While in-person gatherings are not possible for this year\u2019s Indigenous Awareness Week, PO1 Katerina Stewart plans to look for ways to celebrate and connect with other Indigenous members virtually.<\/p>\n

\u201cI like to learn about other Nations and their cultures, to connect with other Indigenous people and share time together, said PO1 Stewart, who grew up in northern British Columbia in a Nisga\u2019a community called Gitlaxt’aamiks (formerly New Aiyansh).<\/p>\n

Due to current restrictions to stop the spread of COVID-19, events to mark Indigenous Awareness Week \u2014 celebrated each year in the week following Victoria Day \u2014 will be held online only. A different experience but one that still offers the opportunity to connect with other Indigenous people from different regions.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know my own community and our traditions, but I always like to share and learn from others, that has always been important to me,\u201d said P01 Stewart.<\/p>\n

A 19-year member of the Royal Canadian Navy, P01 Stewart joined through the Aboriginal Pre-Recruit Training Course and works as Senior Demolition Instructor with Bedford Rifle Range\/Naval Fleet School Atlantic. She has taught in the RCN\u2019s Raven Program \u2014 held at CFB Esquimalt, in BC \u2014 and from 2017 to 2019 was a recruiter for the Canadian Forces Aboriginal Entry Program (CFAEP), a program where young people learn about the different job\u00a0and training opportunities available to them in the military.<\/p>\n

\u201cI really enjoyed my time with that program. I liked meeting the young people and showing them that an Indigenous person is able to make it through and get to a senior rank. When you come from a small community \u2014 as many young Indigenous people do \u2014 you don\u2019t know about the opportunities that are available and what the military has to offer,\u201d said PO1 Stewart.<\/p>\n

PO1 Stewart\u2019s career has already taken her across the country and around the world, most recently on deployment with HMCS Toronto<\/i>, but she views her highest honour as the times she has carried the DND\/CAF Eagle Staff for different ceremonial events.<\/p>\n

The Eagle Staff, which was created in 2002 as a result of a vision shared by CPO2 (ret\u2019d) Debbie Eisan and PO2 Chris Innes, is the travelling symbol of unity for Indigenous people in the military, representing Indigenous traditions and reinforcing the values of respect and inclusivity for all members of the defence community, past and present.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is so humbling to carry it,\u201d said PO1 Stewart. \u201cIt gives a feeling of great pride, not only in the current serving members but those in the past that have paved our way. It is an overwhelming feeling.\u201d<\/p>\n

To carry the Eagle Staff is a significant honour that involves first being chosen and then receiving teachings and guidance \u201cto understand and respect\u201d the tradition, explained PO1 Stewart, who received her teaching in 2016 from Moogly Tetrault-Hamel, Indigenous Advisor to the Chaplain General.<\/p>\n

PO1 Stewart had hoped to carry the staff when CPO2 (Ret\u2019d) Eisan was commissioned as Honorary Captain of HMCS Margaret Brooke<\/i>, the second Arctic and Offshore Patrol Ship, last November. This wasn\u2019t possible due to COVID-19 restrictions, which was especially disappointing as CPO2 Eisan was one of the creators of the DND\/CAF Eagle Staff, she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt would have been so significant,\u201d said PO1 Stewart. \u201cDebbie Eisan is a wealth of knowledge. I really love learning from her; she has taught me a lot.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
