Mi\u2019Kmaw are a Canadian First Nation whose homeland, called Mi&#8217;kma&#8217;ki, overlaps much of the Maritime provinces, specifically all of Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and parts of New Brunswick and Newfoundland and Labrador.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These glyphs, or gomgwejui&#8217;gaqan, were derived from a pictograph and petroglyph tradition, and are logograms, with phonetic elements used alongside, including logographic, alphabetic, and idiographic information. The gomgwejui&#8217;gasultijig take their name from the gomgwej (plural: gomgwejg) or sucker fish whose tracks are visibly left on the muddy river bottom. Since Mi\u2019Kmawi&#8217;sit uses several spelling systems, other ways to call Suckerfish script include: komqwejwi&#8217;kasikl or gomgwejui&#8217;gas&#8217;gl.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"220\" height=\"144\" src=\"https:\/\/flatbayband.ca\/fbb-wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/hyro-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1889\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.5277777777777777;width:442px;height:auto\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Mi%EA%9E%8Ckmaw_hieroglyphic_writing\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-luminous-vivid-orange-color\">Click Here For More Information<\/mark><\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"su-accordion su-u-trim\"><div class=\"su-spoiler su-spoiler-style-fancy su-spoiler-icon-plus su-spoiler-closed\" data-scroll-offset=\"0\" data-anchor-in-url=\"no\"><div class=\"su-spoiler-title\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"button\"><span class=\"su-spoiler-icon\"><\/span>Learn the Mi\u2019Kmaw Language<\/div><div class=\"su-spoiler-content su-u-clearfix su-u-trim\">\n\n\n\n<p><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-luminous-vivid-orange-color\">Mi\u2019Kmaw<\/mark><strong> <\/strong>is an Eastern Algonquian language spoken by nearly 11,000 Mi\u2019Kmaw in <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Canada\">Canada<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/United_States\">United States<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-luminous-vivid-orange-color\">We facilitate learning of the Francis-Smith orthography.<\/mark> The Francis-Smith orthography was developed in the 1970s by Doug Smith and Bernard Francis.

The Mi\u2019kmaw culture is a philosophical way of living a holistic way of life; which is a blend of applying practical methods and spiritual awareness.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spiritually, Mi\u2019kmaw people believe that ALL life was created by one, all-powerful Being, the ultimate Creator. They see themselves as merely being one life-being within a natural world of many life beings. This world view is the foundation for their interdependence and interconnection with all aspects of the natural world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Respect is the basic element of Mi\u2019Kmaw spirituality and the belief that all living things on earth have a spirit (including humans and animals) make it important to show reverence for life. Every aspect of life and death is holistic and connected, one to the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, unlike religion it tends to rely on the natural order of things and criticize man-made belief systems.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having said that, many Mi\u2019kmaw people follow various religions, while still honoring their Mi\u2019kmaw philosophy. In fact, Mi\u2019kmaw people were among the first indigenous peoples to accept Jesuit teachings and to intermarry with the settlers of New France.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"225\" src=\"https:\/\/flatbayband.ca\/fbb-wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/image.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1975\" srcset=\"https:\/\/flatbayband.ca\/fbb-wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/image.png 1024w, https:\/\/flatbayband.ca\/fbb-wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/image-300x66.png 300w, https:\/\/flatbayband.ca\/fbb-wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/image-768x169.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-luminous-vivid-orange-color\"><strong>Local Teachings\u00a0<\/strong><\/mark><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=8uui-2nGz_Y&amp;list=PLoNtj6LJ7nh0VkwGrDLDZWGaaW7MXp59D&amp;index=1&amp;pp=iAQB\">The Sweat Lodge&nbsp;<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=0SU4BKCsmr4&amp;list=PLoNtj6LJ7nh0VkwGrDLDZWGaaW7MXp59D&amp;index=2&amp;t=8s&amp;pp=iAQB\">The Medicine Wheel <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=imOQUi1Mb1Q&amp;list=PLoNtj6LJ7nh0VkwGrDLDZWGaaW7MXp59D&amp;index=3&amp;pp=iAQB\">Drum Teaching&nbsp;<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=sB4SaRzGLVg&amp;list=PLoNtj6LJ7nh0VkwGrDLDZWGaaW7MXp59D&amp;index=4&amp;pp=iAQB\">The Medicine Bag<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=WBxxfdqunRE&amp;list=PLoNtj6LJ7nh0VkwGrDLDZWGaaW7MXp59D&amp;index=5&amp;t=222s&amp;pp=iAQB\">Sacred Items &amp;
