Who we are now
is not defined by our history.
It’s presented by what we leave behind:
the seeds we plant
that future generations
are privileged to climb.
So who are WE—now?
As Canadians?
As immigrants to this native nation
that has become home
to folks from every country
on the face of this earth?
How do we build this nation
for our Indigenous stewards
to receive what they deserve?
How do we find the gold
after being buried in the dirt?
