The Great Debate: Modern Innovations
We are going to attempt to hold our debates on TEAMS mid-April (-ish!).
-> More information will be coming your way in the next 1-2 weeks.
-> We are all learning new software, there will be some hiccups along the way as we embrace this new and exciting way of learning!
-> The goal is to make our class feel connected still even if we aren’t able to see each other in our classroom. With patience, I am sure we can make this work!
-> we will be taking things week by week

ONE DAY IN THE LIFE OF NOAH PIUGATTUK Zacharias Kunuk, Canada, 2019
Winner of the VIFF 2019 Best Canadian Film Award
Run Time: 113 mins . Rated G . Screening Times: Friday February 28th - 10:00am
Baffin Island, 1961: Noah sets out on a traditional Inuit hunt only to run headlong into a Canadian government emissary offering sweets, money, and assimilation. In the film's extended centerpiece, Zacharias Kunuk (Atanarjuat: The Fast Runner) crafts a remarkable real-time dialogue that encapsulates the multiple tragic fault-lines running deep between the indigenous peoples and the colonizers. Humourous and uncompromising, this is an important film for anyone engaged with the idea of Reconciliation.
