Being able to speak Inuktitut on Hockey Night in Canada is like a dream come true for Pujjuut Kusugak.  "It's just one of those things that you wished and you fantasized about but now it's a real thing that's coming up," he said.  Kusugak, and a small collection of other passionate speakers, will get the chance to speak their own languages soon on Hockey Night in Canada (HNIC) which will broadcast three games in Plains Cree and three games in Inuktitut this NHL season.  APTN will air the games in Cree on Jan. 18, Feb. 8 and Feb. 22 and the games in Inuktitut on March 8, March 22 and April 12.

can not resist a chance to talk about indian horse. it’s about this guy living through the residential school system by playing hockey. its got a really great balance of hockey being a sport that you love and can help you and hockey being a culture that hates on indigenous people. its really heavy at some parts so i’d definitely skim the plot for triggers if you need to but its really good. its based on a book too if you like reading

yes its a good one! read the book in grade 10 english and have seen the movie. soo fundamental imo

Besides Veronique and Lenasia, do we know of any other First Nations/Native American wags?

That's a good question. I don't know of anyone else other than those two.
