The Métis Man

Tansi (hello, how are you?)

I’m Shawn McDonald, The Métis Man from Kikino Métis Settlement here in Northern Alberta, Canada. 

I created this channel to preserve our elders’ stories, Cree language, Métis music, Indigenous culture, gospel songs, and life on the land. I also speak openly about the impacts our people carry—from residential schools to homelessness, addictions, and the healing we find through community, faith, laughter, music and tradition.

This channel is for Indigenous youth searching for identity, for non-Indigenous people who want to learn with respect, and for anyone around the world who wants to understand who we truly are. If you believe our stories matter and want to support Indigenous-led storytelling, I invite you to subscribe and walk this journey with me. These are real voices and real teachings, saved so they’ll never be lost.

Ekosi Mâka (that’s it for now).

Shawn McDonald,
The Métis Man…
