Meadow Lake man brings his experience to UN forum
A local Dene man has taken his experiences as a young Indigenous Canadian from Meadow Lake to a world forum recently.
Mitchell Anderson just arrived back to Saskatchewan from Geneva, Switzerland, but this was no ordinary trip. He participated in a UN Forum on minority youth around the world, and the issues they face.
The Meadow Lake-born Dene man is a United Church minister-in-training, and is currently pursuing a Master of Divinity at St. Andrews College in Saskatoon. Anderson was chosen to attend the three-day event last week on behalf of the United Church of Canada and the World Council of Churches.
Anderson it was a surreal, eye-opening experience from start to finish.
