It is where one will truly hear and see all the different types of dancing, singing and languages that make up first nation communities across Turtle Island. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5956378\" data-originallang=\"en\">I attend the powwow every year with my family so that I can meet up with friends and absorb more teachings about the Algonquin traditions. This year is going to be particularly special, since we have achieved a nationally significant milestone for reconciliation between Canada and Kitigan Zibi. We signed an historic memorandum of understanding on reconciliation, which includes a global settlement offer with over $116 million in compensation. With this deal, the Algonquin of Kitigan Zibi can invest to protect their endangered language and create new businesses and jobs that help develop our regional economy.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5956379\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Improving this relationship between our government and the Algonquin of Kitigan Zibi is a top priority for me as an MP, and I love doing my work at the powwow.</p>",

C'est l\u00e0 que l'on peut vraiment d\u00e9couvrir tous les diff\u00e9rents types de danses, de chants et de langues qui composent les communaut\u00e9s des Premi\u00e8res nations de l'\u00eele de la Tortue.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5956378\" data-originallang=\"en\">J'assiste au pow-wow chaque ann\u00e9e avec ma famille afin de rencontrer des amis et d'assimiler plus d'enseignements sur les traditions algonquines. Cette ann\u00e9e sera particuli\u00e8rement sp\u00e9ciale, puisque nous avons atteint un jalon d'importance nationale dans la r\u00e9conciliation entre le Canada et Kitigan Zibi. Nous avons sign\u00e9 un protocole d'entente historique sur la r\u00e9conciliation, qui comprend une offre de r\u00e8glement globale pr\u00e9voyant une somme de 116 millions de dollars d'indemnisation. Cette entente permettra aux Algonquins de Kitigan Zibi d'investir pour prot\u00e9ger leur langue, qui est en voie de disparition, et de cr\u00e9er de nouvelles entreprises et de nouveaux emplois qui contribueront au d\u00e9veloppement de notre \u00e9conomie r\u00e9gionale.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"5956379\" data-originallang=\"en\"> L'am\u00e9lioration de cette relation entre le gouvernement et les Algonquins de Kitigan Zibi est une priorit\u00e9 absolue pour moi, en tant que d\u00e9put\u00e9, et j'adore participer au pow-wow dans le cadre de mon travail.</p>"
