- Abstract
This paper provides a first-hand account in Michif of one family's forced departure in 1939 from Ste. Madeleine, a small Métis community in southwestern Manitoba. In providing the original Michif text with both free and literal English translations, this paper aims to contribute to the accessibility of Métis historical-personal narrative in the traditional languages of the communities.
