Abstract

The first song was written in one morning for the CBC hockey contest on October 5, 2013. The song is about hockey but it turned into a song about my dad’s role in our family life in western Canada circa 1960’s. The next two songs I can attribute directly to the legacy and fallout of residential schools and the foster care system in Alberta on my family life. The fourth song was sparked by my daughter’s make-up business and home life with children.
