Ask a wall scratcher about work ethic and I guarantee you, after you wipe the spit off of your cheek, that they will mention the bible or nazis or something... They are insanely proud of those scratched walls a kilometre underground...

Step dancing at its finest. Like sean-nos would've been danced on the flagstone floor with not much space in the wee kitchens of our ancestors. A great mix of steps by this gentleman.

He's so close to the floor that he looks to be Dancing Sean nòs Irish step rather than Cape Breton step. Lovely 😊

My mom had a strong resilience; though she was sent to shubi residential school, upon getting out of shubi, she lived in saint John for a little while, and then hooked up with my father who spoke fluent Mi’kmaw and they later got married and she learned her Mi’kmaw language from him…because, she says she remembered and never forgot, and that she just needed to speak it again.
