http://weiwaikai.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Wei Wai Kai Woman. Monday, March 22, 2010. State of emergency declared in 10 First Nations in Manitoba. With winter wanning across the country, Manitoba's northren Indigenous population is calling for help. The government is trying to coordinate air drops of supplies to these ten reserves, but will it be enough? With global warming becoming more evident each year, how do we work to prevent this from happening next year? Visit cbc.ca/aboriginal for more information about this situtation. Posted by Julie R.

Wei Wai Kai Woman: Parental Ponderings
http://weiwaikai.blogspot.com/2010/08/parental-ponderings.html
Wei Wai Kai Woman. Sunday, August 15, 2010. So a lot of my time lately has been spent on trying to raise my daughter, thinking about raising my daughter, worrying about raising my daughter. I am lucky enough to have a beautiful, intelligent, amazing young woman whom I love so much, and am daily thankful for the opportunity to help raise her. Tonight though, I was wondering, when do we teach them to jump? I want my daughter to not be afraid of the world, I want her to embrace it, and see it all, taste life.

Wei Wai Kai Woman: June 2008
http://weiwaikai.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Wei Wai Kai Woman. Thursday, June 12, 2008. Canadian Prime Minister Apologizes to Indians. Prime Minister Harper offers full apology on behalf of Canadians for the Indian Residential Schools system. The treatment of children in Indian Residential Schools is a sad chapter in our history. For more than a century, Indian Residential Schools separated over 150,000 Aboriginal children from their families and communities. One hundred and thirty-two federally-supported schools were located in every province and...

Wei Wai Kai Woman: November 2011
http://weiwaikai.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Wei Wai Kai Woman. Saturday, November 26, 2011. This Is My Voice. By Shane Koyczan and the Short Story Long. This is my voice, there are many like it, but this one is mine. And it’s a fine line when you’re trying to define the finer points of politics. Politics being a latin word. 8220;poli” meaning many. 8220;tics” meaning blood sucking butt lumps. You see too many live in countries where it’s bullets instead of ballots. Where gavels fall like mallets when held in the hands of those whose judgments.

Wei Wai Kai Woman: Respect is a dying word, but it will not die with me
http://weiwaikai.blogspot.com/2012/08/respect-is-dying-word-but-it-will-not.html
Wei Wai Kai Woman. Monday, August 13, 2012. Respect is a dying word, but it will not die with me. What happened to caring for our families first? When did our red road get covered in blacktop? Why are we raising children to be spoiled kids into their 30s and 40s? Who are the people that decided this world we have now, is the one we should have? How do we start making changes? Respect, seven little letters that turn our warriors to whiny children and our women to weak willed wimps. Posted by Julie R.

Wei Wai Kai Woman: Half Breeds = Twice the work?
http://weiwaikai.blogspot.com/2010/08/half-breeds-twice-work.html
Wei Wai Kai Woman. Thursday, August 19, 2010. Half Breeds = Twice the work? As a thirty something woman I am finding I now have the confidence to feel comfortable embracing both the native, and non-native side of my heritage. I find both backgrounds showcase the best of me. The Scottish and Native sides are amazing, vibrant, strong cultures and by extension people. I feel some days that I am still raising myself, so I worry about how skilled I am at raising her. As a teenager this was shocking, and horri...

Wei Wai Kai Woman. Saturday, January 13, 2007. Posted by Julie R. Sunday, January 07, 2007. 300 reasons not to forget lessons of Wounded Knee. By TIM GIAGO (NANWICA KCIJI). It was after a night so cold that the Lakota called it "The Moon of the Popping Trees," because as the winter winds whistled through the hills and gullies at Wounded Knee Creek on the morning of Dec. 29, 1890, one could hear the twigs snapping in the frigid air. Thus began an action the government called a "battle" and the Lakota peop...
