Opening

Dorothy Taylor
Elder, Water Walker, and Knowledge Keeper Dorothy Taylor is from Curve Lake First Nation and is a member and founder of the Mississauga Sacred Water Circle. She routinely teaches to our youth that all Our Relatives can help us all with the pressures of the climate crisis. She likes to explain Indigenous spiritually for those who will listen, and what it means for those of us concerned with the fate of the planet. In the past, Dorothy was also responsible for youth involvement and job placement through her role as economic development for Curve Lake First Nation. It was often said around the community, if a youth got a job or passion for the protection of Mother Earth, then Dorothy was not far behind.
