"The archive is an invaluable record of voices that have long passed, said Crowfoot. They tell stories both traditional and personal — tales of residential schools, for example.There's powwow music and there are country songs. Phone-in shows from remote Indigenous communities. Crowfoot thinks there's a feature film as well. And it's priceless evidence of how the Cree language has changed over nearly 60 years."=====================
