Water Warrior Autumn Peltier, the Powerpuff Girl?

Oct. 14 marked Indigenous Peoples’ Day in the United States. The day has historically been celebrated as Columbus Day in the U.S., but a number of states have decided to observe Indigenous Peoples’ Day instead. They recognize the Indigenous populations that were displaced and decimated after Christopher Columbus and other European explorers reached the continent. And this year, the American celebration had a very Canadian appeal, if you looked in the right place.
