Meet Hunter Cardinal, a man whose roots spread across a rich tapestry of Cree, Métis, Polish, French, and Russian heritage. Hunter will be joining us May 29 through 31st as our MC for Inventures 2024. Our conversation rounds all sorts of corners as we talk about the roles of preparation and spontaneity in practicing for his role. He explains what he refers to as the 'drywall effect' where creating the perfect atmosphere is as essential as the nitty-gritty of scripts and technical coordination. The role of an MC comes into sharp focus as we discuss how Hunter's presence at the helm can ensure an event's success by seamlessly knitting together speakers, technicians, and the audience into an unforgettable experience.In something I found to be particularly meaningful, Hunter describes his role as MC as oskâpêwis, or Cree for helper.  Tune in and learn about the potent blend of meticulous planning and the ability to pivot gracefully - the secret ingredients for maintaining control in a world brimming with uncertainties.Welcome to Shift!

Some argue that all of humanity today faces an identity crisis, as we struggle with rapid change and a deteriorating habitat -- and that the solutions may lie in indigenous social technologies, especially the power of the story.

His grandmother, too, reinforced a strong sense of giving back to the community. Living through the turbulent Red Power Days, the Indigenous movement from 1968 to 1974 influenced him in the work he does till today. Groups you were born into and belonged to: Lewis’ has a strong and prestigious Metis lineage from his grandmother. The Metis culture taught him hard work, determination, tenacity and to never give up. The Woodland Cree side of his family includes Treaty signatories. This responsibility has taught him that all Canadians have obligations to each other. He finds threads of indigeneity woven into his political identity as a social democrat – looking after people, seeking social justice, and making sure everyone has enough. Temperament and personality influencesLewis is a diplomat and peace-maker, and is kind and easy-going. Growing up, he learned that the world is filled with naysayers, but he meets their lack of faith with perseverance, consistency and clarity of vision, and heart-work.A time I became aware that my way of doing things was cultural and specific to my cultural experienceIn Grade 4, during a schoolyard game, his classmates were deciding who the toughest child was, and Lewis wanted to participate. However, they told him he didn’t count. Advice to an employer to work with meLewis advises employers to actively listen by paraphrasing and be present in conversations. He also asks that employers keep their assumptions in check. More great insights from our guest! Lewis recommends reaching out to someone from the indigenous community to guide you, answer your questions and teach you more about indigenous traditions and knowledge.
