A big Farewell and Mahsi Cho cookout took place in my little community of Old Crow yesterday for our RCMP Constable Pierre Wideman and his beautiful family before they head out to their new transfer.

Old Crow has a tradition of giving a heartfelt send off to the RCMP that serve our community and that’s what took place under blue skies and a hot sun!

The Wideman family touched all our lives with Pierre connecting with our young men, Anika cooking for our community and learning to sew from some of our professionals! Their 6 children will be missed everyday by all the kids who played for endless hours together ❤️.

Mahsi cho to all our volunteers who set up, cooked, baked and helped with clean up. You all are appreciated!!

In Old Crow, conversations often start with a simple question: “how’s it going?”

The cost of groceries. The availability of housing. The strength of our communities. The future for young people. The present realities of our Elders who wish to stay in community and deserve to age with dignity.

What’s something you think decision-makers need to understand about life in your community?

Farewell and God bless to our local Elder, Allen Benjamin! Off to complete an overland trek our ancestors used to do many many years ago!

Just a few moments from summer in Old Crow so far. Hope everyone is finding time to enjoy the season in their own way.

The Porcupine caribou herd has sustained our people for generations. It is part of who we are.

As the herd faces growing pressures, VGFN and our partners are calling for stronger protection of the herd and the habitat it depends on.

Looking after the Porcupine caribou means looking after our culture, our food security, and the generations still to come.
