Born in Burlington and living in Toronto for the past decade Mike is of mixed heritage—Mi’kmaq English and Irish—and remains deeply connected to his community of Membertou First Nation in Unama’ki (Cape Breton). With over 15 years of experience as an educator Mike is passionate about making history engaging and accessible sharing stories that bring the past to life. He currently works as an Instructor at the Ontario Federation of Indigenous Friendship Centres. Previously Mike supported some of the most barriered indigenous community members in finding employment education and training at Miziwe Biik. Before that he worked as a Historical Blacksmith and Leatherworker at The Village at Black Creek. After Black Creek he continued to develop his leatherworking skills making medicine pouches rattles and drums. An avid outdoorsman Mike finds inspiration in hunting fishing canoeing and camping—activities that deepen his connection to nature and tradition. Whether exploring the wilderness or leading a game of Dungeons &amp; Dragons he believes in the power of storytelling to educate inspire and bring people together.Start Point: David Crombie Park Basketball Court (West Side) (115 Scadding Ave)Our staff and volunteers will be at the tour's starting location 30 minutes prior to each tour.
