Nadia George

On the occasion of Earth Day this April 22, the David Suzuki Foundation and POP Montreal invite you to celebrate our planet and its inhabitants in a spirit of unity, in favour of justice and peace. The "Entendre la Terre" evening combines musical performances by Beatrice Deer and Waahli and testimonial speeches by inspiring activists, such as actress and Mi'kmaw activist Nadia George and the young people of the Kahnawake delegation at the COP26.
