Professors Aaron Mills and Mark Walter, in collaboration with the Indigenous Law Association de droit autochone () welcome Anishinaabe elders (Keeseekoowenin Ojibway Nation) and (Ojibway听community of Onigaming), to the Faculty of Law for a public lecture.

The elders have declined to give their presentation a title, but have said its purpose will be to explain Anishinaabe law, with elder Copenace saying she will offer an Anishinaabe woman's perspective on Anishinaabe law.

Both of these elders have considerable experience in governance, community, and academic contexts. Their leadership is widely recognized by indigenous communities across northwestern Ontario and Manitoba. Most importantly for us, they are both wonderful supporters of students.
