years after the event.
As young instructors back then, we were not sure of why the Director wanted this play, for young indigenous students. But now in hindsight, I often thought, was it because of the residential school repercussions on the indigenous families at times , inter-generational trauma, and all that was part of the tragic results of Canada's Failed Assimilation polices
Good day all, I had the honetech capturing software for some time now, but when I updated to Honetech 7, the green demarcation appeared as I told many early in later captures of footage. Well, in order to get RIO ISLAND up for Warren Arcand, I wanted to resolve that demarcation issue, so off I went to Google land ha ha. But I did find A copy of Honetech 5 on an Archival site online. SO I Was able to download it , install it on my HP and the demarcation is gone. I thank the lord for that :-) So now capturing footage for a potential redo of a show, and other works.
So here we raise our hands up to old technology. As we were able to record this show from 1988, when I was a SFU student. Great talent here. I am working now on the following show Sea Street, which was re-written into a larger cast play for this summer program.
Sea Street was commissioned by the Surrey Teachers Association when they contacted me about doing a show on Native issues. It was 1985, I just did a strong role in The Young Poundmaker by playwright Ernie Carefoot for Hub Theatre in Saskatoon. I read for the part in a lady Director's house in East Van, got the part, they flew me to Saskatoon, where we rehearsed for eight days to be ready for a week run of a new play. It star Gordon Tootoosis, Tantoo Cardinal, myself, Carol Greyeyes, Patriarch Victor ThunderChild, ( who Met Diefenbaker,) and other talented actors. I was unsure of my ability to do such a play, but it did not stop me, A young university student, I wrote and performed it as a one man show , directed by Colin MacPherson.. It was remounted again in 1987 for The Indigenous World Conference as a two person show with actually Tracy McCollister, I believe, who was amazing. Again Colin MacPherson directed this work. And finally in1988, it became a larger cast play which will be up shortly. This stream preceded Sea Street https://youtu.be/FoN5ZIbQ6go
