“Reconciling Ways of Knowing, Dialogue 4: Two-Eyed Seeing & Beyond” originally aired on October 28, 2020. This session featured Mi’kmaq Elder Albert Marshall, Drs. Jesse Popp, Andrea Reid, and Deborah McGregor, moderated by Jacquie Miller, MA. They explored Etuaptmumk, or Two-Eyed Seeing, a guiding principle developed by Elder Marshall.

Etuaptmumk emphasizes integrating two or more perspectives for improved outcomes. Understood as a gift of multiple viewpoints, this framework enhances our shared lives, including our relationship with the Earth. The discussion highlighted how Two-Eyed Seeing necessitates collaborative learning and understanding, drawing parallels with the Two-Row Wampum for guiding cross-cultural collaboration.

On June 21, 2017, the summer solstice and National Aboriginal Day, Turtle Lodge Elders and representatives from the Original Nations lit a sacred fire at Manitou Api. The flame was brought to Winnipeg, where Elder Dave Courchene lit the Centennial Flame at the Manitoba Legislative Building. It will burn for one year, inspiring the province and nation.

This sacred flame launched the 2017 Canada Games torch run in Manitoba and later lit the Games' cauldron.

A video for the Canada Games was created by Patrick Roberge, PRP Inc. Acknowledgements go to the Elders for their vision and to Barry Mathers for his hard work with the Canada Games and Turtle Lodge.
