SUMMARY:Shalene Wuttune Jobin- What does it mean to uphold indigenous economic relationship?
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an informative conversation with Dr. Shalene Wuttunee Jobin who shares the intersections of settler colonialism and economic exploitation in the region known today as Canada. We’ll learn how economic advancement is intertwined with the exploitation of indigenous communities and what indigenous worldviews can teach us about miyo‐pimâtisiwin ᒥᔪ ᐱᒫᑎᓯᐃᐧᐣ (the good life) and harmonious econimic relationships. Dr. Jobin draws inspiration from the profound knowledge systems of the nehiyawak ᓀᐦᐃᔭᐊᐧᐠ (Cree) people and will underscore two pivotal arguments: the foundational relationship between settlers and Indigenous populations was one of economic exploitation\, and that Indigenous economic ties are constitutive and deeply rooted in connections to Land\, Water\, and the intricate web of life they sustain. In this talk Dr. Jobin offers insight that enable us to reimagine how we can aspire to the good life with all our relations.

SUMMARY:Peninsula Players Presents: Halfway There
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, May 16 – 7:30PM\nFriday\, May 17 – 7:30 PM\nSaturday\, May 18 – 2:00pm & 7:30pm \nAdults $30\nSenior/Student $25 \nThere’s no such thing as a secret in Stewiacke\, Nova Scotia. Not when the gossips meet for coffee every day at the local diner. Vi\, Rita\, Mary Ellen\, and Janine are all as close as can be\, and they know everybody’s business. But when Sean\, a heartbroken doctor\, moves in to take a temporary job at the clinic\, he tips the Maritime town that’s famous for being halfway between the North Pole and the equator off its axis. This feel-good comedy from the most-produced playwright in Canada will envelop you in a familiar warm hug that shares the relief of finding your people. \nContent Warning: This show contains references to sex\, the death of a child and drinking and may not be suitable for all audiences.
