Amanda and I were treated to a wonderful, wonderful evening. A big part of the gala event was a tribute to our 24 Aboriginal role models from the Rawlco Role Model Campaign. Leanne Bellegarde was outstanding as she highlighted the achievements of these special individuals.
Monica Goulet was MC and did a wonderful job. The event was put on by the Aboriginal Business Students Society at the Edwards School of Business and it was a fantastic trip down memory lane for me as I was reunited with so many of the role models we met over the course of the summer.
We met Sean Willy's mom - emotionally tributed in his profile and had fun with the unique Darlene Johnson and the cutest couple ever,

Luke and Erin Levesque. 
One of the best parts of the night was that each table featured a young aboriginal high school student. These students were coached on mixing and mingling and let me tell you - everyone could learn a lesson about "how to" from them as their poise and charm was evident as they worked the room. Talk about inspirational.
For anyone who hasn't been there yet - I really encourage you to visit http://www.thisisyourfuture.ca/
I know their stories will move you as they did us.
