In 2004, the Gabriel Dumont Institute brought together Metis Elders from across Saskatchewan to hear their stories and learn about their past. Maria Campbell interviewed Jeanne Pelletier and Clementine Longworth. They share stories about educational experiences, transportation, the Michif language, living on the Road Allowance, employment, hunting, fishing, food, celebrations such as Christmas and New Year's, dancing, fiddling, clothing, medicine, midwifery, the 1885 Resistance, Louis Riel, jigging, square dancing, and more! Visit here at Metis Museum for more resources on Métis history and culture!
