The Liard First Nation’s language department is being recognized by Canada’s premiers for decades of work done to promote and preserve the Kaska language.
The Council of the Federation announced the winners of its annual Literacy Award this week. Each year, a recipient is announced for each province and territory.
“We are very excited and just glad that the work over the years is being recognized.”Martina Volfova, language director with the Liard First Nation in Watson Lake, Yukon
“This kind of work is just ongoing, and it’s like generations — multigenerational.”
Volfova says the language department has worked hard for many years to document the Kaska language, make recordings and transcripts, and collect traditional knowledge.
