Metis Women Stories

This Métis Women's Stories shares a series of vignettes that carry wisdom, stories and experiences as told and remembered by Sophie McDougall.   Sophie was born to Robert James Boyer and Mary Leona McDougall on December 22, 1928, in St. Louis, Saskatchewan (an original Métis settlement) situated on south banks of the beautiful South Saskatchewan River.  In conversation with her grand-daughter Crystal Lee Harris we learn of Métis values, ways of life, history,  knowledge about a specific place, kinship and wellness practices and much more.  Tune and listen closely to Métis Women's Stories. 

Special acknowledgements to Sophie and Crystal, to your families,  to the research team and St. Louis community partners, to Marcel Petit and the Canadian Institute for Health Research for helping make this happen.  Maarsi, Cindy Gaudet
