Enter Poem or Quote (Required)Required Blueberry Festival in Sioux Lookout Travelling north (on an adventurous drive) Off the Trans-Canada on King’s Highway 72, In Northwestern Ontario, I crossed the bridge at the Frog Rapids Narrows Of the English River system And entered the town of Sioux Lookout On Pelican Lake, “Hub of the North” And gateway to Lac Seul. Legend has it, as told by the elders, That in days past, a mountain lookout Was established by the Ojibwe for them To scan the horizon For oncoming Sioux warriors Who had unfriendly intentions And intercept them Before they could storm the camp. While I was in Sioux Lookout During the “Blueberry Festival” Held in August To celebrate the Creator’s abundance, I wandered about the town, Enjoying the sights and sounds, And noticed the sadness In the faces of the Anishinaabe people. I stopped to admire a native mother Attired in a skirt with jeans underneath, And who dressed her pretty little girl the same, Both of them wearing embroidered jackets, And I thought how out of place they looked In today’s world of modern technology— The younger, with a sparkle of curiosity, And the older, less spriteful, melancholy. Gone are the traditions! Gone is the culture! Gone is the respect due one to another, And it’s heartbreaking to know That the Europeans are responsible For these deviant behaviours, And I cannot keep from thinking About the residential schools. The town begins the celebration With a community blueberry bake-off Followed by the weeklong list Of sports activities and music festival. The mornings begin with blueberry pancakes Topped off with maple syrup and side entrees Of bacon or sausages, followed by picnics of hot dogs, Hamburgers, steaks, and blueberry desserts. The air in the North is refreshing, Void of that smell of congestion, And the space is wide open; Unlike the city, where people are confrontational From the anxiety associated with daily living, The traffic, and the pressure! It was nice to escape city life and enjoy Sioux Lookout’s Blueberry Festival.
