“All native languages are in danger of dying in Canada. We must each do our part in any way we can to preserve these languages. Cree is my native tongue, the first language I spoke when I came into this earth, so I feel it's my responsibility to do whatever I can to help preserve it.” CanadaIndigenousCreeNative Languages Author:Tomson Highway
“Language preservation is like saving the birds. We don’t want birds to go extinct. Imagine Canada without the sound of a loon. It’s a classic Canadian sound. Canada would lose part of its soul if loons went extinct. It’s the same thing with languages. Native languages, in this country, or in any country, are part of its sonic environment. It’s part of our connection with the earth. We must each do our part in any way we can to preserve these languages.” NatureCreeLanguage Preservation Author:Tomson Highway
