*SPEAKERS:*

*Andrea Bastien *works with Indigenous Climate Action. Self described as 
a ‘maker of things’ across artistic mediums such as dance, beat making, 
dj’ing, beadworking, design, and visual arts, Andrea Bastien reflects 
her multi-platform practice to her cultural lineage. Belonging to the 
Otter Clan from the Blackfoot (Blood, Peigan), Cree and Anishnaabe 
nations, this is a portion of her multi-ethnicity. Living in the space 
between, her work as a whole is informed by this. Andrea has an 
extensive, continuous and evolving relationship with music and community 
engagement, one that brings her to a variety of cultural and educational 
projects and events. This led her to work with organizations such as 
Redwire NYM, UMAYC, Indigenous Media Arts Group, Raven Spirit Dance, 
imagineNATIVE, Toronto Aboriginal Youth Council, TDSB Aboriginal 
Education, and Naadmaagit Ki Group along with many others. In her 
leisure time, under her DJ name Ariel, Andrea has played sets at venues 
such as the Art Gallery of Ontario, The Vancouver Art Gallery, and Yonge 
and Dundas Square, at events including Manifesto and imagineNATIVE, as 
well as opening for artists like Anderson .Paak, Kaytrananda, Daniel 
Caesar, and Tanya Taqaq.

*John Cutfeet* (Kitchenuhmaykoosib Inninuwug) is Health Transformation 
Initiative Internal Lead, with Nishnawbe Aski Nation. From 1999-2007, 
John was band councillor for Kitchenuhmaykoosib Inninuwug (KI) – an 
Oji-Cree community 600 km northwest of Thunder Bay – with responsibility 
for lands and environment. John has long worked on issues related to 
mining, development and peace, and coordinating watershed work in 
Indigenous communities. He is co-author of Keeping the Land: 
Kitchenuhmaykoosib Inninuwug, Reconciliation and Canadian Law. John is 
currently an inaugural research fellow at the Yellowhead Institute. He 
lives in KI and continues to engage in the traditional pursuits of 
living off the land.

*Todd S. Gordon *is author of Blood of Extraction: Canadian Imperialism 
in Latin America and Imperialist Canada, social justice activist based 
in Toronto, and professor at Laurier University.

*Joeita Gupta* is a Toronto tenant advocate and broadcaster. As a 
student, she served on the University of Toronto Governing Council 
(2009-2011) and was an executive member of the Association of Part-time 
Undergraduate Students (APUS).
