DESCRIPTION:\n\nThe 1975 James Bay and Northern Quebec Agreement was made p
 ossible with the hard work and conviction of a collective group of Indigen
 ous leaders. The agreement is fundamental in getting the Quebec government
  to recognize the specific rights of the Cree and Inuit Peoples. We just n
 eed to look at the world around us to see that the rights people have foug
 ht so hard for can easily be taken away. This presentation will be a messa
 ge to the current and future Indigenous leaders to do what Konrad Sioui en
 courages - “to not be complacent and to be mindful that these agreements s
 hould not be taken for granted.” This event will be held in French.\n\nAbo
