George Paul was on a mountaintop in Alberta when The Honour Song came to him. It is shared with you here in English, French, and Mi’kmaw.
At many official events or spiritual ceremonies among First Nations across the country, a song is sung by the participants. This song was born in the heart and mind of George Paul, a Mi’kmaw from Metepenagiag, after an arduous journey. This illustrated album tells the story of the birth of this song and its importance to First Nations.
