Proudly sponsored by Type Diabeat It, the event was a wonderful opportunity to swap a book, enjoy a complimentary coffee, and discover ways to get involved with local initiatives.
Attendees brought a gently used book to trade—completely free—and invited fellow book lovers to join the fun. Everyone was welcome.
We enjoyed connecting with everyone on August 23rd at 5 PM at Variety Cafe, 466 Dufferin Ave, London. Together, we built community, one story at a time!

The Saugeen Pow Wow brings together dancers, festival-goers, and families to celebrate our culture, share stories, enjoy delicious food, and connect through our sacred ceremonies. It’s a space where we honour our ancestors, embrace our identity, and foster unity among our people.
Powwows have always been more than just a gathering — they’re a heartbeat for our community, a celebration of resilience, and a reminder of the strength that comes from coming together. The food shared at the event is also a vital part of our culture, nourishing both our bodies and our spirits.
That’s why I keep coming back — to honour our roots, support our dancers, enjoy our traditional foods, and keep the spirit of our culture alive for generations to come.

Self-Care Through Hair – Cut Culture Barbershop, July 6, 2025
This wasn’t just about haircuts — it was about connection.
Men came together to laugh, share, and open up. We created a space where it was safe to talk about stress, manhood, healing, and growth — the kinds of conversations that don’t always get spoken out loud.
Barbershops have always been more than a place for a fresh fade. They’re hubs for community, culture, and care.
That’s why I keep showing up — to hold space for dialogue that matters and to remind men they don’t have to carry everything on their own.

Truth and Reconciliation 2024 Moving Forward Decolonizing Foraging: Amplifying Indigenous Knowledge
Respect for the land and all life forms is at the heart of our worldview. We recognize the power and spirituality of nature, and we maintain a deep connection to our ancestral lands. Guardianship of the land means careful management and preservation for future generations.
During colonization, European settlers banned Indigenous peoples from gathering food, even as they depended on the same foraged species. The Powhatan peoples, for example, were pushed off their traditional grounds, and their foraging practices were deemed ‘primitive’ to justify displacement. We would tap box elder maples for syrup and gather biscuit root, wild strawberries, currants, juneberries, cattail shoots, and acorns. When these plants disappear, the cycle is broken.
