This is inevitable of course, and it comes to us all, but it is bitter-sweet to reprint the volume now. The passing of these Elders is great loss for their families and the wider community. We are grateful that they gave us some of their stories here, and that others have chosen to honour the Elders by continuing to read, teach, and learn from what is recorded in this book. These are short stories drawn from long and complicated lives, and they are good stories to learn with. Merci and meegweetch again to the Elders and others who worked on this volume &#8211; thanks especially to Margo Yacheshyn, Pamela Fry, Lynda Williams and Antonia Mills who helped to get things in place to get the web-based edition up, and the second printing done!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">(Description Source:\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/ir.lib.uwo.ca\/cgi\/viewcontent.cgi?referer=&amp;httpsredir=1&amp;article=1186&amp;context=aprci\">Aboriginal Policy Research Consortium International<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><em><br \/>\nAuthor<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"><strong>Mike Evans<\/strong> is a professor at UBC Okanagan.
