  • @kgaudry01050809 my dad went to school with medric they were friends until my dads passing in oct of 1981 My dad use to listen to medrics tunes all the time my dad was also a jack of all trades and loved the fiddle , guitar and accordian .My family still goes to willow bunch every summer for fun times.

  • My 2011 New Years eve party musique, Merci, pour l'musique michif.

  • COOL check out my video called "Louis Riels Last Letter" music by my late grandfather Mederic Gaudry (Metis from saskatchewan)

  • My grandfather was Robert Grant, born to Metis parents but adopted in the United States. Since Metis are, by definition, a mixed people, I still consider myself entirely Metis. The same way the grandchild of a Mestizo would still be Mestizo in Latin America. Metis pride!

  • My dad used to do the Red River Jig on our kitchen floor and then he'd get all of us kids going and getting wild and silly. He's been gone now 26 years March 4. He'd be 82 now. Dad, I miss you so much...here's to you!

  • Way to go Hap, I hope all is well with you. Cheers old friend!

  • Who is the author of the painting that's shown for the first seven or so seconds of the video? Does the work have a title?

  •  This music bring tears of Joy to my eyes! So beautiful...my peoples music. My heart soars!

  • I recently have found out I have Metis heritage..I keep finding walls when trying to find out my family's origins.
