Last night I watched "Indian Horse." A Canadian film that connects hockey and Indigenous issues. What a can of worms that film turned out to be. Issues of Wabaseemoong Independent Nations, bad nuns and very bad priests. With shout outs to Reggie Leach.  ;)
What a depressing movie--most likely it is the truth about how First Nation families were/are treated by the government.
One thing leads to another with me. Next thing I know, I am reading about Japanese mercury experts push Canada to help Grassy Narrows.

Not sure if it will be blocked in your location, though

It is not blocked for me.
I am making a suggestion for one of EG's fundraisers to go to the the University of Manitoba's National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation project or a similar type of charity for reconciliation.

Great @Bart Ell ! I believe it will open some minds. I never heard about Canada’s Residential Schools and the indomitable spirit of Indigenous people.
The woman who played the grandmother in INDIAN HORSE touched my heart.

Edna Manitowabi is an amazing woman.

The Philly / PittsburgH connection @ShayP .
Of course I was a Reggie Leach fan back in the day. He is perhaps best remembered for being one of only five players, the first Flyer and, to date, only non-goaltender in history to win the Conn Smythe Trophy.
Of course I hate the Pittsburgh Penguins.  ;)
FYI-Leach is of Ojibwe ethnicity, a member of Berens River First Nation in Manitoba. His son, Jamie Leach played in the NHL for parts of 5 seasons, winning the Stanley Cup with the Pittsburgh Penguins in 1991 and 1992.

Reggie Leach set the NHL records for most goals in a single post-season with 19 in 16 games, surpassing the Montreal Canadiens' Newsy Lalonde's 1919 mark of 17 goals, and longest consecutive games goal-scoring streak in the playoffs at 10, bettering the 7 set by another Canadien, Maurice Richard, as his team went on to be swept in the Final by, ironically, Montreal. @Bart Ell;D > cheesy poutine smile.
The latter record remains unrivaled, but the former was matched by the Edmonton Oilers' Jari Kurri in 1985, although Leach established it in 2 fewer games.
