We have invited Dave Smith has been sharing the stories and history from his Indigenous heritage with Saint John since 2021 with his business First Nations Storytelling.

We will be meeting up at the Ihtoli-maqahamok – The Gathering Space stage bright and early at 8:15am for our walk which will take place between 8:30am – 9:30am.
THERE ARE ONLY 20 SPOTS! Please sign up in advance.
Below is an excerpt from Dave’s website:
“Indigenous influence in the Saint John area is largely overlooked. Prior to the establishment of Canada’s oldest incorporated city, a flourishing culture already existed.
Discover the local history of the Wolastoqi and Mi’kmaq peoples from a unique Indigenous point of view while meandering along the harbor and the Beautiful River – Wolastoq. Walk along a historical portage route and over archaeological sites and become acquainted with the timeless wisdom of our ancestors. Learn how stewardship of the earth should look in a modern world while respecting and celebrating the traditions of the past.
Prior to the landing of European settlers in what is now called New Brunswick, thriving cultures existed for thousands of years which lived in harmony with the land and the life that resided on it. Survival on this land depended on ingenuity and knowledge wrought from a sometimes harsh and unforgiving environment.
Passed down through the generations were the spoken teachings that served as lessons to the younger generations to ensure their survival into the future. Despite today’s world of modern conveniences and industrialization, respect and protection of the land is a way of life still followed today in every aboriginal community across Canada.”
