Modern use of #BlackfooySyllabics

However the newspaper here has stopped using the syllabic translation in their headers

There's also a documentary about a racial motivated murder that uses Syllabics spelling of the victim's Surname

Today, I attended the Lynden Many Bears’ Descendants Memorial Competition Pow-Wow at Piiksapi Memorial Pow Wow Arbour in Siksika.

Beautiful gathering to honour the legacy of Sinopotokan & his descendants, bringing together family, community, & visitors.

Siksika Nation files legal challenge against province’s coal development decision The Siksika Nation says it's about more than just environmental concerns, saying development of the area would put its culture at risk.

Indeed. Go #Siksika! And good on @northshorenews.bsky.social for reporting it.

First Nation seeking court ruling on Alberta ending coal mining moratorium EDMONTON — An Alberta First Nation is asking a judge to review the provincial government's decision earlier this year to end its moratorium on coal mining.

Prime Minister Carney announces Canada’s G7 priorities ahead of the Leaders’ Summit Fifty years ago, in the face of upheaval and geopolitical tensions, a small group of advanced economies formed what is now the G7 – a forum for co-operation, stability, and shared prosperity.

“This year’s Leaders’ Summit in #Kananaskis, Alberta, will take place on the traditional territory of the #BlackfootConfederacyNations of the #Kainai, #Piikani, & #Siksika, & the #StoneyNakodaNations comprised of the #Bearspaw, #Chiniki, & #Goodstoney #FirstNations, & the #Tsuut’ina #FirstNation.

I fully support the #Siksika and wish them well in court.

It’s poetic justice to see SmithNWesson hauled into court for ‘unconstitutional and unreasonable’ reasons. 👍🏻

Hoisted on her own petard 😂
