Shhhh…. SHHHH… Did you hear that?..

Ma-ma-kwa-se-sak (Memeguayiwahk)!!!

Hold onto your candy this Halloween because these little tricksters have a sweet tooth! 🍭🎃
The Ma-ma-kwa-se-sak, otherwise known as “Little People” according Métis folklore, are known to live near riverbanks, lakes, and beneath the rocks. They're said to love playing tricks and sneaking a sweet treat or shiny object whenever they get the chance.

So, if a few candies disappear from your Halloween haul, don't be too quick to blame your little brother or sister. It could be a mischievous Ma-ma-kwa-se-sak stopping by for a treat! 🍬

🎃♾️🎃♾️🎃

The Ma-ma-kwa-se-sak (Memeguayiwahk) are figures found in Métis oral traditions. This Halloween post shares an interpretation inspired and adapted from Métis folklore as shared by the Métis Museum of Canada: Metis Folklore: Little People, Ma-ma-kwa-se-sak or Memeguayiwahk.https://www.metismuseum.ca/media/document.php/14521.Little%20People%20Metis%20Folklore.pdf

A Statement from MN–S President Glen McCallum
Comments made yesterday by Assembly of First Nations National Chief Cindy Woodhouse Nepinak regarding Métis people are unacceptable and we reject the characterization that our race and our Nation is non-existent. Suggesting that Métis people are simply pretendians or First Nations people who have been misidentified is harmful, ignores generations of Métis history, governance, resistance and self determination.
