I co-wrote this story w/ Inuk teacher Sarah Angiyou re the importance of Elisapie’s music for promoting #Inuktitut, the challenges facing the language, & the need to respect Indigenous #language education rights.

Elisapie’s Juno-nominated album: Promoting Inuktitut through music
Beyond how beautifully Elisapie interprets classic rock songs, with creative choices like using throat singing to cover Metallica, her music also brings the Inuktitut language to a wider audience.

Our collective efforts are having an effect! Suppliers are turning away from US. If the label says made in the US, put it back on the shelf! Buy Canadian, Mexican, EU, etc. #elbowsup

Better than taking away Musk’s citizenship, we should start requiring Canadian citizens living in the US to pay Canadian income taxes, like the US does of citizens living abroad. Musk, Gretzky, etc. can pay up or renounce. #canpoli #canada #tarrifs #trumptarrifs #tradewar #buycanadian

@liberalca.bsky.social Canadians want to buy local products, but labelling is a mess. Can’t the govt make stores improve labelling and control the use of maple leaves 🍁 on packaging? Why can’t we filter for Canadian products on grocery store websites? 🇨🇦 #BuyCanadian #TrumpTarrifs #cdnpoli #Canada
