Congrats Jordan! The rest of the island is just learning what we already know. This young man is awesome and a role model to other Aboriginal youth. His understanding of what it means to be native in the modern world is apparent in all his work. His committment to giving back to his community by working with Aboriginal youth, Elders, and women across the island has marked him as a leader.
