Six Westman communities will be able to host a second year of lessons
in the Michif language, thanks to funding from the federal goverment.

The Manitoba Métis Federation Southwest Region will offer 14 bi-weekly
lessons in each of the six communities. The classes, taught by an
elder fluent in Michif, are intended for children, young people, and
adults. Children aged 3 to 7 will also be invited to attend an
additional half-hour session focusing on song and rhyme before each
class.
