This is my Canada as much as yours.
This land holds the blood of all of my ancestors as much as it does yours.
I understand there is a lot of hurt presently.
I understand the history of Canada was not always great.
A lot of people are still grieving, angry and scared.
And I honor the paths of all sides of this story.
Whether it be the history of my METIS heritage (maternal grandmother side) where our fur trading families lost all our land and belongings and got forced out to make way for the other settlers.
Whether it be the history of my FRENCH heritage (New France-both grandfathers) where the English came and beat our ass and took out land and built upon it – more blood was shed.
Whether it be the history of my ENGLISH heritage (both grandmothers) the ones that are being blamed and accused. The ones that did the attacking so long ago (and some not so long ago)
This land has seen the good and bad of all of my people. We’ve fought wars against each other.
We are still fighting. It’s got to stop.
What we all are looking for now is PEACE & HARMONY.
This only comes through forgiveness and letting go.
Healing ourselves from what has happened in the past.
As I mentioned in my last post.
I am a survivor or generational trauma.
I’ve been down all the dark roads.
I watch my very own family battle with mental illness.
So many of them still carry the hurt, the wounds.
This is very real.
And healing needs to take place.
Did the terrible, unbelievable, unspeakable things happen?
Yes.
But now it’s time to heal our broken hearts. 
It’s time to find peace.
Not just with the founding cultures, but with everyone
This is all of our Canada.
We need to heal.
This is the very reason I started Soul to Soul Healing.
This is what I’ve been healing since starting my own healing journey.
My brokenness from each of these cultures.
But now I’m whole and that’s exactly what my purpose is -to help others do the same.
