Dialogue for Life V Conference
Montreal, QC

I gave a presentation to the Dialogue for Life participants on December 4, 2007. There were about 18 participants who participated in the presentation. I gave a presentation for about an hour. During the presentation I talked about; who I am/family, where I am currently living, what I do, talked about my goals and talked about why I was at the conference. I explained to them about what NAHO and NARMP were, talked about getting more education, benefits of leaving home and wrapped up the presentation (conclusion). Before I asked the audience if they had any questions about what they heard, I asked 3 questions and gave prizes to those who got the correct answers to my questions. In between the presentation, we played a game known as Ukaliq, tuugaalik and tulugaq. I had several questions from the audience near the end of the presentation. At the end of the presentation, I sang a traditional song (Qaumatillugu Suli) and drummed to it. After I drummed to that song, I invited volunteers to try out our traditional drum (qilauti). There were a couple of volunteers who tried it out. The audience were fascinated by my presentation, in the end of my whole presentation, several participants came up to me and made positive comments about what I talked about.
