Elder Harvey

Taanishi. I’m Harvey. It’s nice to have you with me today. The last few years have been hard, but we’ve made it through hard times before. It’s good to ask questions, like the ones we’ve had about decisions made by the government regarding our health. 

I’m from St. Laurent, Manitoba, a Métis community on the shores of Lake Manitoba and the place I’ve always called home. Let’s take a walk together.
