The next book in the Negahneewin Reading Series is by Metis author, Cherie Dimaline. Cherie is from the Georgian Bay Metis Community, but she currently resides in Toronto, ON. Cherie loves to be recognized as a writer of Indigenous stories. She doesn't consider herself a Canadian writer because "what is now known as Canada; it means something different," to her.
Cherie's writing always involves her story and community, a story that is deeply connected to the displacement of people from their ancestral land on Drummond Island, a now super valuable piece of "cottage country."
